1月4日，有市场消息称，宇树科技A股上市的绿色通道被叫停，但上市并未叫停。 彼时，宇树科技方面向国内媒体确认了此消息。 不过，在1月4日晚间，宇树科技却向国内媒体发表澄清称，该报道涉及公司上市工作相关动态情况的内 容与事实情况不符，公司未涉及申请"绿色通道"相关事宜。 "相关报道误导公众认知，已严重侵害我司合法权益。"宇树科技同时表示，公司上市工作正常推进，相 关进展将依法依规进行披露。 相关资料显示，A股上市绿色通道是指中国证监会及证券交易所为特定类型企业提供的优先上市审核机 制，核心特点是"即报即审、审过即发"。这个机制主要服务于两类企业：一是突破关键核心技术的科技 型企业，例如芯片、航空航天、量子科技等领域的"卡脖子"技术企业；二是来自特定地区（如新疆地区 或原贫困地区）的企业。 据了解，相关市场消息中透露，宇树科技A股上市的绿色通道被叫停或是因为"目前机器人赛道泡沫太 大了"，管理层希望能降降温。 若此次上市最终落地，宇树科技有望成为名副其实的"A股人形机器人第一股"。 除宇树科技外，众多具身智能企业也已相继启动IPO进程。 当前，人形机器人行业已从概念验证阶段逐步过渡至资本持续加注、发展方向不断聚焦 ...
