百余家人形机器人企业混战:初创与跨界者涌入,行业如何穿越周期
Bei Ke Cai Jing· 2025-12-10 09:13
"人形机器人行业的泡沫主要积聚在'技术概念'与'估值'的错配上。"庚辛资本创始人张家康在接受新京 报贝壳财经记者采访时坦言。 随着宇树机器人春晚表演的出圈,具身智能进一步受到市场关注、资本热捧,人形机器人似乎在一夜之 间从科幻走进现实,但热潮之下,"断层"也逐渐显现——企业估值在资本助推下快速攀升,而核心技术 突破、商业化应用的进程却相对滞后。 人才流动也随之加速。许多从业者从自动驾驶、传统机器人、互联网等领域转向具身智能。地方政府亦 成为重要推手。多地建设"人形机器人创新中心",通过政策扶持、场景开放、采购支持等方式培育本地 企业。北京、上海、深圳等地已形成产业集聚效应。 近期,国家发展改革委政策研究室副主任李超在新闻发布会上表示,"速度"与"泡沫"一直是前沿产业发 展过程中需要把握和平衡的问题,这对于具身智能产业来讲,也是一样的。其介绍,我国目前已有超过 150家人形机器人企业,其中半数以上为初创或"跨行"入局。 "这对鼓励创新来讲是一件好事,但也要着力防范重复度高的产品'扎堆'上市、研发空间被压缩等风 险。"李超表示。 在多位从业者与投资人眼中,具身智能作为当前的热点赛道,资本关注高、融资活跃属于正常现 ...
