AWE Edition: Up to $100K AWS Credits & China Supply Chain Deep Dive
In Silicon Valley, we have witnessed the explosion of GenAI. But as AI moves beyond the screen into robotics, wearables, and smart terminals, every software company eventually becomes a "supply chain company" .
Are you looking for a breakthrough that simultaneously solves the three biggest challenges: "Compute Costs" , "Hardware Mass Production" , and "Capital Matching" ?
SVTR (Silicon Valley Technology Review), in partnership with AWS and AWE (one of the world's top three home appliance and consumer electronics expos), is officially launching the "2026 SVTR AI Venture Bootcamp · Spring Special Action" (Spring Cohort: AWE Edition).
This is not just an exhibition — it's a land grab for the best ecosystem position. At AWE 2026, we will be the only Silicon Valley delegation , stationed at the core of Hall W1's "Smart Digital Products Zone" . This isn't just the physical center of the expo — it's the ultimate high ground for traffic and resources:
We are looking for 15 high-potential Global AI Startups. Starting from Silicon Valley, standing on the shoulders of giants, landing in China, connecting globally.
