Advanced technologies for industry - International reports. Advanced technology landscape and related policies in China

The objective of the international country reports is to explore the technology and policy landscape of selected non-European countries. Country performance in advanced technologies is presented based on patent, trade and investment data. This particular report is an update and extension of the China report published in 2020 (available at https://ati.ec.europa.eu/reports/international-reports/report-chinatechnological- capacities-and-key-policy-measures) and zooms into two technology ecosystems notably into Artificial Intelligence/Big Data and Advanced Manufacturing/Robotics. The reason why these fields have been selected is that they represent technologies where China has been developing particularly fast recently and important lessons can be drawn for the EU. The analysis relies on the data collected within the ATI project complemented with expert opinion.
