Huzhou, China – 22 January 2026

We are honoured to share that TeknTrash Robotics has been awarded 3rd Prize at the Global Entrepreneurship Contest in Huzhou, China. Selected through a competitive expert review process, our project was recognised for its technical maturity, industrial scalability, and global relevance. Among 12 high-tech teams, TeknTrash was the only international company to receive an award, a strong validation of the real-world potential of our ALPHA humanoid robot. The competition was organised by the Wuxing District Government, a region actively building a robotics and advanced manufacturing ecosystem, aligned with the broader innovation momentum seen across the Yangtze River Delta.

Beyond the award itself, what stood out most was the pace of execution. From on-site evaluation to follow-up discussions, decisions moved fast — reflecting a market where policy support, capital alignment, and industrial deployment are tightly integrated. We see this recognition not as a finish line, but as an important step forward as we continue to scale ALPHA into real operational environments and deepen collaboration across global markets."
