The East Asian Robotics Boom: Today’s Commitments and Tomorrow’s Challenges

Kim, Hyejin LU and Mobrand, Erik Johan LU (2025) In Global Outlook: Asia
Abstract
The robotic future is nearly here, and East Asia stands at the forefront of this shift. East Asian firms innovating in this sector are backed in various ways by governments committed to competing for leadership in robotics. This field promises to unleash heightened productivity and precision in manufacturing, while the opportunities in services are also enormous. The expanded installation of robots, as it is unfolding in East Asia, will also bring predictable and uneven social challenges.
