HONG KONG , July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KEENON Robotics, a global leader in commercial service robotics, showcased its humanoid and specialized robot portfolio at LEAP East 2026, held from July 8 to 10. As one of the world's most influential technology events, LEAP made its first expansion beyond Saudi Arabia with its Asia-Pacific debut in Hong Kong. The inaugural LEAP East brought together more than 300 exhibitors, over 300 speakers, thousands of global attendees, and more than 200 confirmed investors. At the event, KEENON presented a series of real-world service scenarios, including a robotic café, retail interaction zone, guest reception experience, delivery services, and smart cleaning demonstrations. Through these scenario-based presentations, KEENON demonstrated its "general-purpose humanoid robot + specialized robot" strategy and highlighted how robots can take on practical, role-based tasks in commercial environments.
