Shanghai, as China’s largest city, has become a hub for innovation and a blend of Eastern and Western cultures. On April 18, 2019, Bosch and Caohejing Hi-tech Park Innovation Centre opened the Shanghai Connectory, an IoT co-creation space that supports external entrepreneurs and corporate partners. Located in an iconic three-story building, the Shanghai Connectory provides resources for early-stage IoT startups, as well as mentoring and education to the local community on innovation and entrepreneurship. As the first Connectory space in Asia Pacific, the Shanghai Connectory is now part of a growing global brand with additional locations across the globe.
