About the association
The Tianjin Robot Industry Association (TJRIA) was registered in 2015. It is a professional social organization serving collaboration, innovation and market development across Tianjin’s robotics industry. It works under the guidance of the Tianjin Municipal Science and Technology Bureau and connects companies, universities, research institutes, government departments and professional service organizations.
Its services span robot systems, core components, systems integration, service robots, special-purpose robots and applications. Work includes company visits, business matchmaking, policy information, industry research, research–industry collaboration, technology commercialization, association standards, intellectual property, training and international exchange.
Membership and organization
The core directory distinguishes chair, executive vice-chair, vice-chair, council member and member organizations. These are organizational membership roles, rather than individual job titles. The secretariat is the contact point for member services and collaboration.
The association’s total membership figure and the number of published core directory records are separate measures.
