As sci-fi enthusiasts and visionaries around the world gathered at the 81st World Science Fiction Convention (WorldCon) in Chengdu, a fusion of gastronomic delights and cutting-edge technology captured their imaginations. Yum China, a beacon of innovation in the culinary world, made a captivating appearance at this celebration of imaginative futures.

Yum China’s presence at WorldCon is a reflection of its enduring commitment to innovation and technology in the culinary realm. The company has consistently pushed the boundaries at various expos, and many of these innovations have now become integral to its daily operations.
During the 20th China-ASEAN Expo held in Nanning from September 15 to 18, KFC’s green energy dining table took center stage.

This unique combination of sustainability and interactive entertainment exemplified Yum China’s dedication to creating unforgettable dining experiences.
The KI Colonel Robot, present at the same expo, stood as a testament to Yum China’s approach of integrating technology into its brand. This mechanoid, inspired by the iconic Colonel Sanders, could interact smartly with attendees, entertaining on demand through activities such as yoga, storytelling, remote video recording, and providing real-time weather updates. The KI Colonel Robot embodied Yum China’s commitment to a tech-integrated future.
Adding to the array of technological wonders, during the 2021 World Intelligence Congress in Tianjin, KFC and Pizza Hut unveiled self-driving vehicles equipped with contemporary amenities, including heating, refrigeration, and advanced data capabilities. These innovations were designed to enhance the on-the-go dining experience. Pizza Hut, in particular, wowed visitors with inventions like the intelligent fried rice robot and robotic servers, redefining the traditional dining experience.
In essence, Yum China’s vision for the future extends beyond what’s on the plate to how it’s served and consumed. Through consistent investments in cutting-edge technologies, Yum China doesn’t merely provide meals; it crafts unique experiences, ensuring that every bite offers a tantalizing taste of tomorrow.
