While Da Vinci Remains in “Remote Control” Mode, Cornerstone Robotics Has Evolved to “Autonomous Operation”—A Technological Leap for Domestic Surgical Robots

For over two decades, the Da Vinci system has monopolized the global market for laparoscopic surgical robots, commanding prices as high as 20–30 million RMB per unit. This massive supply gap has created a historic opportunity for domestic alternatives. The globalization strategy of Cornerstone Robotics offers a valuable case study for the industry. In the first half of 2026, overseas shipments of Chinese laparoscopic surgical robots exceeded 154 units, accounting for 81% of the total volume for that period. Specifically, Cornerstone Robotics’ shipment breakdown—comprising four new domestic installations and five new installations across Hong Kong and international markets—clearly demonstrates that the overseas expansion of domestic surgical robots has moved beyond the proof-of-concept stage into a phase of tangible realization involving orders, installations, and clinical application. 01 The Hong Kong Pivot: A “Clinical Touchstone” of High Standards To understand Cornerstone Robotics’ overseas expansion strategy, one must first grasp the strategic importance ...

【EXPERT Q&A】When an overseas buyer sends an inquiry, how should the first sentence be replied to?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: When engaging in pharmaceutical foreign trade, many suppliers encounter this situation: You receive an overseas inquiry. The buyer only writes one sentence: “Please send me your price.” or “We are interested in your product.” Upon seeing the inquiry, many enterprises’ first reaction is to quote immediately. However, after sending the quotation, a common problem arises: the buyer does not follow up. Why? Because in the first round of communication, the supplier and the buyer may focus on different things. What the buyer wants to confirm is: Whether this product meets their needs? Whether the supplier has export experience? Can relevant documents be provided? Is the price suitable for their market? Yet suppliers often only focus on: When will the customer place an order? Therefore, the first response to an overseas inquiry is not just to reply to the customer, but more importantly, to initiate effective communication. I‌. Do not ...
