Over the next 10 days, they will visit China Maritime Museum and the Shanghai Astronomy Museum, as well as industrial hubs such as NIO House at Shanghai Tower and the Large Aircraft Industrial Park in Lingang.
The camp also includes an excursion to Suzhou, known for its historic gardens and silk production, offering a taste of the country's cultural heritage.
The schedule features dialogue with prominent scientists and wraps up with a friendly innovation competition between the American and Chinese teams.
