AMC

Robotics Appoints AI and Machine Learning Expert Dr. Ang Li as Chief Technology Officer

NEW

YORK – October 1, 2026 – AMC Robotics Corporation (Nasdaq: AMCI) (“AMC Robotics” or the “Company”),

an AI-driven robotics solutions provider, today announced the appointment of Dr. Ang Li as Chief Technology Officer. Dr. Li will lead

the Company’s technology strategy and AI roadmap, with a focus on advancing autonomous intelligence, AI-powered perception, and

edge computing capabilities across the Company’s robotics platforms.

The

appointment marks an important step in AMC Robotics’ strategy to build increasingly intelligent and autonomous robotic systems

for real-world environments. Drawing on Dr. Li’s expertise in edge AI, distributed machine learning, and embodied intelligence,

the Company plans to strengthen the integration of advanced AI models with its robotic hardware and accelerate the translation of emerging

AI technologies into scalable commercial robotics applications.

Dr.

Li is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park, where

he will continue in his academic role while serving as Chief Technology Officer of AMC Robotics. Prior to joining the University of Maryland

in August 2023, Dr. Li served as a Research Associate at Qualcomm AI Research and previously conducted research at Alibaba DAMO Academy.

His research spans edge AI, distributed and federated learning, efficient AI systems, and embodied intelligence, with a particular focus

on enabling advanced AI models to operate efficiently and reliably in real-world environments.

Dr.

Li holds a Bachelor of Science from Henan University, a Master of Engineering from Peking University, a Master of Science and Ph.D. from

the University of Arkansas, and a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Duke University. His research has been recognized

with the NSF CAREER Award, Cisco Research Award, CPAL Rising Star Award, IEEE TCCPS Outstanding Ph.D. Dissertation Award, the ACM KDD

Best Student Paper Award, and the Duke ECE Department Outstanding Dissertation Award.

“We

are very excited to welcome Dr. Li to the AMC Robotics leadership team,” said Sean Da, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of

AMC Robotics. “AI is becoming increasingly central to the capabilities and differentiation of modern robotic systems. Dr. Li brings

deep expertise at the intersection of artificial intelligence, edge computing, and intelligent systems, and we believe his leadership

can help accelerate our evolution toward more autonomous, adaptive, and AI-native robotics platforms. His experience will be especially

valuable as we advance our existing products, develop new robotic capabilities, and pursue broader commercial applications.”

“Robotics

is entering a new phase in which advances in AI can fundamentally expand what machines are able to perceive, reason about, and accomplish

in the physical world,” said Dr. Ang Li, Chief Technology Officer of AMC Robotics. “AMC Robotics already has a strong foundation

in robotic hardware and real-world applications. I am excited about the opportunity to build on that foundation by bringing advanced

AI, edge intelligence, and embodied intelligence more deeply into our platforms. I look forward to working with the team to translate

these technologies into practical capabilities and build the next generation of intelligent robotic systems.”

Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This

and variations of these words or similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify

forward-looking statements.

These

forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions, or results, and involve a number of known and unknown

risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other important factors, many of which are outside of the Company’s control, that could

cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements, including statements regarding

the management’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions, plans, prospects or strategies. These risks, uncertainties, assumptions,

and other important factors include, but are not limited to: (a) challenges in opening operations in new jurisdictions, including but

not limited to compliance with local ordinances, obtaining any necessary permits and regulatory oversight; (b) the ability to recognize

the anticipated benefits of the new operations; (c) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company;

(d) the ability to continue to meet the applicable stock exchange listing standards; (e) changes in applicable laws or regulations, including

legal or regulatory developments (including, without limitation, accounting considerations); (f) the possibility that AMC Robotics may

be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; (g) AMC Robotics’ estimates of expenses and profitability;

(h) buildout and production line commissioning of the Company’s robotic manufacturing facility and the corresponding target completion

date; and (i) other risks and uncertainties indicated under “Risk Factors” contained in AMC Robotics’ Annual Report
