The permit allows Pony.ai to charge fares for rides — without any human staff inside — from the Shenzhen international airport and Shenzhen Bay Port to key parts of the district of Nanshan , home to tech giants Tencent and DJI.

The permit does not cover trips across the entire space, limiting it to areas such as the financial sub-district.

The city is a coastal tech hub in southern China , sometimes dubbed the country's Silicon Valley .
