From the introduction of digital-driven units to accelerate the digital transformation of enterprises, to the co-building of the Provincial Future Manufacturing Center, deepening the integration of aerial and ground computing networks, and introducing BAAI large model resources to promote the industrial application of related technologies... On December 5th, an AI-packed Artificial Intelligence Innovation Conference was held at Binhaiwan Bay Area.
As one of the sub-forums of the 2024 Dongguan Global Investment Promotion Conference, several rounds of major agreements have yielded significant results for Binhaiwan Bay Area.
The Provincial Future Manufacturing Center, which was signed at the event, will serve the “AI + Manufacturing” strategy, focusing on the development of industrial brains and research in industrial process measurement and control technologies. It aims to build a comprehensive platform for industrial innovation, application, research, and development that integrates artificial intelligence across the industrial sector.
AI agents are important carriers for the deployment of large-scale AI models across various industries. The Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, which was signed at the event, will collaborate with Pazhou Lab and the Beijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence to provide technical support. They will develop AI agents within enterprises, connecting data and applications from both small and large models, helping Dongguan’s manufacturing enterprises accelerate their digital and intelligent transformation and upgrade.
With the current trend of artificial intelligence moving towards practical applications, and leveraging Dongguan’s rich manufacturing application scenarios, the signing of multiple AI platforms aimed at the market and applications will usher the AI industry in Binhaiwan Bay Area into a period of growth and development.
As the new engine for Dongguan’s high-quality development over the next thirty years, why was the Artificial Intelligence Investment Sub-forum held in Binhaiwan Bay Area during this conference?
“The Dongguan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have decided to pool the city’s resources to build Binhaiwan Bay Area into an artificial intelligence hub, accelerating the cultivation and development of new productive forces, injecting new vitality, and providing new momentum for Dongguan’s high-quality development. This is the main reason why the conference chose to hold the Artificial Intelligence Investment Sub-forum here in Binhaiwan Bay Area,” said a relevant official from the Dongguan Municipal Bureau of Industry and Information Technology during a recent press conference for the Dongguan Global Investment Conference.
After this signing, how will Binhaiwan Bay Area develop its artificial intelligence industry?
Moving forward, Dongguan will support Binhaiwan in establishing itself as an AI hub, focusing on the economic empowerment of new AI-driven models, new life experiences, and new governance methods. The city will accelerate the cultivation of new productive forces and create a demonstration zone for AI innovation and development in the Greater Bay Area.
Binhaiwan will focus on empowering new industrialization with artificial intelligence, aiming to create three major industrial clusters: a trillion-level AI + manufacturing sector, a hundred-billion-level AI + future life sector, and a hundred-billion-level AI + urban governance sector.
Specifically, Binhaiwan will plan for 1,500 acres to build “Lingxi Island” as the core area of the AI hub, accelerating the layout in multiple fields such as industrial modular space, AI agents, and computing power supply. It will attract high-quality domestic and international large-scale AI model platforms and AI agent development platforms, and launch multiple “AI+” application scenarios to empower a wide range of industries.
On the same day as the Artificial Intelligence Innovation Conference, the groundbreaking ceremony for major projects in Binhaiwan Bay Area’s 2024 fourth quarter was held, including the vivo Binhaiwan Smart Park among 10 major projects.
This is a vivid reflection of the dynamic development of Binhaiwan Bay Area over the past seven years. In recent years, thanks to its unique geographical advantages and resource endowments, Binhaiwan Bay Area has gradually become one of the best platforms in Dongguan for carrying new technologies, new products, new business formats, and new models. Leading enterprises have flocked to Binhaiwan, major projects are progressing steadily, and the vigorous scene of large-scale investment attraction and development continues to unfold.
At the conference, representatives from large-scale scientific devices, universities, and leading enterprises shared insights on topics such as “AI + Large Scientific Devices,” “Artificial Intelligence and the Future Development Models of Dongguan and Hong Kong,” “Huawei Cloud PanGu Large Model’s Exploration and Practice in the Industrial Sector,” and “vivo Blue Large Model’s Application Practice,” sparking intellectual exchanges.
Currently, the new wave of technological transformation, represented by artificial intelligence, is far-reaching and is expected to become one of the key drivers of the new economic growth cycle. As the new engine for Dongguan’s high-quality development over the next thirty years, Binhaiwan Bay Area, born by the sea and striving for maritime strength, will seize the opportunities brought by the new technological revolution and accelerate the creation of a demonstration zone for AI innovation and development in the Greater Bay Area, contributing to Dongguan’s high-quality development.
