Longgang District of Shenzhen held the Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Development Conference on May 21. At the conference, Artificial Intelligence (Robotics) Office of Longgang District was inaugurated, which would be the first government office in China that keeps committed to the artificial intelligence and robotics sectors.
Longgang District is one of the districts in Shenzhen that gathers various clusters of artificial intelligence enterprises. Over 300 enterprises in the industrial chain are located here, while over 28 artificial intelligence innovation platforms at national, provincial, municipal and district levels, are established here. The district boasts a mighty and solid foundation for the artificial intelligence development.
Over the past year, the district establishes the factor-guaranteed mechanism covering the political support, funds, computing power, data, innovation, talents and industrial space, while making every effort to push the development of artificial intelligence industry.
Longgang District would strive to carry out the “All in AI” strategy and try to become a birthplace and incubator of new-quality productive forces, with the efforts made to the various aspects, like the top-level design, scientific and technological innovation, scenario application, industrial ecology, talents selection and employment, basic education.
The Artificial Intelligence (Robotics) Office of Longgang District inaugurated at the conference, would take charge of the development planning, ecological construction, investment promotion, enterprise services, scenario promotion, safety management, and other works regarding the artificial intelligence and robotics sectors. It would further enhance the guarantee mechanisms for the development of the artificial intelligence and robotics.
Besides at the conference were Longgang District Three-Year Plan for Accelerating the Establishment of “AI Longgang” (2025-2027) and Longgang District Three-Year Plan for Developing into a Demonstration District Being Friendly to Embodied Intelligent Robots (2025-2027) released.
The People’s Government of Longgang District plans to input 10-billion-yuan-worth orders into the government-invested sectors, such as hospitals, schools, state-owned enterprises, during the upcoming three years, so as to support enterprises’ new AI technologies, products and services through a market-oriented way.
Longgang District would rely on Shenzhen (Eastern) Public Artificial Intelligence Service Platform to establish a distributed network of “local + introduced” computing power. And, the district would strive to guarantee commercial and quality computing power for the enterprises, by means of renting and purchasing computing power, seeking cooperation, etc.
The district plans to achieve in-depth application of global AI technologies to over 80% of the major industries and establish a nation-level source-open AI community by 2027, carrying out 100 model projects of space-and time-thorough AI application, reaching a over 100 billion yuan’s worth of the industry, and bringing over 1000 robots into application. The district aims to be the nation’s advanced and robot-friendly place where human beings and robots could co-exist harmoniously.
The district plans to build a pilot robots’ theater and a pilot robot-themed block, establish six public innovation-powered platforms, and create a variety of model application scenarios. It would accelerate to introduce embodied intelligent robots and the key technologies to the sectors, such as public security, city management, civil service.
Longgang District would cooperate with CSDN-- China’s largest IT technology community and service platform, in establishing the “application scenario releasing platform”, to timely publicize Longgang District’s demands for application scenarios, the relevant activities, the application cases and the like , so as to more efficiently have exchanges on the demands and the supplies, and to more concisely match the application scenarios.
Longgang District would also enhance the talent cultivation and development, through vigorously introducing world specialized and innovative talents and talent teams, supporting higher-education institutions in setting up embodied intelligent robot and the related majors, and encouraging the enterprises, universities and colleges, and scientific&research institutions to cooperatively develop embodied-intelligent-robot engineers.
At the Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Development Conference, Longgang District launched the global recruitment programme for hiring AI principals for the primary and secondary schools. “In the future, almost every industry and sector need being integrated with AI. The application of AI in the schools could help to sow the seeds of AI in the students’ heart. That benefits students’ further development.”
In the next stage, Longgang District would continuously grasp every change and opportunity to develop artificial intelligence industry and robotic industry, to speed up the development towards a demonstration district for the space- and time-thorough artificial intelligence application, and to be a modern, interesting, business-favorable, livable and quality place.
