BEIJING,
June 21,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A report from China Daily:
China's status as a leading industrial powerhouse
in the world will become even more pronounced in the era of AI, as
artificial intelligence technology continues to advance in
China and the digitalization of
the manufacturing industry progresses further, said business
leaders and experts on Friday.
They also said the development of intelligent
technologies in China will reshape
many industries and create more growth opportunities for
enterprises at home and abroad.
They made the remarks during the "CEO: Grow with
China" roundtable, which was jointly held by China Daily, the Publicity Department of Tianjin
Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, and Tianjin
Industrial and Information Technology Bureau.
The event is a sideline event of the ongoing
World Intelligence Expo 2024, which opened on Thursday in
Tianjin.
"AI technologies and (other) innovative
technologies in China will be
moving in the right direction," said Rani Jarkas, chairman and CEO
of Cedrus Group, who believes China will become a top leader in the
area by 2030 to 2035.
"It's very clear that alongside the investment in
capacity, we've seen the introduction of greater automation, as
well as the application of digital manufacturing techniques. And we
see that in our supply chain in China today," said Julian MacCormac, regional director of
Greater China at Rolls-Royce.
Wei Jianguo,
China's former vice-minister of commerce, said the global
manufacturing sector is currently being restructured. The sector is
moving towards becoming more digital, intelligent and low-carbon,
as well as to provide higher-quality services.
"It is foreseeable that digitalization will
continue to empower China's industrial upgrades and smart
manufacturing. The country is expected to make new contributions to
the global industrial progress and economic development," said Zhao
Zhongxiu, president of the University of International Business and
Economics in Beijing.
Lan Jun, general
manager of Agela & Phenomenex China, said that driven by
government support and market demand, China's smart industry is
poised to play an increasingly important role on the global
stage.
Business leaders and experts at the roundtable
thoroughly discussed new models and driving forces for the
development of Tianjin's
intelligent industries and smart manufacturing. They believe the
city's high-quality development will create more opportunities for
both Chinese and foreign companies.
Huang Yanxiang, co-founder and CEO of
CarbonNewture, said Tianjin's
smart zero-carbon port and low-carbon industrial parks are typical
examples of integrating eco-friendly practices and green
technologies into manufacturing processes to increase
competitiveness.
Cedrus Group recently launched a fund in
Tianjin's Binhai New Area, to tap investment cooperation
potential in the biomedicine industry.
