China News Service, Beijing, November 3rd The 2026 Artificial Intelligence + Conference (GAI+C) with the theme of "Intelligence Starts a New Journey, Chain Gathering and Symbiosis" was recently held in Beijing.
Li Yan, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Zhongguancun Development Group, said in her speech that the Group, together with Haidian District and Zhongguancun University, jointly initiated the establishment of the Zhongguancun Native Engine, which will undertake the operation of the national artificial intelligence regional technology transfer and transformation center in universities, launch a special doctoral program in the field of artificial intelligence; promote AI high-level Performance chip testing and verification platform, inclusive computing laboratory construction; in March this year, it took the lead in establishing the Beijing Artificial Intelligence Association, and in July served as the secretariat unit of the Beijing Artificial Intelligence Industry and Education Alliance. Focusing on the "three lists" of talent, technology, and projects, it continues to open up the entire chain of transformation of scientific and technological achievements in the field of artificial intelligence.
Zhang Guangming, a member of the Party Leadership Group of Haidian District Government and Deputy District Governor, said that Haidian relies on its rich scientific and technological innovation resources to build a collaborative mechanism for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of five parties and six forces to deepen the in-depth integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. Ensure and promote the on-site transformation of national strategic scientific and technological achievements in Zhongguancun. Configure industrial policies, formulate a century-old Beijing-Zhangjiakou AI innovation ecological plan, and strive to create full-chain advantages that support the development of artificial intelligence.
Zheng Weimin, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, professor of Tsinghua University, and chairman of the Jiuyuan Intelligent Computing System Ecological Alliance, delivered a keynote report for the conference, proposing the forward-looking idea of building a unified software stack to support "one set of code, no modifications required" for cross-platform operation. He also suggested that a unified software system should be used to connect diverse domestic computing power to support large-scale model innovation and large-scale applications.
The "State-owned Enterprise Artificial Intelligence Scenario Co-Creation Partnership Plan" was launched at the conference. Zhongguancun Development Group will join hands with state-owned enterprises such as China Electronics, China Automotive Science and Technology, China Municipal North China Institute, State Grid Economic Research Institute, and China Digital Technology, as well as leading artificial intelligence institutions such as Jiuyuan Consortium, Zhipu Huazhang, Guanglun Intelligence, and Zhizhi Chuangyu to promote the precise connection between the real scene needs of state-owned enterprises and the main bodies of artificial intelligence innovation. The "China Artificial Intelligence International Application and Governance Cooperation White Paper" was released, and two major results were simultaneously launched: "Domestic Heterogeneous Reasoning High-Quality AI Token Factory Solution" and "Physical AI Operation Adaptability Evaluation Set" (ReAct-Manip).
In addition to the main forum, the conference also set up seven parallel sub-forums and special activities.
The conference was provided with academic guidance by Qiyuan Laboratory and was co-sponsored by the Beijing Artificial Intelligence Association, Zhongguancun Development Group, Jiuyuan Intelligent Computing System Ecological Consortium, Beijing Zhongguancun Science City Innovation Development Co., Ltd., and the National University Artificial Intelligence Regional Technology Transfer and Transformation Center (Beijing).
