The first "Cross-Strait Innovation and Development Week" was held in Shanghai, with Taiwanese businessmen seeking cooperation in AI digital transformation

China News Service, Shanghai, September 29 (Reporter Miao Lu) "As soon as the meeting is over, I will go to discuss cooperation with mainland companies." At the first "Cross-Strait Innovation and Development Week" held on the 29th, Jiang Wenshun, founder of Taiwanese company Angelina, revealed at the roundtable forum.

At the "Changing Situation Innovation" consumer brand seminar held in Shanghai that day, to the left and right of Jiang Wenshun's seat were the heads of mainland artificial intelligence (AI) and real-time retail companies respectively. They hit it off when talking to each other and soon came up with the idea of ​​cooperation.

With the rapid development of AI, the consumption scene in mainland China is obviously different from that in Taiwan. Many Taiwanese businessmen are pursuing digital and intelligent transformation, and Angelina is no exception.

Jiang Wenshun said: "Mainland's AI technology is advancing very fast. We have no other choice but one word - chasing, chasing speed, chasing applications, chasing coverage. This makes it even more necessary to cooperate with mainland companies that can provide relevant supporting services. This can not only save time and costs, but also reduce trial and error costs."

Yuan Ye, director of the Straits Economic and Technological Cooperation Center, said that in terms of digital technology innovation and industrial empowerment, mainland China has abundant computing resources, massive application scenarios, and complete industrial systems. In addition, the huge market potential brought by its large market size will open up a broad blue ocean for "artificial intelligence +". Taiwan has outstanding technological advantages in fields such as semiconductors and electronic precision manufacturing, and the digital technology industries on both sides of the Taiwan Strait complement each other's advantages. It is time to increase cooperation.

Guan Zhongmin, former president of National Taiwan University, also believes that the development of AI in mainland China has advantages that are not found in many places. Entrepreneurs on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have broad space for cooperation in medical care, elderly care, agriculture, education, urban governance and other aspects. "Mainland AI adopts an open source model, which is cost-effective and has strong adaptability. In addition, mainland China has long established highly digitalized industrial and consumer application scenarios, which is more suitable for the implementation and development of AI applications."
