At the opening of the 26th China International Industry Fair, the Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology set four priorities: accelerate industrial
innovation by strengthening basic research and key‑technology R&D, reinforcing
firms as the primary innovation drivers, optimizing national innovation platform
layout and using national high‑tech zones to cultivate new tracks and speed tech
commercialization; advance industrial upgrading by maintaining a complete
industrial system, scaling applications of emerging industries, planning for
future industries and renewing traditional sectors — tailoring local strategies
to expand advanced manufacturing and deepen AI+manufacturing, with a strong push
to develop open‑source foundation models and industry‑vertical model clusters to
build world‑class firms; bolster intelligent software and hardware foundations
and increase guidance and support for enterprise digital transformation,
cultivating industry‑focused digital transformation service providers and
promoting smart factories and high‑standard digital parks; and build a mutually
beneficial industrial ecosystem.
