June 1 — At the Haidian-hosted Beijing Satellite IoT Industry Development
Conference, Beijing formally established its first Space Compute Industry
Innovation Center. The center was approved by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of
Economy and Information Technology and is led by Beijing University of Posts and
Telecommunications with Haidian District support and participation from industry
leaders. Operating under a company-plus-alliance model, it targets six R&D
areas: space-native compute chips with high reliability and heat tolerance;
high-performance, ultra-interconnect space compute payloads; space compute
satellite platforms and standards; large models optimized for power and
reliability constraints in space; integrated space–ground communications,
telemetry networking and cloudification; and commercialization of space compute
services and tokenized operations. The center aims to build an end-to-end space
compute ecosystem across
chip–hardware–platform–intelligence–network–application.
