Zhejiang province issued the Implementation Plan for AI‑empowered Manufacturing Digital Transformation (2026–2030), prioritizing data governance and high‑quality dataset construction. It will support firms in recognizing industrial data assets on balance sheets and registering industrial data intellectual property. The plan urges enterprises at digitalization level 2.0 or above to build unified data‑management platforms and implement multi‑source, heterogeneous data modeling and classification/grading. Focusing on integrated circuits, apparel/textiles, consumer electronics and modern home sectors, Zhejiang will promote upstream‑downstream collaboration across the data lifecycle — collection, cleaning, labeling, testing and use — to produce high‑quality, reusable industry datasets. It will pilot product master‑data standards and industry dataset projects and accelerate development of a trusted industrial data space.
