Southeast Asia Information Port News (www.dnyxxg.com) – On the morning of November 6th, the 2025 “International Internet Town” launch event was held in Wuzhen, Tongxiang, Zhejiang Province. At the event, a report on the achievements of the “International Internet Town” outlined three transformations Wuzhen has undergone in the past decade.
From a “world-class venue” to a “stage for defining trends”: This year, Wuzhen has hosted 370 exhibitions, competitions, and shows, attracting diverse groups to explore the latest trends. From a “famous tourist city” to a “digital business card driving the future”: In recent years, Wuzhen has hosted Zhejiang’s only national supercomputing center – “Wuzhen Light” – and partnered with China Unicom to establish a smart computing center, creating a dual computing power system of “smart computing + supercomputing.” From a “single enterprise” to a “thriving rainforest”: This year, Wuzhen has attracted over 30 companies across the industrial chain, including Nandu Lithium Battery, Youjia Innovation, and Yinjia Electronics, and is growing into a flourishing and vibrant industrial rainforest.
In the past, Wuzhen embraced the internet and cultivated the digital economy; in the future, facing the surging tide of the intelligent era, Wuzhen aims to build three "AI Cities."
**A City of "Electric Intelligence" AI Ecosystem:** Wuzhen aspires to become a vast AI testing ground, attracting global algorithm engineers, hardware enthusiasts, and innovative companies, making it a cradle of AI enterprises.
**A City of "Virtual-Real Integration" AI Culture:** Wuzhen will fully support the development of its internet culture cluster, allowing AI to ignite cultural creativity here. It not only aims to maintain its reputation as the "ceiling of ancient towns" but also to create a never-ending AI carnival, making internet culture the foundation of Wuzhen's AI ecosystem.
**A City of "Inclusive and Shared" AI Living:** Building upon AI education and AI hospitals, Wuzhen will conduct pilot tests and commercial demonstrations of high-level autonomous driving technology, exploring large-scale applications in scenarios such as scenic area shuttles and logistics delivery, allowing residents to experience the warmth, convenience, and greenness of the intelligent era.
At the event, several academicians, experts, and business leaders took to the stage to share their latest practices in three major ecosystems: scientific and technological innovation, application scenarios, and cultural tourism. Among them, Academician Li Jun of the Chinese Academy of Engineering focused on the scientific and technological innovation ecosystem, launching the Tongxiang Intelligent Connected Vehicle Digital Technology Research Institute, which will build a leading domestic autonomous driving R&D and testing platform in Wuzhen; Zhang Ranmao, Chairman of Unicom Smart Network Technology, launched the Intelligent Connected Vehicle Data Element Platform, providing comprehensive data services for the intelligent connected vehicle industry; and Li Bin, Senior Vice President of Sugon Information Industry, focused on the application scenario ecosystem, launching and showcasing characteristic application scenarios of "AI + Education/Healthcare/Elderly Care".
The event also included the launch ceremony of the Wuzhen Internet Culture Cluster Area. Baidu Smart Cloud, BOE Art Cloud, BlueFocus Group, Bilibili, and other internet companies became the first batch of "pioneer forces" to settle in the Wuzhen Internet Culture Cluster Area.
Rising against the wind, riding the wave of digitalization. Over the past decade, Wuzhen has witnessed a continuous surge of digital technology, transforming this ancient town into a golden name card of "Digital Zhejiang," and the outline of an "International Internet Town" is becoming increasingly clear.
