🚀 The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is taking a giant leap into the digital future, and it's super exciting! 🤩
Imagine a group that brings together some of the biggest players like China, Russia, and India, working to make tech magic happen across Eurasia. That's the SCO for you! 🌏✨
This June, they set up a new alliance focusing on City Information Modeling (CIM)—think of it as a digital twin of our cities that helps us plan and manage them better. Pretty cool, right? 🏙️🛰️
The alliance, kickstarted by 11 Chinese institutions including the China Academy of Building Research and Tsinghua University, is all about sharing this tech with SCO members. It's like when you share your Netflix password with friends, but on a way bigger scale! 😄🎬
\"We will leverage tech innovations like digital twin to manage cities digitally, intelligently, and precisely,\" said Li Gang, deputy secretary of the SCO Demonstration Zone Party Committee in Qingdao City, east China's Shandong Province.
Qingdao is becoming a tech hotspot! In mid-May, another alliance was formed there to promote AI based on large data models among SCO members. Think AI-powered everything! 🤖💡
The alliance's 83 members include big names like China Mobile, Huawei, and Haier Cosmoplat. They're all teaming up to push the digital boundaries. It's like the Avengers assembling but for tech! 🦸♂️🦸♀️
On a national level, the Digital Technology Platform (DTP) for SCO countries was launched in September 2023. Companies like Xiaomi, JD.com, and Lenovo are onboard to boost digitalization along the Belt and Road areas. They're sharing their best practices in AI, big data, blockchain, and cloud computing. Sharing is caring, after all! 💻💖
The SCO's commitment to digital transformation shows a vision for a connected and innovative future. With the CIM alliance and the DTP, they're not just embracing digital transformation—they're empowering members to thrive in our interconnected world. 🌐🚀
