The 2025 Zhongshan AI+ Industry Innovation Conference convened at the Fuji Cloud digital industrial park in Zhongshan's West District on August 13, drawing over 200 attendees including representatives of AI technology providers, leading manufacturers, trade associations and financial institutions.
The event saw the launch of the East District Digital Intelligence Industry Fund co-initiated by the subdistrict office and private capital partners Fuji Cloud and China Science and Techinnovation Capital. With a size of 100 million yuan ($13.7 million), the fund aims to incubate benchmark "industry+AI" projects and establish a self-reinforcing ecosystem for AI sector development.
During the conference, the Zhongshan Bureau of Industry and Information Technology unveiled the AI Committee under the Zhongshan City Financial Innovation of Science and Technology Association. Meanwhile, the Zhongshan Bureau of Science and Technology designated eight industrial parks including Fuji Cloud as "Zhongshan Sci-Tech Industry Financial Innovation Service Stations."

Looking ahead, East District will utilize Fuji Cloud to drive aggregation of AI-related sectors such as intelligent chips, smart manufacturing, foundational models, data labeling and data trading, targeting the creation of an AI industry demonstration zone within three years.
