The government and leading enterprises empower medium and small-sized enterprises

For a long time, in the fierce competition among major leading companies, how to obtain innovative resources, increase exposure, gain more "opportunities", ensure the stable development of cash flow, and continue to achieve high-quality growth has been a daily concern for innovative companies upstream and downstream of the industrial belt.

As the core carrier of Pudong New Area and even Shanghai's automobile industry, Shanghai Jinqiao is one of the regions with the best industrial ecology. As a national-level economic development zone, Jinqiao contributes more than 1/4 of the industrial economic scale with 1/50 of Pudong's land. It is known as the region with the "highest per-mu yield" in Shanghai and even the whole country. Among them, the automobile industry has also become the first 100 billion-level industry in Pudong's development history.

Lv Dongsheng, Party Secretary and Director of Jinqiao Administration Bureau of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone Administration Committee and Director of Shanghai Jinqiao Economic and Technological Development Zone Administration Committee, said in his speech that Jinqiao Group must keep the track of future cars and future mobility, and is determined to become a leader in Shanghai and even in China in the track of intelligent connected cars and driverless driving ( future mobility). In the future, Jinqiao Group will build an ecosystem to gather more advanced and better market players in future mobility, so that their technologies and products can create a better future mobility ecosystem and industry in Pudong.

Facing the new round of intelligent wave, Jinqiao relies on its three major advantages of "legislation, industry, and scenarios", firmly grasps the opportunities of technological change, actively builds the future vehicle industry ecosystem, and launches the "Jinqiao Intelligent Connected Vehicle Testing Demonstration Zone", the world's first application scenario in the central urban area of a super-large city, and opens 234.5 kilometers of autonomous driving test road.

At the 2024Create@ "Future Mobility" Global Innovation Competition, Shanghai Jinqiao Intelligent Connected Vehicle Development Co., Ltd. officially released the "Jinqiao "Dual Intelligence" Collaborative Development Innovative Application Scenarios", taking the opening of major application scenarios as a starting point to provide a "testing ground" for new technologies and new products, and accelerate the formation of landmark results in the innovative application of intelligent connected vehicles.

The ten scenarios released this time include: L3 autonomous driving vehicle testing applications; driverless taxi travel; autonomous driving bus transfers; unmanned delivery and logistics; unmanned urban management law enforcement; unmanned sanitation; smart parking; unmanned charging; traffic light information services; and traffic incident information services.

The release of the ten major scenarios aims to further stimulate enthusiasm for innovation and allow "good scenarios to attract more good projects, and good projects to create more good scenarios." We welcome innovative companies to come to Pudong New Area, implement innovative scenarios, and integrate into the innovation ecosystem to jointly accelerate the dual-wheel drive of the development of the intelligent connected industry.

Dragana Kostic,Vice President of BMW Tech Office APAC, said: "BMW Group has always believed that innovation is the key driving force for the development of the industry. In the context of rapid technological changes and endless innovations in the world, we are fully aware of the importance of working together with global innovative forces. BMW Group will cooperate with all innovative companies with an open attitude. We hope to build a platform that gathers wisdom and stimulates innovation, and work with partners to create a new chapter in future mobility."

Qian Guobing, from Alibaba Cloud's Government and Enterprise Division, said at the competition that the development of cutting-edge technologies such as intelligent driving, autonomous driving, and vehicle-cloud-road-network integration has not only redefined the car itself, but also had a revolutionary impact on the entire industrial chain, value chain, and even the ecological chain. Alibaba Cloud is committed to providing advanced technology, easy-to-use products, solid services, inclusive computing power, and entrepreneur programs to provide our partners with "innovation acceleration" and improved business efficiency.

Alibaba Cloud's collaboration with more auto companies has further superimposed Alibaba Cloud's ecological resources in the fields of automobile manufacturing and cloud services, and enhanced the integration of innovative and entrepreneurial resources. By exploring the establishment of a vertical technology empowerment system, we will accelerate the service, empowerment and cultivation of high-growth technology-based innovative enterprises, and empower the transformation and upgrading of the Jinqiao Economic Development Zone and even the entire Shanghai automobile industry.

The local government and leading enterprises jointly empower medium and small-sized enterprises in the automobile intelligent industry chain. On the one hand, Jinqiao government of Shanghai has built an intelligent industry cluster effect through policy support, and built a relatively complete industry chain covering new energy vehicle, whole vehicle testing, core component research and development and production, and intelligent networked vehicle system integration and application. On the other hand, driven by Jinqiao government, more leading Internet + automobile companies are providing the strongest "hard support" for Jinqiao to build a trillion-dollar automobile industry cluster, empowering Chinese science and technology innovation companies.

Autonomous driving technology will completely change the way we travel

Smart cockpit, smart driving, autonomous driving, integrated collaboration of vehicle-cloud-road-network... The automotive industry has never been the intersection of so many technological changes as it is today, and the automotive industry has therefore begun its intelligent "transformation".

It is foreseeable that these intelligent technologies will bring revolutionary changes to the entire automotive industry chain, value chain, and ecological chain in the future. At the same time, companies that master cutting-edge technologies will also bring endless innovations to business models. Today, the real race between upstream and downstream companies in the automotive industry may have just begun.

Zhang Zailong, Professor at the School of Internet of Things, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, said in his speech that intelligent network technology is the use of autonomous driving, Internet of Vehicles, intelligent transportation and other means to achieve all-round connection and intelligent collaboration among vehicles, roads and people. The background is mainly traffic accidents, energy, congestion and other issues. The current mainstream of autonomous driving technology should be L2 and L3, and will gradually reach L5 (fully autonomous driving) in the future. In the future, autonomous driving will integrate sensor technology, artificial intelligence decision-making and other means to move towards greater intelligence and safety.

Zhang Zailong said that after autonomous driving gradually breaks through from the current L3 to L5 , autonomous driving technology will cover larger-scale commercial scenarios in the future and completely change the way people travel.

At the panel discussion, Professor Zhang Zailong from the School of Internet of Things, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Professor Ye Jianhong from the School of Transportation of Tongji University, Ding Hao, partner of Boyuan Capital, Guo Guanheng, vice president of Multidimensional Capital Investment, and Yang Xi, industry analyst at 36Kr, discussed the development, innovation and future trend of smart transportation. In Ye Jianhong's view, the coordinated development of intelligent connected vehicles and smart cities requires the integration of the three elements of automobiles, transportation and cities at the top level. Among them, the empowerment of intelligent connected vehicles on transportation is more obvious, and it is worth further exploration in both business model and operation model.
