To promote the deep integration of technological and industrial innovation, Suzhou has identified new materials as a key sector for developing new quality productive forces based on local conditions. In recent years, leveraging forward-looking strategic planning and a robust industrial ecosystem, Suzhou has partnered with CNBM to advance the Suzhou Advanced Materials Valley project, jointly building a new hub for materials industry development. At the conference, construction of the AI Advanced Materials Research Institute was officially launched. With Suzhou Advanced Materials Valley as its core platform, the institute will focus on AI-powered materials R&D and industrialization, establishing a comprehensive platform that integrates technological breakthroughs, commercialization of research outcomes, talent development, and industrial services. It aims to become a nationally leading innovation hub for AI-enabled advanced materials.

The CNBM Sci-tech Innovation Fund has a total scale of 5 billion yuan. Its first-phase fund, valued at 1 billion yuan, was signed at the conference and will be invested in key sectors including new materials, new energy, semiconductors, and high-end equipment manufacturing, with the goal of cultivating a group of internationally competitive hard-tech enterprises.
