Integrating AI infrastructure and local operation expertise to build a trusted delivery system for enterprise digital-intelligent transformation.
As AI technology advances rapidly, enterprise digital and intelligent transformation demands higher standards for computing infrastructure, cloud platform services and technical operation capabilities. Especially amid enterprises’ cross-regional expansion and global footprint, balancing technical capacity, compliance operations and localised services to establish a stable and trusted delivery framework has become essential for advancing digital transformation.
How can intelligent computing infrastructure and localised operations create synergies? How can global technologies adapt to real requirements across different markets? Hongqiao International Science and Technology Week 2026 will focus on AI infrastructure development and localised operation of global technologies. It explores pathways to combine intelligent computing infrastructure with proven cloud platform operation know-how, supporting enterprise digital transformation and fostering partnerships for companies entering China and going global.
Hongqiao International Science and Technology Week 2026 will take place at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai) from November 20 to 22. As one of its six thematic stages, the Smart Infrastructure Stage focuses on AI infrastructure, computing networks, data centres and energy management, exploring the upgrade of digital infrastructure and industrial innovation trends.
The agenda covers AI infrastructure, computing power development, data centre construction and energy efficiency optimisation, fostering deep integration of technological innovation and industrial deployment.
At this forum, Tao Tang, CTO of Shanghai BlueCloud Network Technology Co., Ltd., will deliver the keynote speech Intelligent Computing Foundation × Localised Operation of Global Technologies: Trusted Delivery for Enterprise Digital-Intelligent Transformation. With 26 years of experience in IT technology and enterprise operation management, he specialises in software development, supercomputing and cloud computing. Since 2012, he has overseen the local rollout and operation of Microsoft Cloud services including Azure and Office 365 in China. Drawing on VNET Group’s AI infrastructure and next-generation AIDC strategy, together with compliance practice of Microsoft Azure in China, he will discuss the synergy between intelligent computing foundation and localised operation, and share trusted delivery pathways for enterprise digital-intelligent transformation.
