Gathering Momentum for Takeoff: Artificial Intelligence Drives the Rise of New Productivity

At the event, Zhonglou District released the "Changzhou Digital Economy Industrial Park Artificial Intelligence Industry Plan," comprehensively deploying an ecosystem of "computing power base + industrial chain + fund matrix + public platform" to accelerate the promotion of artificial intelligence technology from the laboratory to industrial scenarios. The establishment of a 1 billion yuan fund matrix, the release of 15 key application scenarios, and the signing of 33 projects covering the entire industrial chain, including data governance, industrial large models, autonomous driving, and AI digital humans, mark Zhonglou District's use of a collaborative innovation model of "universities + research institutes + enterprises" to promote deep integration of industry, academia, and research, opening a new chapter in AI-enabled high-quality development!

"Seamless docking" of technological innovation and industrial innovation is the core path to developing new productivity. As a pioneer in intelligent manufacturing and industrial digital transformation, Zhonglou District has gathered a group of leading enterprises such as Weiyizhizao and Jiuchou Technology, and has formed demonstration benchmarks in AI government affairs and industrial robots. The achievements of this conference will further promote the deep integration of artificial intelligence technology with the real economy, providing a "wisdom engine" for regional high-quality development.

Shangchun Zhizao: Taking Root in Zhonglou, Building a New Intelligent Manufacturing Ecosystem

As a representative of intelligent manufacturing enterprises rooted in Zhonglou, Shangchun Zhizao has been deeply engaged in the field of industrial automated weighing and filling for nearly 30 years. It is a national high-tech enterprise, a Jiangsu Province "specialized, refined, and new" enterprise and a "gazelle enterprise," and also a municipal-level "intelligent transformation, digital transformation, and network connection" service provider. The company focuses on providing high-precision intelligent filling solutions, serving high-end industries such as new energy, semiconductors, and pharmaceuticals and chemicals, and has received numerous national-level technical certifications and industry honors.

 

 

In 2025, Shangchun Zhizao opened a new chapter in its development and officially moved into the Xinxin Intelligent Industry Park in Zhonglou District. Relying on an intelligent production base of approximately 15,000 square meters, the enterprise will build a high-end intelligent manufacturing park integrating clean workshops, new energy electrolyte production lines, and a three-dimensional warehousing and logistics system. General Manager Du Mingchao said: "The rapid landing of the new base is inseparable from the strong support of the Zhonglou District government in policy support, resource docking, and industrial supporting facilities. In the future, we will closely follow the direction of "artificial intelligence + intelligent manufacturing," use digital innovation to improve production efficiency, and contribute more to the development of regional new productivity."

 

 

Moving Forward Together: Expanding Industrial Boundaries with Technological Innovation

In this conference signing, Shangchun Zhizao, as a project participant, will further deepen the collaborative linkage with regional technology, capital, and industrial chain resources. The 1 billion yuan artificial intelligence data fund and new productivity fund released at the conference will provide "financial vitality" for small and medium-sized enterprises' R&D innovation, helping enterprises such as Shangchun to accelerate breakthroughs in industrial large models and intelligent sensing technologies, and shorten the transformation cycle from technology verification to large-scale application.

 

 

"Upholding the original aspiration of industrial development and shouldering the global mission of green development!" — Shangchun Zhizao is taking the new base as a starting point to resonate with the Zhonglou District's artificial intelligence industrial ecosystem. Under the wave of "AI + industry," the enterprise will focus on cutting-edge scenarios such as semiconductor precision etching and new energy material filling, using intelligence and green development to promote the upgrading of traditional industries and inject new impetus into the Yangtze River Delta's creation of a benchmark for "artificial intelligence-enabled new industrialization." In the future, Shangchun Zhizao will continue to uphold its innovative genes, and under the dual drive of technological breakthroughs and scenario implementation, write a new chapter in China's intelligent manufacturing!
