The exhibition spans 15,000 square meters, featuring over 1,500 distinct solutions. A new addition, the "OPC Energy Field," highlights the shift toward practical AI deployment by gathering 18 agent tools and 50 cutting-edge applications alongside youth-led innovation projects. During the opening ceremony, officials released the latest industry development reports and recognized winners of the Artificial Intelligence Product Application Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, while Microsoft (China) solidified its local presence through a new strategic cooperation agreement with the Suzhou municipal government.

Suzhou Industrial Park remains the engine behind this expansion, now boasting an AI cluster valued at over RMB 100 billion. The park hosts more than 1,900 firms and has successfully nurtured 20 publicly listed entities. By focusing on specialized sectors like machine vision, industrial software, and information technology and biotechnology, the district aims to cement its role as a primary hub for integrating artificial intelligence into the real economy, further bolstered by new collaborative ties with Shanghai’s innovation network.
