From November 19 to 22, the 2024 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit was held in Wuzhen, Zhejiang Province. Since proposing the construction of "Digital Zhejiang" in 2003, Zhejiang has been based on its own advantages for more than 20 years, drawing a blueprint to the end and striving to build a digital engine for provincial development.
The digital economy continues to radiate vitality, digital technology empowers grassroots governance, and digital applications change daily life... Facing a global perspective, "Digital Zhejiang" presents a dynamic picture towards a new era of digital civilization.
The digital economy is surging with new driving forces
By using 11 sensors and domain controllers to assist vehicle driving, coupled with high-precision maps, drivers can significantly reduce manual intervention and achieve highway autonomous driving with just a light touch of the steering wheel... At Furuitech Intelligent Systems Co., Ltd. located in Tongxiang, Zhejiang, an intelligent driving system outlines the development trend of intelligent driving.
Freitek is an intelligent driving solution service provider and product supplier. In 2017, it took advantage of the East Wind of the World Internet Conference to settle in Wuzhen. "The local Internet industry has a solid foundation and the upstream and downstream enterprises are clustered, which is very helpful for our rapid growth," said Chen Yu, director of government relations of Freitek.
The digital wave is surging, accompanied by new formats and products that continue to stimulate new drivers of economic growth. In the first three quarters of this year, the added value of equipment, high-tech, strategic emerging, and digital economy industries in Zhejiang Province increased by 10.3%, 8.5%, 7.7%, and 7.5% year-on-year, respectively.
While digital technology opens up new industrial spaces, it also endows traditional industries with new vitality for transformation.
We are increasingly recognizing the importance of digital transformation, and in recent years, the cumulative investment in technological transformation by enterprises has reached more than 50 million yuan, "said Zhang Jiandao, General Manager of Zhejiang Zhucheng Technology Co., Ltd. Taking the intelligent warehousing and logistics system as an example, after its implementation, it not only reduced manpower by about 40%, but also significantly reduced human errors in the shipping process.
Chu Yingying, the chief statistician of Zhejiang Provincial Bureau of Statistics, said that in the next stage, with the implementation and effectiveness of various established policies, the solid promotion of new industrialization, the acceleration of the construction of a strong province with high-quality digital economy and modern service industry, the development of new quality productive forces will be further demonstrated, and the driving force of economic development in the whole province will be further enhanced.
Empowering digital technology to enhance grassroots' intelligence '
On November 19, the 2024 World Internet Conference "Internet Light" Expo kicked off. The daily interactive exhibition booth of data intelligence service providers is crowded with people, and the "Green Wave Timing Game" exhibited by the enterprise has attracted many visitors to stop and experience. Everyone is fully focused on "dragging and pulling" on the interface to make the two green "green wave belts" the widest and allow more "vehicles" to pass through without stopping.
The booth staff introduced that the "Green Wave Timing Game" is designed based on the daily interactive intelligent transportation solution "Smart Green Wave". This product is developed based on cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and big data. After being first applied in Hangzhou, it has now landed in more than 10 cities in China, with over 600 "green wave belts" built, covering more than 1000 kilometers of major urban roads, and an average road speed increase of over 20%.
In more unseen places, Zhejiang is leveraging its first mover advantage in the digital economy and quietly driving comprehensive changes in governance through digital technology.
The management of engineering vehicle transportation is a major challenge in urban management. The Social Governance Center of Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, in conjunction with functional departments such as urban management and transportation, will strengthen the collection and comparison of approval data, use intelligent platforms for real-time warning, and timely push relevant information to law enforcement personnel in various departments. With the help of digital technology, the timeliness and effectiveness of law enforcement by relevant departments have been significantly improved. Last year, the number of construction vehicle traffic accidents in the entire region decreased by 42% year-on-year.
Zhejiang Province is comprehensively and continuously promoting the construction of 'Digital Zhejiang', strengthening the construction of digital government, and advancing the modernization of governance capacity, which has a demonstrative and enlightening effect, "said Chen Chouyong, Chief Expert of Zhejiang Provincial Institute of Information Technology Development.
Intelligent, benevolent, and inclusive for thousands of households
There is a special hospital in Wuzhen: walking into the quaint building, patients may not face doctors in white coats, but a robot. Since the opening of Wuzhen Intelligent Hospital last year, this hospital with less than 10 doctors has received thousands of patients.
The highlight of Wuzhen Intelligent Hospital is the use of artificial intelligence to quickly and accurately analyze human health big data, thereby forming personalized health assessment results. "The hospital's executive director, Shen Fan, said that" robot doctors "provide patients with" point-to-point "health consultation, report interpretation, chronic disease management and other services, making" seeking medical treatment anytime, anywhere "a reality.
In today's Zhejiang, digital technology is helping to build an open, inclusive, and inclusive development environment, and the dividends of intelligence are constantly being released. Deepen the implementation of major reforms such as "four lists and one network" and "maximum one visit"; Let data run away more, achieve "intelligent and instant" and "mobile" services for the masses, and benefit thousands of households with digital applications such as smart healthcare and smart tourism
In the afternoon of November 19, 20 internationally representative projects covering frontiers such as brain like computing, embodied intelligence, 6G, big data, etc. won the World Internet Conference Leading Science and Technology Award, broadening people's imagination of linking the future.
Since 2014, the Wuzhen Summit of the World Internet Conference has been successfully held for 10 consecutive years. Standing at a new starting point, through the window of Zhejiang, people see the beautiful future of digital China construction.
