| The 28th Harvard China Forum, one of the most influential platforms for dialogue on China’s development and global innovation, recently concluded with resounding success. As a proud partner of the event, AI Reinvent was honored to contribute to the forum and help foster in-depth discussions on the future of artificial intelligence. AI Reinvent invited a distinguished lineup of speakers—including Fu Sheng, Chairman and CEO of Cheetah Mobile; Sun Linjia, founder of Traini; and Qian Zhang, founding partner of Sky9 Capital—to share their insights on the transformative power of AI across industries and borders. Technology and Business: The Leap of AI At the “Technology and Business” sub-forum, Fu Sheng emphasized that technological progress follows a leapfrogging trajectory rather than a linear one. He highlighted that AI has now reached a pivotal inflection point, representing one of the rare moments in human history when the flow of energy and productivity undergoes a fundamental transformation. Branding and Global Expansion: New Consumer Trends Speaking at the “Global Branding: New Consumer Trends and Cultural Narratives” panel, Sun Linjia stressed the importance of grounding AI entrepreneurship in real-world scenarios. He further outlined a three-stage evolution of brand globalization: first trade, then branding, and ultimately technology—underscoring that beyond products, it is also people who must go global. Cross-Border Innovation and Venture Capital At the “Cross-Border Innovation and Venture Capital” session, Qian Zhang, a leading investor and founder of Sky9 Capital, shared her unique perspective on AI investment. Zhang highlighted that her firm is focused on opportunities in cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and frontier technologies that define the intelligent era. Closing Remarks: AI as a New Social Paradigm In his closing keynote, Fu Sheng described the AI wave not only as a revolution in productivity but also as a reshaping of society’s underlying logic. He stressed that amid these seismic changes, the focus must ultimately return to the individual. “We should strive to be practitioners,” he said. “Only through continuous practice can we find inspiration, and with inspiration, opportunities will follow.” Looking Ahead The success of this year’s Harvard China Forum provided a valuable platform for global leaders, entrepreneurs, and innovators to exchange ideas on China’s development and the future of AI. Looking forward, AI Reinvent will continue to support the Harvard China Forum, investing resources and fostering collaboration to accelerate the real-world application of AI technologies, and to drive growth across the global AI industry. |
