2026-07-31
In the summer of Guiyang, the cool breeze brings a refreshing breeze, and "China's Number Valley" is about to welcome an annual event in the field of digital economy. From August 28th to 30th, the 2026 China International Big Data Industry Expo will be held here, and various preparatory work has entered the comprehensive sprint stage.
This year's Data Expo is hosted by the National Data Bureau and organized by the People's Government of Guizhou Province, with the theme of "Word Element - New Path for Releasing the Value of Data Elements". In the first year of the 15th Five Year Plan, this activity aims to build a platform for showcasing cutting-edge achievements, colliding industry ideas, and connecting industry supply and demand, injecting new momentum into the high-quality development of the digital economy.
Founded in 2015, the Data Expo has undergone 11 years of development and has become one of the comprehensive exhibitions with significant influence in the global big data field. This year's Data Expo will feature five categories of activities: opening ceremony, professional exhibitions, industry exchanges, integration of exhibition and production, and brand events, highlighting the characteristics of industrialization, specialization, and internationalization, and comprehensively upgrading the level of event management.
The 60000 square meter professional exhibition is a window to observe the "word element economy". The exhibition focuses on the entire chain of word element production, circulation, and application, and is divided into sections such as computing power base, data supply, model driven, security protection, and intelligent experience. It will gather more than 300 exhibiting companies. Leading companies such as China Telecom, Huawei, and Inspur will showcase their achievements in computing infrastructure, and a number of new technologies such as intelligent agent facilities and smart factories will be showcased for the first time.
We adopt the 'leading with ecology' exhibition model, relying on the brand influence and industrial resource advantages of leading enterprises in the industry, to attract upstream and downstream supporting enterprises in the industrial chain, specialized and new small and medium-sized enterprises to participate in the exhibition, and build a complete and collaborative 'word economy' exhibition ecology, "said Yang Hao, the head of the exhibition group of the Executive Committee of the China International Fair for Digital Products.
He introduced that the exhibition features a variety of highlights, including the launch of an artificial intelligence big model marketplace and the establishment of a technology sharing and resource docking platform for "one person companies"; The international data exchange exhibition area and the guest province exhibition area will be opened simultaneously, showcasing a diverse industrial ecosystem; Immersive interactive scenes such as embodied intelligent robots and smart healthcare allow the audience to intuitively experience the digital life empowered by word element technology. During the exhibition period, the entire industry will release more than 40 latest achievements in the fields of computer collaboration, data circulation, and generative artificial intelligence.
The ideological confrontation consolidates the consensus of development. This year's data expo also features over 20 industry exchange activities. The National Data Administration will release more than 20 institutional norms, industry standards, and practical cases, and a series of landmark developments will be disclosed at the meeting.
According to Gao Xiang, Deputy Leader of the Industry Exchange Group of the Executive Committee of the China International Data Expo, currently 7 events have officially entered the execution stage, and discussions will be held around themes such as "Computer and Electronics Collaboration" and "AI Empowerment". More than ten events are being optimized and improved. The "China Thailand Digital Economy Cooperation Forum" and other events focus on topics such as cross-border data flow. Seven industry innovation competitions cover tracks such as co creation of super intelligent agents and AI application scenarios, promoting innovation and activating industrial vitality through competitions.
Wang Naicheng, Deputy Director of Guiyang Big Data Development Management Bureau, said that this exchange event adheres to market-oriented organization and strengthens the role of enterprises as the main body. "Whether it is theme planning or on-site organization, enterprises stand in the 'C position' throughout the entire process, transforming from 'invited guests' to' platform builders'.
According to the Executive Committee's report, the Data Expo will collaborate with top companies such as Huawei to hold more than 10 ecological partner conferences, gather more than 100 high growth enterprises to carry out precise supply and demand matching, collaborate with four characteristic industrial parks to hold special business activities, and work with more than 30 overseas enterprises to carry out cross-border cooperation.
Urban development coexists and empowers in both directions. Guiyang Mayor Wang Hong stated that adhering to the concept of "hosting a good conference and enhancing a city", the local government plans to deeply integrate exhibition services with urban supporting facilities. This year's Data Expo will embed intelligent services throughout the entire process, with humanoid robots providing welcome guidance, conference consultation, and other services. Robots grinding coffee and AI intelligent guidance can be seen everywhere; Retail spacecraft are deployed throughout the city, unmanned buses are connected to the "Adventure Loop", and a sense of technology is integrated into the streets and alleys of the city.
The reporter learned that as the host city, Guizhou is taking the "third step" in the development of the digital economy. The local government adheres to the linkage of computing power, data, applications, and industries, vigorously developing the digital intelligence industry cluster: continuously expanding the scale of computing power, promoting "computing power synergy" green power direct connection, and creating a computing power guarantee base for the whole country; Develop and strengthen the data annotation industry, and use public data authorization operation to drive the release of factor value; Focus on promoting the implementation of industry models in areas such as soy sauce, mining, and cultural tourism; Strengthen the electronic information industry and strive to achieve a scale of 500 billion yuan in the digital intelligence industry by the end of the 15th Five Year Plan.
From seizing the opportunity to build data centers, to empowering industries with computing power, and to exploring new forms of "word element economy", the 11 years of the China Digital Economy Expo have engraved the footprints of China's digital economy developing in depth. A feast of ideas about the value of data, a pragmatic and efficient industry docking, and a refreshing and pleasant appointment in Guiyang are waiting for guests from all over the world.
