Prime Minister of Malaysia visits SenseTime China's original AI technology will come to Malaysia
On April 26, Beijing, Malaysia’s Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who is participating in the second “Belt and Road” International Cooperation Summit Forum in China, and many dignitaries from the delegation visited SenseTime. This is the second to Singapore’s Prime Minister in September 2017. After Lee Hsien Loong, the second Southeast Asian country leader visited Shangtang. Tang Xiaoou, the founder of SenseTime and a professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and Shi Jun, president of SenseTime's Asia Pacific business group, received the reception and accompanied them to visit the Beijing office of SenseTime.
During the period, SenseTime, Malaysian technology company G3 Global Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "G3 Global") and China Harbour Engineering Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Harbour") signed a strategic cooperation agreement to jointly build Malaysia's first artificial intelligence industrial park .
During the visit of Prime Minister Mahathir and the delegation, Professor Tang Xiaoou gave a detailed introduction of the latest developments and advanced artificial intelligence technology of SenseTime. Prime Minister Mahathir and the delegation members also personally experienced product demonstrations and learned about artificial intelligence technology. Applications in key areas such as autonomous driving, smart cities, education, and medical care. Prime Minister Mahathir praised SenseTime's various artificial intelligence technologies, and said that SenseTime's technology can be used in many scenarios in Malaysia, and he hopes that SenseTime will land in Malaysia as soon as possible.
As the world's leading artificial intelligence platform company, SenseTime is an "intelligent vision" artificial intelligence open innovation platform awarded by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China. Professor Tang Xiaoou said: "Shangtang Technology has advanced artificial intelligence technology and rich industrial experience. It is an honor to be a participant in the new journey of Malaysia's development. Looking forward to the future, Sensetime Technology can cooperate with the Malaysian government, academia and industry. Transplant these technologies and experience into the construction of Malaysia, promote academic and industrial progress, and create a better world with science and technology."
This tripartite cooperation is not only a new attempt by SenseTime to "go global" as a Chinese original technology enterprise, it is also an important result of strengthening international cooperation between countries along the route under the "Belt and Road" cooperation initiative, supported by infrastructure construction.
According to the agreement, G3 Global, SenseTime and China Harbour will cooperate closely in the fields of artificial intelligence infrastructure, technology research, data management, talent training and business operations to promote ecological construction and industrial development in the field of artificial intelligence technology in Malaysia. In Malaysia Artificial Intelligence Industrial Park, China Harbor will provide industrial park infrastructure construction and industrial park management, maintenance and services. SenseTime will provide full support in basic artificial intelligence technology, product development, and personnel training. At the same time, relying on the industrial park, SenseTime will also cooperate with G3 Global to explore the Malaysian market, explore the development of artificial intelligence technology in smart cities, public management, mobile phones, automobiles and other industries, and introduce basic artificial intelligence education into the Malaysian curriculum system.
Relying on the strong localization strength and resources of G3 Global, SenseTime's deep accumulation in the field of artificial intelligence technology, China Harbor’s unique advantages and rich experience in the field of overseas infrastructure, the Malaysian Artificial Intelligence Industrial Park will become a technology and An important force for industrial development. Wan Khalik Wan Muhammad, Chairman of G3 Global, said, “We are living in the digital age, and the development of any industry will inevitably be integrated into Industry 4.0 technologies, such as artificial intelligence and big data. The artificial intelligence industry park will provide Malaysia with a State-of-the-art infrastructure in the field of machine learning to support related technology research, industrial development, and talent training. I believe that, driven by the construction of the industrial park, Malaysia is expected to be among the top 30 countries in the Global Innovation Index by 2025."
China Harbour is a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Communications Construction, one of the important players in the field of international infrastructure construction, and the first batch of state-owned enterprises "going out" in China. As strategic partners, China Harbour and SenseTime have their respective advantages in the field of artificial intelligence. In the future, relying on China Harbour's strength in the field of infrastructure construction and SenseTime's leading artificial intelligence technology, the two parties will jointly explore overseas markets and develop win-win cooperation. The joint construction of the Malaysian Artificial Intelligence Industrial Park this time is not only the first achievement since the cooperation between the two parties, but also a benchmark for China's international cooperation in technology and industry.
Breaking the boundaries, SenseTime is committed to promoting Chinese original technology to go overseas. Currently, SenseTime is actively deploying the Southeast Asian market. In the future, SenseTime will continue to accelerate its global development and deployment through various aspects such as academic research, talent exchange, technology improvement, and application landing. Cooperation to promote the development of artificial intelligence in Asia and the world.
