Leading AI company iFlytek talked about the applications of AI technology in various scenarios – such as in the office, home, in education and medicine and in other fields – and held extensive talks  with companies it wanted to do business with.

In September 2020, the Artificial Intelligence Industrial Chain Alliance in the Yangtze River Delta was established during a roundtable conference between entrepreneurs from around the YRD. It's since been playing a role in building a high-quality integrated development system for the AI industry in the region.

Based on its own innovation resources and industrial base, plans are moving along for the Hefei high-tech zone to strengthen cooperation with the YRD regions in sci-tech innovation, so as to build itself into a technology hub with a worldwide influence.
