On December 6, the 2023 World Intelligent Manufacturing Conference opened in Nanjing. With the theme of “Intelligent transformation of data to Internet connection, integration of data and real innovation”, this conference will hold related activities such as theme conferences, special activities, professional forums, industry events and professional exhibitions. The conference upholds the concept of “high-end, international, professional, and systematic”, highlights the new picture of the integration of digital and real development under the background of new industrialization, and presents the future development of intelligent manufacturing in an all-round way.

At the meeting, the International Intelligent Manufacturing Alliance unveiled and released the “2023 World intelligent manufacturing ten scientific and technological progress” and “2023 China Intelligent Manufacturing Ten scientific and technological progress”, which is also since 2017, the international Intelligent Manufacturing Alliance and the China Association for Science and Technology Intelligent Manufacturing Association have released the “double Ten” scientific and technological progress of intelligent manufacturing for seven consecutive years. So far, a total of 67 “World intelligent Manufacturing science and Technology Progress” and 70 “China intelligent Manufacturing science and technology Progress” have been released. The site also released the national intelligent manufacturing demonstration factory unveiling unit, China’s intelligent manufacturing development eight trends. As a supporting event of the conference, the third Intelligent Manufacturing Innovation Competition was also held at the scene of the award ceremony.

As a leader in high-end equipment manufacturing, the aerospace industry is an important area for implementing the innovation-driven development strategy and an important support for building a manufacturing powerhouse. At the signing ceremony, the People’s Government of Jiangsu Province signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Aviation Industry Corporation of China and Aviation Engine Group of China, further focusing on major national strategies and regional economic development, extensively gathering high-quality resources in the aerospace field, and striving to build a new ecology of efficient collaboration and deep integration of production, learning and research.
