This year's Inclusion Conference on the Bund, normally devoted to fintech cutting and current science, has the theme "Technology for a Sustainable Future."
The exhibition area covers 8,000 square meters of AI, blockchain, security, 6G and more, with attendees able to experience these new technologies firsthand.
One of the highlights is Ant Chain, Ant Group's contribution to urban development. A team from Fudan University is showing off the most advanced 6G devices. An intelligent pet recognition system will assist veterinarians in their diagnosis.
Inclusion on the Bund has an area dedicated to retirement homes. Ant Group also collaborated with Shanghai University for the Elderly to bring together a team of senior volunteers who were already quite tech-savvy. These volunteers were given detailed talks on some relevant tech and then explained the new ideas to their peers in terms they found easier to understand.
The Conference on the Bund also has virtual space where, regardless of their location, users can create avatars experience digital exhibition halls and watch live broadcasts.
