From green low-carbon technology to digital industry applications, from new power systems to strategies for clean energy development, from innovation incubation to the establishment of entrepreneurial platforms, from the 40th anniversary of CHINT to the path of evergreen private enterprises, a rich array of topics and cutting-edge discussions await… The 2024 Ou River Summit will be held in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, on October 18-19.
With the theme “Green Forward,” the summit will focus on key areas of new quality productive forces such as green energy, new power systems, and technological innovation. It will feature a series of events including the Smart Energy Forum, the Digital Intelligent Power Forum, the “CHINT Cup” Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, and the 40th Anniversary Entrepreneurship and Development Conference of CHINT, with a full-day showcase of a zero-carbon future reality. Distinguished guests from government departments at all levels, top scientists from around the world, industry enterprises, experts and scholars, international organizations, and investors will gather to create an international cooperative exchange conference with global influence and industry appeal.
As one of the key events of the 2024 Ou River Summit, the Digital Intelligent Power Forum will invite academicians, experts, professors from renowned institutions, and leaders of industry-leading enterprises to analyze the innovative applications of digital intelligent technology, green low-carbon technology, and power electronics in the power industry. Discussions will focus on promoting the green, digital, and intelligent upgrading of the power equipment manufacturing industry to achieve high-quality development of the power industry and help build new quality productive forces.
Another highlight—the Smart Energy Forum—is equally promising. Industry leaders will share in-depth insights on cutting-edge topics in the energy field, such as new trends in the new energy industry, international cooperation in the energy industry, and new investment opportunities in the new energy industry under the global decarbonization context. They will explore the future opportunities and space for global energy transition with guests present.
During the Ou River Summit, the final of the inaugural “CHINT Cup” Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition will add a touch of youthful vibrancy to the event. Using the competition as a catalyst, CHINT aims to create an international comprehensive science and technology innovation incubation and talent exchange platform that deeply integrates industry, academia, research, and practical application.
The competition has attracted participation from hundreds of colleges and universities at home and abroad, including top-ranked domestic universities with strong science and engineering programs, comprehensive institutions providing solutions through multidisciplinary integration, and world-class research universities with global research capabilities.
Young people possess boundless imagination and passionate energy. Recently, more than 20 teams have advanced to the final, with projects covering cutting-edge topics such as hydrogen energy, carbon capture, and AI inspection. On the final day, more than 10 authoritative review experts will use the new “PechaKucha” presentation format to invite you to collide passionately with new industries, new tracks, and new dynamics.
The summit will also hold the 40th Anniversary Entrepreneurship and Development Conference of CHINT, focusing on the high-quality development of private enterprises. The year 2024 marks the 46th anniversary of China’s reform and opening up and the 40th anniversary of CHINT’s establishment. Over forty years, CHINT has grown from a small family workshop in southern Zhejiang to an international company with global operational capabilities, deeply involved in the entire industry chain of power and new energy. It has accompanied the tide of reform and opening up, step by step, from 0 to 1, from small to large, and from weak to strong, achieving a brilliant transformation.
The 40th Anniversary CHINT Entrepreneurship and Development Conference will summarize the innovative exploration of private enterprises in technological innovation, industrial upgrading, and international layout based on the entrepreneurial journey of forty years. The conference will also invite well-known scholars, industry experts, and domestic and global partners to explore the role of private enterprises in the era of high-quality sustainable reform, the inheritance and innovation of the Zhejiang business spirit, and to seek the value and significance in the context of the new era, empowering and adding wisdom to the sustainable development of Chinese private enterprises and the industry.
During the conference, the 40-year documentary of CHINT and the new book “Unyielding—Solving the Path of Evergreen Chinese Private Enterprises” created by the Qin Shuo team, a humanistic and economic observer, will be released for the first time. They will present a vivid picture of the transformation and butterfly change of Chinese private enterprises and reveal the deep-level thinking and value culture behind enterprise management and strategic evolution. The conference will also honor 40 individuals over the past 40 years and hold a “United Creation for the Future” re-departure ceremony.
By the Ou River, we set sail with “digital intelligence” and explore the future of “carbon.” With the main line of “innovating low-carbon scenarios and exploring sustainable development,” the 2024 Ou River Summit invites you to discuss new opportunities for international green energy cooperation, plan a new future for digital intelligent electricity, and build a new platform for science and technology innovation incubation and exchange.
