In Hefei, speaking of artificial intelligence, we have to mention China's sound Valley. As the country's first national AI important industrial base, China Sound Valley has successively won 11 "national brand" honors such as the National New industrialization Industry Demonstration Base, the National small and micro enterprise entrepreneurship and innovation Demonstration base, the National science and technology enterprise incubator, the National new information consumption demonstration project, the national advanced manufacturing cluster, the national technical standard innovation base, and the national characteristic service export base, forming a good environment for industrial development.

At present, China Sound Valley in education, medical care

Industrial development needs leading enterprises to drive. In recent years, Hefei's artificial intelligence industry has developed rapidly, cultivated a number of leading enterprises and high-growth enterprises such as iFlytek and Huami Technology, and accelerated the creation of a core area for the development of artificial intelligence industry relying on "China Sound Valley".

Industrial regional layout:

Hefei is speeding up the construction of a new generation of artificial intelligence innovation and development pilot zone, issued the Hefei National New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Development Pilot Zone "14th Five-Year" development Plan, established the "312" strategic goal - by 2025, the scale of artificial intelligence industry exceeded 300 billion yuan, new authorized invention patents 3,000, technology and application standards 300. Cultivate 100 high-level talent teams and innovation platforms, 100,000 technical personnel, cultivate and develop 2,000 industrial chain enterprises, and build more than 200 artificial intelligence + application demonstration scenario projects.

Hefei High-tech Zone plans to build "China Sound valley · World wisdom peak" as the development orientation, the implementation of artificial intelligence "science and education innovation highland" and "industrial development highland" of the "double highland" strategy, and strive to form a leading advantage in the four technical fields of artificial intelligence voice intelligence, brain-like intelligence, quantum intelligence and big data intelligence, to create domestic and even global artificial intelligence industry "pilot zone".

Shushan District supports the construction of China (Hefei) Artificial Intelligence Industry Town, creating an industrial ecological gathering area integrating theoretical research, technology research and development, industrial development, talent training, application demonstration and ecological enterprises. At the same time, support the construction of Nanyanhu Robot Town to create a robot industry ecosystem where talents, technologies and industries gather.

In 2019, Baohe actively responded to the call and requirements of the province and the city, compiled the Development Plan of Baohe District Artificial Intelligence Vision Industry "Chinese Vision" (2020-2028), and preemptive deployment and construction of the country's first artificial intelligence vision industry base.

As a national pilot area for relocation and transformation and an opportunity for the construction of "Hefei East New Center", Yaohai Old Industrial Zone has cooperated with IFLYTEK in many aspects to promote the innovation and development of emerging industries in the new center of East Hefei and improve the overall intelligence level of the new center of East Hefei. Promote the demonstration construction of "artificial intelligence + cultural tourism", "artificial intelligence + environmental protection", "artificial intelligence + security", and "artificial intelligence + entrepreneurship", and build a benchmark in the field of artificial intelligence demonstration with regional characteristics.

Industrial support policy:

In terms of industrial policy, Hefei is focusing on industrial strong chain, extended chain and complementary chain, carrying out industrial chain technology assessment, sorting out industrial chain technology map, and identifying industrial technology shortcomings. Plan to introduce targeted and operable special policies that are more in line with the needs of industry and enterprise development, and focus on supporting leading industry leaders and leading enterprises in subdivisions whose technology level reaches the forefront of the world, replaces imports, and is safe and reliable.

As early as 2018, Anhui Province issued the "Notice on Printing and Distributing Anhui Province's New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Industry Development Plan (2018-2030)", and Hefei issued the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the Development of a New Generation of Artificial Intelligence Industry" in 2019, which mainly includes the development of core industries, strengthening key industries, and cultivating intelligent enterprises. Build a "3+5" industrial system. Core industries include smart chips, smart sensors, and smart software.

On July 15 this year, the "Hefei City to accelerate the construction of the National New Generation of artificial Intelligence innovation and Development Pilot Zone to promote industrial high-quality Development of several policies" was released. Focusing on industrial technology research and development, the promotion of independent innovation products, and the recruitment and cultivation of leading enterprises, Hefei further strengthened policy support to promote the high-quality development of the artificial intelligence industry.

Key industrial parks:

Digital Creative Town Artificial Intelligence Vision Industrial Port project is located in the southwest corner of the intersection of Shanghai Road and Longchuan Road, Baohe District, Hefei City. The total land area of the project start-up area is 76.03 mu, with a total construction area of 180,000 square meters. There are a total of 8 buildings, including 4 high-rise scientific research office buildings, 4 multi-storey scientific research office buildings and 1 digital creative cultural experience center. The project will be committed to the deep integration of technology and cultural industry in the field of artificial intelligence, especially in the field of network audiovisual, empower the digital creative industry through artificial intelligence technology, promote the technological innovation of the digital creative industry, use high-tech to update the creation mode and communication mode of digital creative products, and realize the two-wheel drive of creative design and cultural science and technology.

China Vision will focus on the development of artificial intelligence as the core, video vision, science and technology research and development as the leading, supported by scientific and technological services of the industrial ecosystem, the construction of artificial intelligence vision industry innovation system cluster development platform, to lead the future industrial development of Baohe "intelligent eyes", to create a national demonstration, the world's leading AI vision industry base. The total construction area is about 180,000 square meters, and the planned investment is 990 million yuan. The park has a total of 8 individual buildings with a height of 96 meters, including 4 high-rise scientific research office buildings, 4 multi-storey scientific research office buildings and 1 innovation experience center, and 2 floors of underground garage.

Iflytek Artificial Intelligence R & D and production base of the first phase of the land area of about 300 acres, construction area of about 250,000 square meters, the construction of IFLYtek headquarters of the main business base, including education business, consumer business, smart city business, core R & D platform, artificial intelligence open platform. The base is planned to cover an area of 876 mu, and will build IFlytek Headquarters, production and manufacturing plants, artificial intelligence national open platform, cognitive intelligence State key laboratory and national engineering laboratory, etc., which can accommodate about 15,000 artificial intelligence industry talents in the future, and become an artificial intelligence industry demonstration zone integrating core technology research, industrial collaborative development and ecological enterprises.

More than 200 artificial intelligence hardware and software products have been incubated in the fields of, service, automobile, and home, involving artificial intelligence technologies such as speech recognition and translation, face recognition, and natural speech processing.
