On October 23, Yonyou was invited to participate in the 2025 Industrial Software Innovation and Development Conference held in Zhuzhou, Hunan.The conference, themed “Empowering with Software, Creating an Intelligent Future,” brought together representatives from government, enterprises, and research institutions to discuss the latest trends in industrial software, align with industry needs, and promote innovation and development across the sector.
01 The Wave of Innovation: Witnessing the Vitality of Industrial Software
Industrial software serves as the “brain and nervous system” of modern manufacturing and is the cornerstone of high-quality intelligent industrial development.
In recent years, Hunan Province has been implementing China’s national software development strategy and advancing its “Three Highs and Four New” vision through initiatives such as “AI+,” “Smart Empowerment for Ten Thousand Enterprises,” and computational capability enhancement. With supporting policies for green computing and first-edition software, the province has accelerated the cultivation of key software and industrial internet capabilities, achieving remarkable progress in industrial software development.
The conference was co-hosted by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT), the Hunan Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, and the Zhuzhou Municipal People’s Government.
Academicians Shen Changxiang and Chai Tianyou from the Chinese Academy of Engineering delivered keynote speeches. Zhang Li, President of CAICT; Cao Huiquan, Secretary of the Zhuzhou Municipal Committee; and Chen Hui, Deputy Director of the Hunan Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, addressed the event. The meeting was chaired by Chen Huiqing, Mayor of Zhuzhou.
Industry leaders gathered to share insights on hot topics including intelligent industrial software, large model empowerment, humanoid robot integration, and the domestic software ecosystem, bringing forward diverse perspectives and forward-looking ideas.
02 AI as the Engine: Driving New Value for Industrial Enterprises
At the conference, Haoming Hao, Vice President of Yonyou Network Technology Co., Ltd., delivered a keynote speech titled “Building the Next Generation of Intelligent Software to Accelerate AI Applications in Industrial Enterprises.”
He emphasized that under the new industrialization strategy, artificial intelligence has become the core driving engine of industrial software transformation.
By constructing a native AI x Process x Data digital-intelligent foundation, Yonyou deeply integrates the YonGPT model matrix with AI agent technologies, launching over 40 ready-to-use intelligent agents across 10 key business domains, including R&D, production, and supply chain — empowering industrial enterprises to evolve from “tool-based applications” to true intelligent productivity.
“AI agents are not just a technology,” Hao stated.
“They represent a new model of productivity and economy.
Through human-AI collaboration, production efficiency will be greatly improved, and new labor structures will emerge — bringing fresh opportunities for enterprise growth.”
Yonyou’s AI-Driven Industrial Innovation in Action
With leading technology and deep industry experience, Yonyou integrates AI, big data, and cloud computing to help industrial enterprises accelerate AI adoption and achieve dual improvements in operational efficiency and business value.
For example:
• At Ansteel Group, Yonyou’s AI-based Scrap Steel Grading System trained on 14 million images has achieved 93% grading accuracy, saving the company approximately 16 million RMB annually in procurement costs.
• The AI Cost Management Assistant for ironmaking processes enables real-time data attribution analysis, transforming cost management from fragmented control to centralized, intelligent decision-making.
• Yonyou’s intelligent solutions have also been successfully implemented at Guodian Ningbo (asset management) and Ligo Food (supply chain collaboration), significantly enhancing operational efficiency.
Accelerating the Shift Toward AI-Driven Intelligent Enterprises
Amid the AI revolution, enterprises in China and worldwide are accelerating their digital and intelligent transformation.
An increasing number are choosing or upgrading to China’s new-generation enterprise software and intelligent service platform, achieving data-driven and intelligent operations.
