The Yangtze River Delta Autonomous Vehicle Cross-Industry Integration Exploration Conference and the 14th Qingpu Roundtable Meeting were held
(Reporter Qi Wenwen) On January 17, the Yangtze River Delta Autonomous Vehicle Cross-Industry Integration Exploration Conference and the 14th Qingpu Roundtable Meeting were held. Focusing on the theme of "Borderless Driving, the Future is Here," the conference brought together industry elites, experts, scholars, and more than 100 companies from upstream and downstream of the industry chain to Nanling. The three core sections, "The Beauty of Cross-Industry Integration," "Focusing on the Voice of the Industry," and "The Light of Scientific and Technological Innovation Ecosystem," explored new paths for the cross-industry integration of autonomous vehicles and jointly drew a new blueprint for industrial development.
At the conference, Chery Commercial Vehicles unveiled its flagship unmanned vehicle product, showcasing the latest cutting-edge developments in the intersection of automobiles and unmanned vehicles. Nanling County released a list of multi-domain application scenarios for unmanned vehicles and its local industrial foundation for cross-industry integration of unmanned vehicles. From plant protection, inspection, and retail to ports and overseas expansion, benchmark scenarios were showcased, providing replicable and scalable implementation models for the industry and demonstrating Nanling's solid foundation for developing the unmanned vehicle industry.
The blossoming of cross-industry integration reflects the industry's relentless progress. In the "Focusing on Industry Voices" section, leading companies took turns sharing their practical experiences. Chery Commercial Vehicles presented its insights into the unmanned vehicle industry and its product planning, while companies like QCraft and Anhui MaShangDao shared their unmanned delivery solutions and operational practices. From product development and manufacturing to market operations, these presentations outlined a clear path for the large-scale and industrialized development of unmanned delivery, providing attendees with comprehensive reference for industry enterprises.
New paths, new models, and new ecosystems require a stronger consensus on development. The "Light of the Science and Technology Innovation Ecosystem" section featured main and branch venues, hosting simultaneous and lively discussions. At the main venue, experts, scholars, and enterprise representatives engaged in in-depth exchanges on key topics such as tackling key challenges in unmanned delivery technology, setting industry standards, market expansion directions, and joint talent training, connecting solutions on-site. At the branch venues, Chery Commercial Vehicles, in conjunction with relevant units, focused on discussions regarding innovative enterprise cooperation models, technology sharing, and collaborative operations in specific scenarios, jointly exploring common challenges and coping strategies for industry development, effectively promoting precise connections and in-depth cooperation among enterprises.
Pooling wisdom and working together for development, a new chapter in industry is being written. Currently, Nanling County has formed a development pattern of "one main industry and one advantageous industry"—automobiles and auto parts, and intelligent logistics equipment. The automobile and auto parts industry has gathered over a hundred enterprises in the fields of vehicle manufacturing, parts production, and aftermarket services. The intelligent logistics equipment industry covers a complete industrial chain encompassing six major systems and 18 core components. With full access to roads, unmanned vehicle express delivery has achieved full coverage, with over 20 million deliveries completed and a total mileage exceeding one million kilometers.
Focusing on its development positioning as a "city of power" and a "city rich in oxygen" in the south, Nanling will take this conference as an opportunity to further integrate into the overall industrial development of the Yangtze River Delta, promote the coordinated and innovative development of the automobile and parts industry and the intelligent logistics equipment industry, and inject strong momentum into Wuhu's efforts to accelerate the construction of a "world-renowned automobile city" and the coordinated industrial development of the Yangtze River Delta region.
