On May 16, at the 2023 Huawei Cloud City Summit with the theme "Intelligent Digitization to Make Beauty Happen," the Industrial Digitalization Innovation Consortium under the Application Modernization Industry Alliance, jointly initiated by Huawei Cloud, E-commerce Research Academy, IBI, AVIC Supply Chain, Yimo Technology, and Xiehui Smart Link, was officially established. This consortium will connect leading enterprises and industrial operators in the industry digitalization field, promote the modernization process of industrial applications, construct an industrial digitalization innovation consortium, and support the integrated upgrading of regional industrial clusters.

Huang Jin, Vice President of Huawei Cloud Computing Company, Xiao Yi, CTO of Huawei Cloud China, and Head of Huawei Cloud Eco-Solution Department, Zhang Meifu, Technical Director of IBI, Zheng Min, Chairman of Beijing E-commerce International Electronic Commerce Co., Ltd. and E-commerce Power, Ge Xuyang, Director of Supplier Management at AVIC International Supply Chain Technology Co., Ltd., Zheng Canjian, General Manager of South China Region at Wuhan Yimo Technology Co., Ltd., Quan Wei, Deputy General Manager of Dongguan Data Interconnection Co., Ltd., and Zhou Taili, Executive President of Xiehui Smart Link Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd., participated in the founding ceremony.

As industrial enterprises accelerate their digitalization process, application modernization has become a consensus in the industry. Traditional enterprise applications based on monolithic architecture and deployed on physical machines can no longer meet the needs of rapid business development, necessitating a shift to modern applications running in the cloud. This process requires the collective participation and promotion of various roles in the industry chain, including cloud providers, industry think tanks, leading enterprises, software providers, and consulting firms.

After the establishment of the Industrial Digitalization Innovation Consortium under the Application Modernization Industry Alliance, it will gather forces from multiple players in the industry chain, leverage the respective advantages of alliance members, and assist industrial enterprises in accelerating application modernization, deepening digital transformation, and achieving high-quality development.

As one of the promoters in the industrial internet field, IBI insists on the mission of serving the high-quality development of the real economy with digital technology. Based on industrial e-commerce, supported by big data on the internet, IBI is dedicated to the deep integration of new technologies such as the internet, the internet of things, big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence with traditional industries, aiding in cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and digital transformation of the manufacturing industry.
