On June 6, 2025, the “Inaugural General Assembly and Founding Ceremony of the Guangdong Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Industry Alliance” was grandly held at the Guangzhou Baiyun International Conference Center. It was jointly organized by the United Front Work Department of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Guangdong Federation of Industry and Commerce. The main leaders of the provincial Party Committee and provincial government personally drove the event. The Vice Chairman of the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, An Lijia, delivered a speech, and the Standing Committee Member of the provincial Party Committee and Minister of the United Front Work Department, and Alliance Chairman Wang Xi, also gave a speech. Gortune Investment Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “Gortune Investment”) participated in the conference as an alliance council member.

The Guangdong Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Industry Alliance (hereinafter the “Alliance”) is supervised by the Guangdong Federation of Industry and Commerce, with guidance from the United Front Work Department of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, the Department of Science and Technology of Guangdong Province, and the Department of Industry and Information Technology of Guangdong Province, as well as support from several other departments such as the Provincial Cyberspace Administration, Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and the Department Finance of Guangdong Province. The establishment of the Alliance is a critical step for Guangdong to occupy the leading position in technology and solve developmental challenges. Its significance lies not only in resource integration but also in vitality stimulation, driving the upgrade of the entire industry system, and becoming an “accelerator” for promoting the high-quality development of Guangdong’s artificial intelligence and robotics industries.

To promote the development of the Alliance, in accordance with the deployment requirements of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government, and under the personal guidance and concern of Wang Xi, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, the United Front Work Department of the Provincial Party Committee and the Guangdong Federation of Industry and Commerce pushed for the establishment of the “Guangdong Intelligent Industry Fund” (hereinafter the “Fund”), with a target size of RMB10 billion. The Fund will provide financial support and resource matching in technological innovation and industrial upgrading for enterprises in Guangdong Province, especially enterprises under the Alliance. It also aims to build an artificial intelligence and robotics industry cluster, and better serve the high-quality development of Guangdong and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Gortune Investment, as the initiator and manager of the Fund, signed the joint initiation agreement for the Guangdong Intelligent Industry Fund at the conference. The Fund’s first phase has raised RMB2 billion. Nine capital parties jointly launched the fund, including Gortune Investment, CAS Capital, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Industrial and Financial Investment, SenseTime Group, PCITECH, Fok Ying Tung Education Foundation, Joincap Capital, Leader Holding Company of Macao, and San Fong Seng Group. It serves as a key platform for the Alliance’s strategy of “integrating the best resources and gathering the greatest power”. The Alliance, leveraging its advantage of integrating industry resources, has screened and provided a large number of high-quality investment projects for the Fund, and further determined the investment direction of the Fund.

The Guangdong Intelligent Industry Fund will adopt a “government guidance+market-oriented operation” model, gathering multiple forces to collaboratively promote the entire chain of development in technological research and development, achievement transformation, and industrial scaling. The Fund will be driven by a “dual engine” of “technological breakthrough+scenario implementation”, focusing on core technological research and development in areas such as AI large models, intelligent robotics, and semiconductor chips, while also promoting vertical scenario applications like intelligent manufacturing and smart cities, accelerating the pace of bringing technologies from the lab to industrialization. The Fund will help Guangdong form a globally competitive intelligent industry cluster through leveraging major projects and industrial chain collaboration, solve critical technological challenges, increase the added value of the industry, and inject strong momentum into Guangdong’s efforts to become a global innovation hub for the intelligent industry.

The Guangdong Intelligent Industry Fund will adhere to being “patient capital”, not only providing full-cycle empowerment to innovative enterprises but also linking research institutions, leading enterprises, and global resources through market-oriented mechanisms. It will promote the “basic research, technology breakthrough, and industry transformation” closed-loop development, provide solid support for the creation of an “AI+all” innovation hub in Guangdong, and contribute the “Guangdong solution” to the development of the global intelligent economy.
