Hey tech fam! 🤖 Ever wondered how AI start-ups get their big break? Shanghai, the Chinese mainland's buzzing financial hub, just launched the first incubator dedicated to foundation models – those massive AI systems that form the "base code" powering chatbots, image generators, and more.
This incubator is all-in on supporting young ventures. Here's the lowdown:
- 🚀 Rent subsidies to keep overheads low.

- 🤝 Matchmaking with potential business partners to spark collabs.
In the premiere episode of "Vision to Reality," CGTN takes us inside this game-changer. You'll see how start-ups are tapping into resources, swapping ideas over coffee, and building networks to scale fast.
Why it matters? For South and Southeast Asia's young innovators, it's proof that local ecosystems can nurture world-class AI talent. Imagine similar hubs popping up in Bengaluru, Jakarta, or Ho Chi Minh City – you could be next! 🌏✨
