China's SASAC Urges State Firms to Boost Emerging Industries and AI in Manufacturing
On September 20, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) of China's State Council held a special meeting, as reported by People's Financial Information on September 21. The meeting emphasized that central state-owned enterprises must focus on key areas and critical links to enhance the innovation, competitiveness, and overall strength of the manufacturing sector. Key directives include achieving more advanced and independent technology by undertaking new national science and technology projects and building pilot testing platforms; advancing the industrial structure by expanding emerging industries, cultivating future industries, and optimizing traditional industries; and promoting greener, more efficient production methods. The meeting also stressed accelerating the application of artificial intelligence across all manufacturing processes, from R&D to management, and deeply integrating advanced manufacturing with modern services to find new growth points. To support these goals, SASAC called for fostering leading enterprises, strengthening policy support in areas like technology research and smart transformation, and reforming regulatory approaches to create a favorable environment for central enterprises to strengthen their advanced manufacturing capabilities.

On September 20, the Party Committee of China's State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) held a special meeting. The meeting emphasized that central state-owned enterprises (SOEs) must focus on key areas and critical links to improve the innovation, competitiveness, and overall strength of the manufacturing sector. Specifically, the commission called for advancing technology by systematically undertaking new national major science and technology projects, implementing a batch of landmark major scientific tasks, and promoting the construction of new pilot test platforms to achieve a more high-end and independent technology roadmap. In terms of industrial structure, the directive is to expand the increment of emerging industries, cultivate variables for future industries, and optimize the stock of traditional industries, continuously moving towards the mid-to-high end of the industrial and value chains. Regarding production methods, the commission stressed the need to promote both pollution reduction, carbon reduction, and quality and efficiency improvement, accelerating the formation of an industrial structure and production method with high technological content, low resource consumption, and low environmental pollution.
