In a strategic move to accelerate innovation and showcase its technological contributions to the national economy, China Unicom's Tianjin Branch recently concluded its 2026 State-Owned Enterprise Open Day. The event featured a dual-track format combining thematic seminars with on-site facility tours, aiming to unify internal vision and strengthen external partnerships while presenting the company's commitment to fortifying its computing power infrastructure.
Designed to highlight the company's role in the digital economy, the open day provided a comprehensive view of its efforts to build a robust computing base and empower various industries. The first session kicked off with a specialized study seminar held in the form of an expanded theoretical learning center group meeting. Key members of the company's party committee, alongside representatives from various party branches, attended the session.
The seminar featured expert-led discussions focusing on establishing a correct view of career achievements and implementing national party building conference guidelines. Discussions delved into new development frameworks driven by proper performance perspectives, strategic opportunities, transformation challenges, and the value engine of token-based business models. The sessions also offered practical guidance on scientific decision-making and outlined pathways involving elements, governance, and capabilities, while introducing five-dimensional scenario screening models to prioritize key development areas.
Experts elaborated on four business models, including terminal-as-a-service, model-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service, and agent-as-a-service, along with a comprehensive operations system. Attendees gained insights into strategic recommendations for high-quality development through the "15th Five-Year Plan" period, fostering a unified consensus and a strong sense of purpose among all participants.
On July 28, the on-site exploration segment took participants to the China Unicom Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Digital Technology Industrial Park. The Tianjin Branch invited key clients from the computing power, artificial intelligence, and digital economy sectors, as well as government officials, to experience the advancements in new digital infrastructure. Guests toured the facility's server rooms, where they observed high-power domestic intelligent computing servers and learned about the park's strategic role as a core national computing hub.
The visit emphasized the park's positioning within the "East Data, West Computing" project and its function as a carrier for computing collaboration across the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. The innovative "Beijing Data, Tianjin Computing" model was also highlighted. Unicom representatives provided detailed explanations of the intelligent computing center's infrastructure, operations, and maintenance systems, offering attendees a clear picture of the company's robust capabilities in strengthening regional computing foundations.
Building on the site visit, the Tianjin Branch hosted an ecological seminar combining AI lectures with ecosystem exchanges. This platform allowed participants to explore industry trends and practical applications. Unicom engineers delivered presentations on AI's role in advancing new industrialization, low-altitude economy, and intelligent transportation. Real-world examples illustrated how the park's computing resources support local enterprises in large model training and inference deployment, showcasing the tangible impact of computing infrastructure on industrial innovation.
Participants engaged in productive discussions on computing power industry layout, AI application scenarios, and digital transformation needs. The exchanges explored potential collaborations involving shared computing resources and joint industry projects, fostering stronger government-enterprise partnerships and industry linkage. The event aimed to contribute to the sustained growth of Tianjin's computing power industry cluster.
With the 2026 open day as a catalyst, the Tianjin Branch is poised to strengthen the computing infrastructure foundation of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. By seizing opportunities in the digital economy and artificial intelligence, the company is dedicated to supporting Tianjin's smart city development and regional coordinated growth, embarking on a new journey of digital intelligence advancement alongside its partners during the "15th Five-Year Plan" period.
