Following the success of the first two German Chamber Industry Days in Xi’an, which attracted strong participation from German companies, the German Chamber of Commerce in China is pleased to return for the 3rd German Chamber Industry Day in Xi’an.

 

This year’s Industry Day will focus on Data Centres and Artificial Intelligence (AI) – two closely connected areas that are becoming increasingly important for China’s digital economy and companies across industries. The rapid adoption of AI is driving demand for computing power, data storage, cloud infrastructure and advanced semiconductor technologies, placing data centres at the heart of the AI transformation.

 

Over 1.5 days, the Industry Day will bring together industry experts, technology companies and senior business representatives for market insights and networking, while visiting key players in Xi’an’s technology and digital infrastructure ecosystem.

 

The main program on October 23 will begin at SAP Xi’an, where KPMG will provide a market overview of the data centre and AI landscape in China and Asia. SAP will then share its perspective on the future of AI, followed by a panel discussion with senior representatives from international companies on the opportunities and challenges for German and foreign businesses in China.

 

In the afternoon, participants will visit Micron Xi’an for an introductory presentation, guided tour and exchange with China Country Manager Betty Wu. The program will conclude at VNET Xi’an, with a company presentation, guided data centre tour and networking session.

 

On October 22, participants are also invited to join an event organized by NRW.Global Business, including a networking dinner. Participation can be selected during registration.


**Self - Arrangement Information: 

Please note the participation fee includes dinner and transportation to the companies that will be visited. Traveling to and from Xi'an as well as hotel accommodation must be organized by the participants themselves. There is no hotel contingent available or organized by the German Chamber.


**Participant Approval: 

Please note that, based on registration and approval requirements and to prevent competitors from visiting, participant information (company name and full name) will be shared with the host companies. The final attendee list is subject to the visited companies’ final approval.
