On January 30, the Shanghai Municipal People's Government announced
measures to support the development of productive Internet service
platform clusters in five key areas, including Pudong New Area. It
emphasized the focus on sectors like steel and actively building a
commodity industry ecosystem. The development involves integrating
functions such as industry chain collaboration, big data services,
online transactions, supply chain finance, research and development
innovation, green and low-carbon initiatives, and circular economy
services. By effectively consolidating resources from various supply
chain participants, the initiative aims to strengthen the seamless
integration and connectivity between service platforms and the upstream
and downstream of the industrial chain, promoting the open sharing of
digital infrastructure.
Furthermore, the initiative aims to deepen the multidimensional
application of commodity price indices, such as steel spot and iron ore
indices. It seeks to create a comprehensive commodity big data industry
loop based on big data, supported by artificial intelligence,
blockchain, and big data technologies. This includes proprietary
databases, analytical model methods, expert analyst teams, big data
technology, e-commerce trading platforms, intelligent cloud storage,
smart logistics, supply chain services, and green and low-carbon
initiatives. The goal is to launch a series of nationally influential
steel trading and supporting services, including national price indices
and standards. |
