ABOUT AIX WEEK

The AI conversation is incomplete. AIX Week completes it.

THE PROBLEM

While the world obsesses over ChatGPT and Claude, China has quietly built an AI ecosystem that rivals Silicon Valley.

Companies like DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and Zhipu have developed foundation models serving hundreds of millions of users.

But almost nobody outside China knows about them.

Language barriers and limited international presence mean Chinese AI breakthroughs go unnoticed in the West.

THE SOLUTION

AIX Week brings Chinese AI companies to the global stage through comprehensive English-language programming.

Held in Hong Kongβ€”the natural bridge between East and Westβ€”we create the platform where these worlds finally connect.

For five days, international investors gain access. Developers learn from both ecosystems. The press covers stories they've never been able to file.

This isn't East vs West. This is East + West.

WHY HONG KONG?

One Country, Two Systems

Unique access to both Chinese innovation and international capital

Geographic Bridge

4-hour flight to Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo, Singapore

Financial Hub

Asia's premier destination for global capital

International City

English-capable, familiar to Western travelers

Proven Infrastructure

Track record with FinTech Week, major events

Neutral Ground

Perfect meeting place between systems
