The 2026 Changsha 1024 Programmer's Day and AI Builders Conference was held on October 24-25 at World Computing·Changsha Smart Valley under the theme 'Embodied Together, Intelligently Building the Future', featuring a main conference, three forums and four build sessions.
The event served as a platform for frontier-idea exchange, technology commercialization and industry-ecosystem building. A concurrently held Beijing-Changsha Embodied Intelligence Summit gathered more than 20 embodied-AI enterprises and university representatives from the two cities to discuss technology breakthroughs and industrial coordination.
Xiangjiang New Area, the core growth pole of Hunan's science, technology and industry, concentrates more than half of the province's key software and AI enterprises and over 200,000 software and IT professionals, with strengths in smart equipment, consumer electronics, industrial software and chip design. The conference, in its seventh year, further consolidates Changsha's AI industry foundation.
