On June 18, 2026, the Sino-French Future Industry Cooperation Forum was held in Nanjing under the theme “Mapping out a New Blueprint for Future Industries, Co-building a New Ecosystem for Future Industries.” Jointly hosted by the International Economic and Technical Cooperation Center of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and the Nanjing Investment Promotion Bureau , the event brought together over 150 representatives from government departments, leading Chinese and French enterprises, academic institutions, and research centers. Notable attendees included executives from global giants such as Schneider Electric, Fives, Veolia, Dassault Systèmes, L’Oréal, Air Liquide, Thales, Bernard, and Artifa, alongside major domestic players like COMAC, Tencent, and JD.

Driving the Dialogue on Industry Implementation

A key highlight of the forum was the industry dialogue titled “Sino-French Enterprises Together Exploring New Tracks for Future Industry Cooperation.” Jerry Jiang, President of NXpark and CEO of Aden Energy, participated in the panel alongside corporate representatives from the fields of smart equipment, biopharmaceuticals, industrial IT, and AI.

The leaders engaged in deep discussions regarding breakthroughs in smart manufacturing, scene innovations in biomedicine, the balance of trust and benefit in data liquidity, and potential paths toward co-building Sino-French AI standards.

A Core Consensus: The dialogue concluded that “the scenario is the ultimate proving ground for technology implementation.” For future industries to transition from proof-of-concept to large-scale deployment, technological breakthroughs alone are not enough; they require the robust support of industrial infrastructure, enhanced collaboration efficiency, and the precise matching of supply and demand resources.

NXpark’s Strategic Role in Sino-French Industrial Cooperation

This industry consensus perfectly aligns with Aden Group’s long-term strategy and investments in industrial infrastructure. Advanced manufacturing and future industries do not just need mature individual technologies—they require integrated implementation platforms that can host validation, support smart operations, and connect industrial resources.

As Aden Group’s premier industrial infrastructure brand, NXpark is the embodiment of this vision. NXpark focuses on the investment, development, and operation of zero-carbon and digital industrial parks. Leveraging digital twin platforms and data operations, NXpark provides comprehensive, full-lifecycle solutions for advanced manufacturing and future industries.

A prime example of this model is the Sino-French (Wuxi) Industrial Cooperation Park:

• A Landmark Project: Developed under the guidance of the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the Consulate General of France, it is China’s first “Sino-French Cooperation Demonstration Zone” certified by the CCI France Chine.
• Full-Lifecycle Digital Management: Invested and developed by NXpark, the park utilizes advanced digital management across its entire lifecycle, including design, construction, and operations.
• Next-Gen “Super Factory”: The core area houses the Schneider Electric Green Smart Industrial Park, a $150 million investment destined to become a next-generation “super factory” integrating R&D, production, and sales.

Unlocking Mutual Wins Through Scenarios

Currently, the complementary strengths of China and France are accelerating across fields like smart manufacturing, green energy, biomedicine, and digital technology. France possesses deep foundational research and system integration expertise, while China offers vast application scenarios and rapid industrial iteration. Turning these advantages into sustainable business results relies heavily on establishing efficient connection mechanisms and reliable hosting platforms.

NXpark serves as this critical bridge. By offering zero-carbon and digital industrial infrastructure, it provides the long-term support necessary for manufacturing’s green transition and the growth of future industries.

Looking ahead, Aden Group will continue to harness its integrated capabilities across smart industrial parks, low-carbon energy, digital platforms, and operational services. By connecting industry, technology, and capital, Aden and NXpark remain committed to providing resilient, sustainable, and future-ready foundations for the next generation of global manufacturing.
