From June 23rd to 25th, 2026, the 2026 Dalian Summer Davos Forum was held in Dalian.

At a sub-forum titled "Is the Deep Tech Market Deep Enough?", Zhu Min, former Vice President of the International Monetary Fund, stated that in the era of General AI, the barriers to investment are significantly lowering, and participants in industrial investment will become much more diverse.

"We have been discussing investment, and we have professional investment institutions," Zhu Min said. "But in the next five years, everyone here will have access to AGI and can become an investor, embracing General AI. The information everyone can access will be largely the same, and with that information, anyone can participate in investment."

At the same time, the core value logic of industry is undergoing a complete reversal. "It is intellectual property that attracts investment, not investment that creates intellectual property," Zhu Min emphasized, noting that technology, IP, and application scenarios are becoming the fundamental drivers for investment in the new era.

Zhu Min also expressed that in the future, China will see the emergence of millions, even tens of millions, of OPCs, far exceeding the number in the United States. The country possesses a vast number of factories and a rich array of industrial application scenarios. AI applications will be ubiquitous, offering immense development potential and providing an excellent environment for the industrial implementation of General AI.
