On the afternoon of August 29th, the Shenzhen International Convention and Exhibition Center's Shannongyuan successfully held a special session on "AI and RWA Empowering Education," a major industry event focused on the future of education. The forum, co-hosted by the Shenzhen Artificial Intelligence Industry Association and Dayang Group Holdings Limited (HK1991), featured a special session titled "AI and RWA Empowering Education," at the Shenzhen International Artificial Intelligence Industry Development Conference in Hall 12 of the Shenzhen International Convention and Exhibition Center. The conference focused on the innovative integration of AI and RWA in education, bringing together industry experts and business leaders to explore new paths for intelligent upgrades in the education industry.
Leveraging the power of the industry, we are promoting new developments in education enabled by AI and RWA.
At the opening of the conference, Fan Congming, Executive President of the Shenzhen Artificial Intelligence Industry Association, delivered a speech. On behalf of the association and its over 1,400 member organizations, he extended warm congratulations on the convening of the special session and extended a warm welcome and sincere gratitude to all the guests, experts, scholars, and corporate representatives who attended.
President Fan noted that under the wave of general artificial intelligence, the deep integration of AI and RWA presents new opportunities for educational transformation. This conference's focus on AI and RWA empowering education is of great significance. Education is a major national and Party priority. Leveraging AI and RWA to promote the digital and intelligent transformation of education will help optimize the allocation of educational resources, improve educational quality and equity, and provide strong support for cultivating innovative talent for the new era.
As a global hub for scientific and technological innovation, Shenzhen is accelerating the application of AI technology in education and other fields. The association, with its mission of "connecting the industrial ecosystem and driving intelligent development," is actively promoting multi-sector collaboration to help build a more vibrant industrial ecosystem. Finally, President Fan wished the special event a complete success and expressed hope that all parties will work together to use AI and RWA to create a smarter and more dynamic future for education.
Dayang Group (01991.HK), a long-established Hong Kong-listed company, was one of the organizers, showcasing its Web 4.0 strategic layout. Shi Qi, Chairman of Dayang Group, delivered a speech, and Tan Shuilian, CMO of Dayang Group, provided an in-depth analysis of how AI and real-world asset tokenization (RWA) technology are reshaping education. The Greater Bay Area AI Ecosystem Fund and the Global Web 4.0 AI Finance Club were also announced, injecting new momentum into digital transformation.
Transforming on-chain assets breaks down barriers to the circulation of traditional educational resources.
"Today is not only the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet across the Milky Way, but also a significant moment in the 'marriage of technology and finance' between AI and RWA," said Shi Qi, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Dayang Group. "We are building a 'financial bridge' that efficiently connects the value of education with artificial intelligence and the capital market!" Shi Qi emphasized that educational assets are like the stars in the sky, their immense value yet long blocked by the Milky Way, making them difficult to measure and circulate. The integration of AI and RWA is the key to breaking this dilemma: AI, as the "super brain," reshapes the educational experience, while RWA serves as the "financial bridge" that facilitates the flow of value.
Dayang Group has been listed on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for over 18 years. On August 20th of this year, it released its Web 4.0 strategic transformation blueprint in Hong Kong, with education being one of the three core areas of the group's AI + RWA empowerment.
"We are at the starting point of Web 4.0. New technologies such as AI digital humans, blockchain, and asset tokenization are redefining the boundaries between 'teaching' and 'learning.'" Shi Qi emphasized in his speech that education, as the cornerstone of human civilization, faces a critical period of opportunity for innovation and transformation in the digital age.
When outlining Dayang Group's educational strategy, Shi Qi identified three key development directions: personalization, intelligence, and assetization. Shi Qi stated that the group is leveraging AI digital human technology to create teaching content and interactive experiences that are highly tailored to student needs, shifting education from "standardized supply" to "customized service." Furthermore, leveraging the RWA mechanism, the group is transforming teaching and research findings, course IP, and knowledge products into tradable, valueable, and shareable on-chain assets, breaking down the barriers to the circulation of traditional educational resources.
Focusing on RWA for Teaching and Research, AI Empowers Personalized Education
At the forum, Ocean Group CMO Tan Shuilian delivered a keynote speech titled "The Rise of Smart Assets: AI and Real Asset Tokenization (RWA) Co-create a New Landscape for the Education Industry." She delved into how AI and the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) can work together to create a new ecosystem for the education industry and shared Ocean Group's practices and plans in the field of smart assets.
Tan Shuilian pointed out that RWA can tokenize real-world assets such as bonds, power plants, and corporate equity. Ocean Group has also tokenized equity, allowing investors to enjoy increased value. AI can transform data into "thinkable assets," and the combination of the two will give rise to "smart assets." Tan Shuilian emphasized that education is the ideal application scenario for smart assets: education is a long-term investment, and RWA can standardize and transparent investment targets. Blockchain technology ensures data authenticity and traceability. AI can reshape educational provision, providing customized services through AI digital humans and tutors, and will also introduce AI personalized agents.
Tan Shuilian also revealed that Dayang Group is one of the first listed companies to implement the same rights for tokens and shares in the RWA (Resource Based Assets) sector. The company's equity is issued on a regulated exchange in Singapore after institutional custody. In the future, Dayang Group will undertake more RWA business from listed companies, develop AI-powered personalized intelligent entities, and establish a standard system for RWA token-share equality and operational guidelines for education RWAs. This will promote the deep integration of the education industry and smart assets, and facilitate the return of global capital to Chinese companies.
At the forum, experts from legal, technical, and educational practice shared their insights on a number of key topics, offering diverse perspectives on the implementation of AI and RWA in education. These topics ranged from discussions on the legal compliance of RWA transaction structures to practical application cases of AI digital humans in classroom interactions; from the practical results of AI technology reshaping scientific experimental teaching to an analysis of the incubation path for youth knowledge IP. The topics covered the entire technology, legal, and operational chain.
The forum featured a strong lineup of panelists, including Fan Congming, Executive Chairman of the Shenzhen Artificial Intelligence Industry Association (AGIC), and Professor Zhao Kefeng, Academic Chairman of the Shenzhen Artificial Intelligence Industry Association. These experts, representing diverse roles including business leaders, academic experts, and investment representatives, provided cross-disciplinary intellectual support for the discussions.
The dedicated sharing sessions also featured numerous highlights, with guests providing in-depth analysis of industry trends based on practical case studies. Gan Haitao, Product Director of Shenzhen Times Intelligence Technology, discussed the multi-disciplinary application prospects of personalized AI agents. Kong Lingkuo, CEO of Magic Eye (Beijing) Technology, and Wang Xuan, CEO of Beijing Renren Spark Technology, shared concrete practical results of AI-enabled education, with the themes of "AI Reconstructing the Science Classroom" and "New Trends in the Children's Cultural Industry in the AI Era," respectively. Zhou Mingqiang, Chairman of China Hydrogen New Energy, shared a case study of the RWA digital asset revolution in the hydrogen energy sector.
The compliance of virtual assets is crucial. At the forum, Yang Dong, a distinguished professor of the Ministry of Education's "Changjiang Scholars Program" and Executive Director of the Blockchain Research Institute at Renmin University of China, shared insights on the compliance and innovation opportunities of RWAs. He noted that the current surge in interest in RWAs presents room for Hong Kong to explore compliance initiatives. He also shared Hong Kong's collaborative achievements and suggested focusing on new energy, green, and low-carbon sectors for RWA compliance practices.
The experts' presentations revealed that assets in education, hydrogen energy, and even other industries are being comprehensively enhanced through AI, building data-based and standardized underlying assets. These assets are being transformed through RWAs into compliant, intelligent assets that are valued, tradable, and circulated, significantly increasing capital participation and value liquidity across the industry. The industry consensus is that the trillion-dollar race for AI-based RWAs to empower education and other industries has officially begun, ushering in a new era of "data assetization, asset digitization, and digital finance."
