Hongqiao revolutionizes manufacturing, beauty industries with internet service platforms

Shanghai's Jiading district now hosts two groundbreaking "Hongqiao Productive Internet Service Platforms" - Shanghai Gongboshi and Yifei Group's industry service platform. These platforms are revolutionizing the traditional manufacturing sector with a sharp focus on digital transformation, innovation, and high-quality growth.

Leading the charge in intelligent manufacturing, Shanghai Gongboshi is at the forefront of digitizing traditional industries.

Shen Jianxun, vice-president of Shanghai Gongboshi, emphasizes the importance of integrating and analyzing vast data to drive actionable insights amidst growing data volumes and complex industrial environments.

Gongboshi commits 8 percent of its annual profits to R&D, boasting hundreds of software patents and having already launched four new products this year. Its partnership with Shanghai Jiao Tong University highlights a commitment to nurturing top-tier digital talents, blending academic research with industry needs.

In a similar vein, Yifei Group targets the digital transformation of the global beauty and fashion consumer goods sector, bringing together over 100,000 member companies—from brands and retailers to influencers and manufacturers.

With its expansive ecosystem of apps, mini-programs, a media matrix, and offline events, Yifei connects over 15,000 paying members, facilitating industry-wide empowerment and innovation.

By actively developing the YimeiShang Industrial Park in North Hongqiao, Yifei Group aims to create a digital hub for the beauty industry. 

This initiative is a cornerstone of North Hongqiao Business District's ambition to become a leading digital industry base that fosters collaborative innovation and advances the region's economic and intelligent manufacturing capabilities.

Together, these platforms signify a major leap toward integrating platform economics with traditional industries, setting a benchmark for innovation and sustainable growth in Shanghai.
