On March 28, the inaugural “2026 OPC Innovation and Entrepreneurship Summit and AI Application Practice Challenge,” jointly initiated and hosted by SIXUNITED, Songjiang University Town Science and Technology Innovation Source, and Shoujie Technology, came to a successful close in Shanghai’s Songjiang District. This grand event, bringing together policymakers, industry leaders, investors, and cutting-edge practitioners, not only showcased the vigorous vitality of the “One Person Company” (OPC) model in the wave of AI but also served as a vivid example of collaborative innovation across the entire industrial chain.

As the core organizer of this event and one of the first “AI+Manufacturing” model enterprises in Shanghai, SIXUNITED has been deeply involved throughout the entire event. Leveraging its 18 years of industry experience, cutting-edge technical insights, and practical resource support, SIXUNITED has collaborated with partners from various sectors to explore the development trends of AI hardware terminals, thereby helping Songjiang establish itself as a hub for OPC innovation and entrepreneurship.

Driving Innovation through Collaboration: Songjiang Cultivates a Fertile Ground for OPC Startups

As OpenClaw propels AI from a “chat-based advisor” to an “execution-driven enabler,” the OPC model has emerged as a new growth driver for the AI industry—and Shanghai’s Songjiang District, leveraging its robust capabilities as the birthplace of the G60 Science and Technology Innovation Corridor in the Yangtze River Delta, has become a fertile ground where OPC entrepreneurs can turn their visions into reality. The Songjiang District Government has rolled out a comprehensive suite of support measures centered on building a premier hub for science and technology innovation, covering everything from tackling key common technologies and developing high-caliber innovation platforms to providing financial support and talent retention, thereby offering all-round safeguards for AI startups. Moreover, by drawing on the innovation ecosystem of Songjiang University Town, the district is fostering an end-to-end, empowerment-driven startup community where innovative resources converge, integrate, and spark breakthroughs.

At this summit, Liu Chunjian, Chairman of SIXUNITED, attended and delivered the opening address. He stated that the initiative for this summit is precisely to use Songjiang as a platform to bring together key elements such as talent, technology, industry, and capital, thereby smoothing the critical pathway from innovative ideas to industrial implementation, promoting the deep integration of AI with the real economy, and helping more innovative projects make the leap from zero to one and then to large-scale development.

Technology Leads the Way: Decoding the New Future of AI Hardware Terminals

Policies guide the direction, while technology defines the boundaries. As the core platform for delivering AI capabilities, AI hardware terminals are the critical enabler that bridges the gap between the OPC model’s conceptualization and its practical implementation. During the keynote session of this summit, Zhao Biao, Deputy General Manager of the SIXUNITED R&D Center, delivered a compelling presentation titled “Trends in AI Hardware Terminals.” Drawing on SIXUNITED’s technological expertise and industry insights in the AI hardware space, he unveiled new directions for the development of AI hardware terminals, providing attendees with a clear vision of the productivity tools required by “super individuals.”

General Manager Zhao Biao pointed out that the AI industry is currently undergoing two core transformations: first, driven by an explosive growth in computing power, AI is accelerating its migration from the cloud to the edge, reshaping every physical interaction point; second, we have entered the inaugural year of physical AI, with intelligent agents evolving from cold lines of code into active participants in the physical world, endowed with perception, reasoning, and action capabilities. This transformation is also enabling end devices to evolve from mere computational tools into intelligent gateways that perceive the world and interact with all things.

As one of the first “AI+Manufacturing” model enterprises in Shanghai, SIXUNITED has focused on AI PC computing power scheduling, power consumption control, and system collaboration, creating a diversified product portfolio that covers laptops, Mini PCs, AI all-in-one machines, tablets, workstations, and servers. In addition, it has established deep strategic partnerships with global top chip suppliers such as AMD, keeping pace with the development trend of the new “Agent Computer” category. SIXUNITED provides comprehensive hardware solutions for OPC entrepreneurs in various scenarios, ranging from daily office work to local deployment of ultra-large models, ensuring that AI computing power truly becomes the confidence booster for individual entrepreneurs.

Empowering with strength: leveraging robust resources to support entrepreneurial endeavors.

According to SIXUNITED’s philosophy, the value of technology lies in its practical application, and the vitality of innovation lies in empowerment. At this summit, SIXUNITED not only shared cutting-edge technologies but also provided tangible resource support, enabling entrepreneurs in attendance to directly experience the robust capabilities of AI hardware terminals. During the interactive lucky draw, an AI tablet manufactured by SIXUNITED was presented as a grand prize, and Yang Liang, Sales Director of SIXUNITED Shanghai, was invited on stage to present the award.

This product integrates SIXUNITED’s core AI computing power scheduling and low-power control technologies, catering to the daily office needs of OPC entrepreneurs in areas such as AI document generation, meeting minutes compilation, and creative design. It is a productivity tool tailor-made by SIXUNITED for super individuals, and it also exemplifies SIXUNITED’s end-to-end service capabilities—from R&D and design, to motherboard development, to mass production and delivery.

Ecological Co-prosperity: Witnessing the Innovative Achievements of AI + OPC

A truly valuable science-and-tech innovation summit is not merely a forum for the exchange of ideas; it is also a platform for showcasing tangible results and co-building a thriving ecosystem. Centered on the “competition-meets-conference” model, this summit featured an AI Application Practice Challenge that brought together outstanding entrepreneurial cases across multiple domains, including AI + film and entertainment, AI + law, AI + healthcare, and AI + education. Ten entrepreneurs shared their on-the-ground experiences in deploying AI technologies within their respective industries, highlighting the unique advantages of the OPC model—light asset footprint, rapid iteration, and deep vertical specialization—and demonstrating to attendees the limitless potential of AI in empowering countless sectors.

At the summit, companies across the AI industry chain engaged in dialogue, with policy makers, computing power providers, hardware manufacturers, model developers, and investors working together. This collaboration not only resulted in a collection of AI-plus-industry application cases but also established a mechanism for incubating and following up on high-quality projects, ensuring the long-term accumulation of innovative outcomes. Through deep collaboration with partners such as SIXUNITED, AMD, and Shoujie Technology, a closed-loop ecosystem has been formed encompassing AI hardware, model ecosystems, and application development, providing comprehensive ecological support for OPC startups.

Gather Momentum in Songjiang, Co-create the Future with Intelligence

The successful hosting of this “Smart Hub Songjiang: OPC Innovation and Entrepreneurship Summit and AI Application Practice Challenge” marks a solid step forward for Songjiang in the field of AI innovation and entrepreneurship, while also providing a crucial fulcrum for the development of the OPC ecosystem.
