TanLIVE digital platform seeks to connect and empower green-tech change agents in the fight against climate change
SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Tencent, the world-leading internet and technology company, today announced that it will hold the global launch of TanLIVE, its climate community platform, at the upcoming COP28, the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference.

The launch will be undertaken in collaboration with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition, a group of like-minded climate actors that seek to drive the growth of the climate technology ecosystem, which has been enabled by the COP28.
Designed to connect and empower organizations working toward carbon neutrality, TanLIVE offers collaborative tools including community networking, project listings, and an ecosystem of vetted technological and financing solutions for entrepreneurs, investors, and research institutions in the climate sector. The digital platform was originally launched by Tencent in China last year. Through TanLIVE’s worldwide availability, and the addition of new features designed in collaboration with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition, Tencent hopes to foster a global community of green technology innovators and like-minded partners.
Connecting Global Climate Experts at COP28
Taking place in the UAE in November 2023, COP 28 is a pivotal opportunity for transformative climate action, which will see global leaders come together to negotiate further action on key issues such as climate change mitigation, adaptation, and finance.
At COP28, Tencent will showcase its dedication to climate solutions through TanLIVE, the first initiative of the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition. A collaborative effort between Masdar City, Tencent, and Catalyst as anchor partners, the coalition aims to identify and magnify ongoing and future initiatives to accelerate the growth of climate technologies and create ecosystems that support their development.
In addition to these anchor partners, a diverse group of climate technology stakeholders from around the world have joined the coalition as knowledge, program or roll-out partners to create an inclusive environment for collaboration to advance climate solutions. The coalition will also build upon the success of Masdar City’s Innovate, launched in 2021 to support startups and showcase their work.
Innovate for Climate Tech will carry on its legacy beyond the two-week conference by initiating ongoing initiatives and expanding its network. Interested entities are welcome to contact the coalition at [email protected] and [email protected].
“We’re proud to launch TanLIVE globally, as we strive to drive changes toward a low-carbon society,” said Dr. Hao Xu, Vice President of Tencent Sustainable Social Value (SSV) and Head of Tencent Carbon Neutrality Lab. “By making the platform accessible worldwide and partnering with the Innovate for Climate Tech coalition with the support of COP28, we hope to accelerate the speed and scale of frontier technologies and connect like-minded individuals and organizations who are all working for the same goal: a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future.”
Since launching last year, TanLIVE has already established partnerships with many local and international organizations. This includes major institutional users such as Impact Hub Shanghai, New Energy Nexus, Plug & Play China, C Team, Meituan Qingshan Project and more. The broad network of members demonstrates Tencent’s role in assembling a global community committed to driving climate action through collaboration. As the network expands further, TanLIVE looks forward to welcoming additional key players with shared urgent goals.

BEIJING, June 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bionic robots that speak both Chinese and English can have the same skin and nails as humans? A flying car powered solely by wind can have a maximum payload of 160 kg? A smart wheelchair can control its operation with just the “mind”? Kevin and Daria, two foreign bloggers, have experienced during the World Intelligence Expo held in Tianjin how the artificial intelligence can empower people’s future lives in industries such as technology, trade, logistics and cultural tourism.

 
With the theme of “Intelligent Travel Empowering Future”, the Expo integrates exhibitions, experiences and events, attracting more than 550 exhibitors and institutions from all over the world, including more than 70 well-known enterprises such as Huawei, Alibaba, Baidu and Danfoss, and 57 universities and research institutions such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Nankai University and Tianjin University. The Expo set up 10 major themes such as artificial intelligence, intelligent networked vehicles, intelligent manufacturing and robots, covering the frontier hot spots of the intelligent industry. A number of cutting-edge new technologies, new products, and new experiences from all over the world were showcased centrally, reminding people that technology will completely change the lifestyles in the future.
At the exhibition site, various intelligent robot products such as humanoid robots, bionic robots, and intelligent robot dogs interact with the audience on the spot. They are no longer fantasies in science fiction or movies, but play an important role in monitoring, rescue, cultural tourism and other fields. In the low-altitude economic exhibition area, a number of drones, flying vehicles, and aerospace technology companies collectively display advanced technology products. A low-altitude aircraft shaped like a helicopter brought by the German company Tensor can independently complete cargo transportation, takeoff and landing according to pre-set routes according to the instructions. Robotic arms incorporating technologies such as 5G, IoT, edge computing, rocker robotics, and artificial intelligence can shoot high-frame-rate video and support autofocus, achieving effects that cannot be achieved in traditional shooting modes. Viewers can also have more novel experiences with the help of smart technology.
The Expo also hosted three major events such as the Asia-Pacific Robotics World Cup Tianjin International Invitational, the World Intelligent Driving Challenge, and the International Intelligent Sports Conference. A number of technological achievements and innovative applications were demonstrated in the competitions. For exhibiting companies, this Expo is also an opportunity to further promote the transformation of enterprises to information technology and digitalization, and will also bring huge business opportunities.
