NANJING, Nov. 27 (Xinhua) — China has built more than 7,000 modern smart factories, becoming the world's largest application base for smart manufacturing technologies, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) said Thursday.

This was noted by Vice Minister of Industry and Information Technology Xin Guobin during his speech at the 2025 World Conference on Intelligent Manufacturing, which is being held from Thursday to Saturday in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province (Eastern China).

According to him, thanks to industry-wide approaches and multi-layered development, China has built over 500 top-tier smart factories. Fifteen companies have been selected to participate in the flagship smart factory development program.

China has developed global capabilities in the supply of system solutions. The total industrial scale of China's intelligent manufacturing equipment, industrial software, and system solutions has exceeded 4.5 trillion yuan (approximately $635.5 billion).

Providers of intelligent solutions for automotive production systems, batteries, and the petrochemical industry are accelerating their global expansion, building service networks covering key production regions around the world. Their highly adaptable and cost-effective offerings are giving new impetus to the global manufacturing industry.

In 2024, China began implementing a phased development program for smart factories, according to which intelligent factories will be classified into four categories: basic, advanced, leading, and pioneer. -0-
