Advancing AI Strategy Deeply into Financial Services, Manufacturing and Public Sectors

BEIJING and SUZHOU, China, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, Jiangsu BoCloud Technology Co., Ltd. (“BoCloud”), a leading Chinese provider of cloud-native AI computing infrastructure software solutions, announced the completion of a new round of strategic financing worth hundreds of millions of yuan. This financing round was led by incremental investment from Suzhou Oriza Holdings Corporation (shortened as Oriza Holdings) and Harvest Capital, with state-owned capital institutions from multiple regions including Baohe District of Hefei and Zhangjiagang joining as follow-on investors. The funds will strongly back the company’s in-depth advancement of its artificial intelligence strategy.

China’s AI market is transitioning from algorithm innovation to industrial implementation, entering a phase of large-scale commercialization and explosive growth. With the widespread adoption of general large language models, enterprises’ digital demands are rapidly shifting from basic computing power supply to building full-chain intelligent systems embedded in business workflows.

Drawing on over a decade of cloud-native technology accumulation, BoCloud has systematically built a full-stack technical architecture covering “cloud-native infrastructure base – AI platform capabilities – AI-native intelligent agents”, forming a complete closed loop spanning “GPU resource pooling – large model deployment optimization – Token generation operation – industry scenario implementation of AI Agents”. Since 2026, responding to the popularization of large models and enterprises’ digital upgrading drive, the company has achieved a strategic leap from underlying infrastructure (Infra) to upper-layer AI Agent forms.

Since the start of this year, BoCloud has successively launched a suite of products: BoClaw, a desktop AI assistant for individual users; BoAgent, an AI intelligent agent platform for government and enterprise clients; BoCoder, an AI coding agent for R&D scenarios; as well as industry-specific solutions targeting financial services, manufacturing, government administration and other sectors. These products represent the concentrated outcomes of BoCloud’s years of continuous expansion into AI, and also reflect profound transformations brought by the company’s comprehensive AI integration in product design, technology application, R&D management and corporate operation.

Investors’ Perspectives

“BoCloud’s team maintains forward-looking and clear insights into industrial development,” stated Oriza Holdings. “As an early investor in BoCloud, Oriza has witnessed the company’s transformation from cloud-native technology to artificial intelligence. This year, we have clearly observed BoCloud’s drastically accelerated pace of deeply integrating AI technology with industry applications. Under the leadership of Mr. Hua, the company has successfully completed parallel development across cloud-native and artificial intelligence tracks, filling us with greater confidence in BoCloud’s outstanding performance amid this wave of AI industrial revolution.”

“Built on more than ten years of cloud-native technology accumulation, BoCloud has constructed a complete product architecture ranging from cloud-native base and AI platform capabilities to AI-native intelligent agents, capable of delivering full-stack services to support clients’ AI intelligent upgrading and enabling practical implementation of AI technologies in production environments,” said Sheng Gang, Chairman of Harvest Capital. “We highly recognize BoCloud’s FDE delivery model, a system that ensures robust customer stickiness and underpins the company’s long-term growth.”

As the core urban area of Hefei, Baohe District closely follows the “Digital Baohe” strategic deployment, prioritizing breakthroughs in AI and fintech to build a digital economic highland with prominent influence across the Yangtze River Delta. Liu Jin, an official from Baohe District Government, Hefei, commented: “BoCloud has stationed its FICC financial intelligent agent team in Baohe, focusing on financial intelligent agent solutions with mature product portfolios including trading assistants and investment research assistants. This aligns perfectly with Baohe District’s strategy of building a regional financial sci-tech center and developing headquarters economy. Investing in BoCloud not only introduces a high-caliber digital economic flagship enterprise to Baohe, but also constitutes a strategic move to seize opportunities from the AI industrial revolution and foster new productive forces. This investment will undoubtedly drive the aggregation of upstream and downstream industrial ecosystems, empowering Baohe to seize the initiative amid the AI transformation wave.”

Zhangjiagang City is comprehensively advancing the “Innovative Zhangjiagang” strategy, capitalizing on integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta to accelerate the intelligent and digital transformation of traditional advantageous industries including metallurgy, chemical engineering and textiles. He Tian, person-in-charge of the Digital Economy Department at Zhangjiagang Digital Technology Co., Ltd., remarked: “BoCloud has deep roots in industrial manufacturing, with abundant benchmark experience accumulated in industrial intelligent scenarios. BoCloud’s dual architecture of AI Infra and AI Agent connects the full link from computing power scheduling to intelligent agent applications, providing one-stop intelligent upgrading support for the city’s manufacturing sector. Jiangsu Zhiji Artificial Intelligence Technology Co., Ltd., a joint venture co-established by BoCloud Technology and Zhangjiagang Digital Technology Co., Ltd. leveraging state-owned capital background, boasts natural advantages in connecting and integrating diverse industrial resources. This investment in BoCloud serves as a long-term strategic layout to secure a position on the new AI infrastructure track, and also a key initiative for Zhangjiagang to gather high-end digital resources, boost quality and efficiency of real industries and realize industrial transformation and upgrading.”

A record 45% of Americans identify with neither party. On November 3, they get the first nationally televised Election Night built around the independent voter bloc, presented by United Independents, the organization behind the Independent National Convention, in partnership with DeFiance Media.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Can the country’s largest bloc of voters turn identity into representation? Independents now make up 45% of U.S. adults, a record high in Gallup’s 2025 data, yet partisan coverage continues to dominate mainstream mediums. On November 3, one broadcast will cover the election from the Independent point of view.

Built for the Voters Both Parties Are Chasing

Two generations of Americans have come of age as independent voters, and in 74 years of nationally televised Election Night broadcasts, not one has been built around them. This one is: national results and the balance of power, dedicated coverage of the independent candidates who could tip the next Congress, and a live chat with selected viewer questions put to the hosts and guests on air.
