Today, Xiaomi officially announced that the 2018 MIDC Xiaomi AIoT Developers Conference will be held in Beijing from November 28 to 29. Lei Jun, the founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group, invited the industry to jointly promote the development of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things industry and create a new era of "intelligent interconnection of everything".
Lei Jun has repeatedly stressed that "AI+IoT" is one of Xiaomi's core strategies. At the 2018 Shanghai World Artificial Intelligence Conference, Lei Jun, combining the development of Xiaomi, boldly predicted that mankind would enter a new era of intelligent interconnection of everything with AI and IoT, and took the lead in proposing the concept of "AI+IoT" intelligent interconnection of everything.
According to industry insiders, Xiaomi is a well deserved global leader in the field of "AI+IoT", and its sales of IoT products are even considered as the vane of global smart device consumption trends. This conference will undoubtedly be the most important industry event of the year.

After Xiaomi launched the AI comprehensive empowerment strategy, it has driven the IoT and consumer goods business to continue to advance rapidly in the past year. In the third quarter, the business revenue reached 10.805 billion yuan, an increase of 89.8% year on year. At the same time, the total revenue of the business in the first three quarters reached 28.8 billion yuan, which exceeded the annual revenue of the business last year.
At the first conference last year, Lei Jun announced that Xiaomi had built the world's largest consumer level IoT platform. According to iResearch data, based on the number of connections, Xiaomi accounted for 1.7% of the global market share of consumer grade IoT hardware in 2017, far ahead of Apple by 0.9%, Amazon by 0.9%, Samsung by 0.7% and Google by 0.6%.
It is recognized in the industry that Xiaomi is the pioneer and catalyst of "AI+IoT" industry. At present, Xiaomi has invested and incubated 220 ecological chain enterprises, of which more than 100 focus on intelligent hardware and consumer goods. Xiaomi and Xiaomi Ecological Chain Co., Ltd. have launched many products and achieved the first place in the world, such as smart bracelets, air purifiers, etc. In 2018, several Xiaomi eco chain companies such as Huami Technology and Yunmi Technology have been successfully listed. In July 2017, Xiaomi released its first AI product, AI speaker Xiaoai, which became a popular product due to its insistence on "touching and affordable" pricing. Industry insiders pointed out that thanks to the creation and leadership of Xiaomi, major domestic manufacturers, such as Tmall Genie, small speakers, Dingdong speakers, have quickly followed up, greatly promoting the development of China's smart speakers industry.
Behind the rapid progress of "AI+IoT", Xiaomi's accumulation of AI technology has won many awards and won recognition in the industry. At the 2018 World Internet Conference, Xiaomi AI Open Platform won a significant "World Internet Leading Scientific and Technological Achievements" award, which is also the most top scientific and technological leading achievement in 2018 and can best represent the world Internet development frontier. In addition, Xiaomi won the honor of "Top 10 Chinese AI Leading Enterprises" at the 2018 World AI Summit, and is also one of the top 50 Chinese big data enterprises in 2018. Xiao'ai was shortlisted for the SAIL Award at the 2018 World Artificial Intelligence Conference, and won the double awards of "2018 Leading Scientific and Technological Achievements Award • Black Technology" and "2018 Leading Scientific and Technological Achievements Award • New Products" at the 2018 China International Big Data Industry Expo. On November 15, Xiaomi MACE just won the excellent open source project in Northeast Asia in Japan.
Industry experts believe that Xiaomi has not only made great achievements in the field of "AI+IoT", but also its comprehensive opening strategy has been praised by all parties and highly praised by the industry. Previously, Xiaomi completely opened the artificial intelligence computing engine MACE, and disclosed the IoT device connection protocol and Xiaoai's intelligent question and answer system. Since Xiaomi announced its IoT developer plan, there has been continuous access to third-party devices and applications. Not long ago, Che Hejia formed a cooperation with Xiaomi's Xiaoai classmate and equipped with the whole car's intelligent voice system.
At this conference, Xiaomi will bring more complete IoT software and hardware integration solutions, more abundant AI open ecology, and closer global partners. Coming soon.
