       As the country's first provincial digital business association, since its establishment, Heilongjiang Digital Commerce Association (hereinafter referred to as the "Association") has been taking digital commerce to lead the high-quality development of the regional economy as the main program, and is committed to promoting the integration and development of the Internet, big data, artificial intelligence and traditional business models through technological innovation and model innovation, giving birth to more new models and new formats to participate in market competition at a faster speed, fundamentally changing the traditional business model and operation system, and contributing to the development of digital commerce in the province. At the 2022 China (Heilongjiang) Development Zone Conference Digital Economy Empowering Northeast Revitalization Forum held on the 19th, Jiao Huiying, president of the Heilongjiang Digital Business Association, said.

       The 13th Party Congress of Heilongjiang Province proposed to build a new engine for economic development such as digital economy, bioeconomy, ice and snow economy, and creative design industry. In order to help the development of enterprises, the Heilongjiang Digital Commerce Association has launched a series of digital economy investment promotion toolkits, using promotional videos, VR, brochures, PPT production and other publicity means to help regions or enterprises completely plan digital economy investment promotion activities and help create personalized business cards. "Since its establishment, the association has been committed to helping local investment promotion through investment promotion meetings, forums, matchmaking meetings and other activities, online or offline, and has achieved the expected results." Jiao Huiying said。

      "In order to further deepen territorial services and penetrate into market entities, with the approval of the Provincial Department of Commerce, the Heilongjiang Digital Commerce Association will set up liaison service stations in each city (prefecture) and county to better contact enterprises, understand needs, and connect resources." Jiao Huiying said that in order to implement the requirements of the 13th Provincial Party Congress for the revitalization of science and education and the revitalization of talents, to meet the needs of all kinds of enterprises to retain talents, to attract more graduates of colleges and universities to stay in Heilongjiang for employment and entrepreneurship, to leave talents in Heilongjiang for development, to solve the problem of recruitment difficulties for all kinds of talents in various investment promotion enterprises, to give full play to the advantages of university education and scientific research in our province, to promote the transformation of scientific research achievements to better connect with local industries, and to promote the search for more suitable investment projects. With the support of the Provincial Department of Commerce and the Provincial Department of Education, the Heilongjiang Digital Commerce Association is responsible for establishing the Heilongjiang Digital Economy Industry-University Alliance to make positive contributions to the high-quality development of the digital economy and digital trade in Heilongjiang Province.

       In the context of intelligent development, the digital twin management platform helps to achieve unified and refined management on the basis of three-dimensional visualization of the park. Jiao Huiying said that the next 5-10 years may be shorter, and the era of the metaverse will come, which is a virtual world that uses scientific and technological means to link and create, map and interact with the real world, and a digital living space with a new social system. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the arrival of the era of health care brought about by the aging of the population, which will be the direction that our development zone and even local governments need to plan in advance. Our provincial digital business association also has a layout and resources in these areas.

      In the next step, the Heilongjiang Digital Commerce Association will further build consensus for the development of the digital economy in our province, and combine the association's own advantages and actual work to explore, lead, aggregate, empower and help the revitalization and development of Northeast China in the field of digital economy.
