China's digital economy achievements impress foreign youth
In 2022, Guizhou accelerated the development of the big data industry, with the added value of the electronic information manufacturing industry within the province rising by more than 60 percent.
Wisdom Agbottah, a young software engineer from Ghana's national information technology agency, is another new participant at the expo, which has been held in Guiyang since 2015.
Prior to the expo, Agbottah visited several big data companies and factories, as well as a smart agriculture base, in China. He came mainly for a software and hardware network seminar during the three-day event.
"We visited a company that deals with big data in agriculture. We also visited greenhouses and learned how they use their sensors and patent technology to gather results and data from the soil, and how they help the plants to grow."
"We also visited automobile manufacturing plants that use a lot of machines and robots to streamline the manufacturing of cars," he added. "It's been really eye-opening."
