广州归谷科技园的首届“海创路演会”

6大高精尖硅谷项目,40多家创投机构,齐聚首届海创路演会。

6月23日,首届“海创路演会”在广州归谷科技园成功举办,本次活动由广州归谷科技园与舜会资本共同合作,旨在为优质项目与投资机构进行对接,搭建海外科技、资本、人才和文化交流的平台。
活动火热筹办
现场活动气氛热烈,座无虚席


来自美国前科技项目、国家“千人计划”专家分别展示了VR技术、芯片检测、人工智能投资、智能商务、纳米抗体药物、语意机器人等领域的精尖成果;来自不同投资领域的和君资本等40家风投公司认真聆听了科技项目路演,并表示浓厚兴趣及投资意向,各自进行了项目孵化、投资意向深入对接了解。

海创路演会的启动,标志着归谷在路演平台打造上跨越最新的一步。有助于优质项目与投资机构进行对接,搭建海外科技、资本、人才和文化交流的平台。


今年以来广州开发区的政策利好重重,年初发布了四个“黄金10条”吸引科技企业落户,5月份发布了人才和知识产权“美玉10条”招才引智,最近又发布了“风投10条”,将设立100亿元的风投引导基金。 “海创路演会”正是在上述利好政策下,归谷科技园汇集海外最前沿科技的项目,主动与风投资本合作,为海外人才与科技项目提供全方位的服务,为科技项目成功融资及落地助力。

归谷科技园是广州开发区从美国硅谷引进的重点产业项目,也是中国海交会创新创业示范园区,以孵化、资本、人才、技术四大平台,致力为海外高层次人才回归国内打造“孵化+投资”的融创型产业园区,将重点打造创业板、中小板上市公司;园区举办首届“海创路演会”,标志着海外前沿科技项目展示及资本对接的海创路演会平台正式拉开帷幕。

圣何西智慧城市科技展见闻点滴

6月2日,在硅谷的科技交流重镇圣何西,市政府举办了一年一度的本地城市发展论坛及新技术展览会,开放给所有对投资城市发展有兴趣的人。不愧是高科技云集的硅谷,利用先进技术改善城市人们生活深受各市政部门重视,很多推广的项目都利用物联网技术(IoT),大力提倡节能环保。

硅谷科技咨询委员会(SVTC)自然也积极参与赞助,设立摊位介绍我们的科技交流服务项目。事实上,在大会手册的封面内页,就印有醒目的SVTC玛莎都葡萄庄园和归谷科技园的宣传告示,欢迎使用此处设施举办各种创新科技交流活动!林铭理事长还上台向大家致辞和作了介绍。

本届展会由矽谷科技华商会筹办,得到多方投资公司的赞助,附近几个城市的市长和郡主管都向与会者致意,欢迎各大小科研技术公司来本地,立足和推广他们的新技术、新成果。更多请观看丁丁电视台的报道

在展厅的周围一圈,排满了各公司的宣传摊位,中间摆有不少洽谈的桌椅。我们看到潮商会的醒目横幅,还有广州归谷科技园制作的宣传片在播放。

SVTC的摊位安排在进门左侧不远,旁边正是IBM的沃森人工智能系统:一个不到一米高的机器人站在桌子上,能够用英语和访客对话。沃森在展会上盼望能够开发服务老人和智障儿童的机会--他们是最需要人工智能帮助的群体。沃森的服务质量可靠,胜过人工陪伴。当然,沃森还能用在许多其它领域,据说能够操其它语言的沃森正在开发中,下面是一段介紹沃森的視頻。



我们硅谷科技协会的吴傢豪博士是智能交通的专家,不仅为本地的南三藩市建立了交通预测体系,还曾在中国广州成功完成一个很大的智能交通项目,这次上台演讲,介绍了车辆互联技术和自动驾驶的有关开发。从发展来看,我们硅谷有很大的潜力来组建和支持高效能的交通体系。

另一位大数据的专家,IBM的高级工程师和科学家凌棕博士也在大会演讲。他也是我们硅谷科技协会的专家之一,我们为他拍了照片,更为他感到骄傲。他的团队分析研究大数据,包括了在很多方面的应用,大多在有效利用材料和资源的方面。

SVTC办公室的工作人员还在展会现场遇到其他的科技界熟人,参观了他们所展示的项目。JustLight是一家台湾公司,来到硅谷推广节省能源、灯光冷气暖气的统一智能控制、利用太阳能的物联网综合技术。他们还生产销售的一种贴在门窗玻璃上的薄膜,能保持室内外温差,大大减少冷气或暖气的需要量。任何公司部门若採用他们所提供的技术,一定能节省很多钱!

有个新成立的中医大学也来了,宣传和倡导先进的癌症防治,为人义诊。他们的校长麻仲学是一位挺出名的中医肿瘤专家,提供的课程包括中医的食物疗法,周末上课。你若有兴趣,可以联络“福特中医大学”

还有一家建筑材料公司GigaCrete,似乎是印度裔经营的印度进口技术,为城市提供先进的“绿色”建筑材料砖。那些各种质色的砖拿在手上很轻,除了保温隔热,还能够防弹!盖造新房用它固然好,但旧房翻新也可以加这么一层,美观节能又增值!嘿,房地产投资和经纪人一定有兴趣。

如果您对科技交流活动有兴趣,并且有机会来硅谷,欢迎和我们联络!

O-R3:机器人警车+无人机

本文内容取自科技新闻网站Engagedge的报道,雅虎转载。



这是新加坡的RoboCop车,由初创公司Otsaw Digital制造,执行户外安防任务。它使用三维的LIDAR传感器来识别周围的人,知道是公司雇员还是不认识的外人入侵。若有人入侵就自动跟踪,并在遇到视线障碍时派出一架无人机从空中查看。它还会探测到哪个包是无人照管的,5分钟就会报警并进一步调查,看是不是什么危险物品。

据说客户可以租用一部O-R3,每个月的价钱比雇用4名安防人员的费用还便宜。英文全文按此阅读
