SCIO press conference on preparations for The World Games 2025 Chengdu

Hong Kong Bauhinia Magazine:

TWG features many sports events that integrate intelligent technology. Could you tell us more about how this edition of the Games will leverage technology and promote sustainability? Thank you.

Wang Fengchao:

Thanks for your question. I'll take it. We've maintained an unwavering focus on technology empowerment and green, low-carbon development in every aspect of organizing this event. Coordinated efforts across event operations, urban planning and technological innovation have enabled us to implement greener, more digital and more intelligent approaches in key areas including event organization, venue construction and service delivery.

In terms of technology empowerment, we released TWG 2025 Chengdu Technology Empowerment Guidelines and established a supporting action framework. The framework features 14 specific measures focused on targeting key areas, including venue construction and operation, event logistics, citizen engagement and commercialization of outcomes. Based on the technological requirements for hosting, participating in and watching the Games, we collected more than 230 tech products from universities, research institutes and companies, compiling them into the Technology Empowerment Product Manual for the Chengdu World Games. Through a series of events such as the "Sci-Tech Sichuan - Smart Chengdu" robotics showcase and low-altitude economy special showcases, we've built a platform to support the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. These efforts have enabled the debut of low-altitude economic applications at TWG 2025 Chengdu, including a drone torch relay, aerial couriers and aerial livestream studios. Additionally, 25 robotic products are expected to be deployed across six major scenarios, including torch relay demonstrations, smart guided tours and sports presentations, further enhancing the spectator experience.

In terms of green development, we released TWG 2025 Chengdu Green and Low-Carbon Event Action Guide and established a green and low-carbon action framework. The framework outlines nine actions and 26 specific measures centered on low-carbon energy, venues and transportation. We've also hosted the "Green Intelligence Integration for a Sustainable World Games" series of green and low-carbon supply-demand matching activities, establishing a collaborative platform connecting government and businesses. The initiative encourages companies to support the green and low-carbon goals of the Games by showcasing eco-friendly products and donating carbon credits and quotas, thereby helping to reduce the event's carbon emissions. Additionally, we launched the "Low-Carbon World Games" section on our official online platform and created a database of enterprises donating carbon credits. The initiative promotes low-carbon applications such as green electricity, sustainable transportation and low-carbon venue construction methods. Throughout the entire process, we've made comprehensive efforts to conduct carbon inventory, verification and carbon neutrality assessments, with the goal of hosting the first carbon-neutral World Games. Thank you.
