Do you remember the list of 20 major application scenarios for the metaverse announced by Shanghai at the end of last year? This “hero list” has attracted more than 800 technology and solution providers to compete for the list, and has achieved phased construction results. Recently, the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization released the first batch of construction results of major metaverse application scenarios in Shanghai, involving 10 scenarios covering five areas: intelligent manufacturing, medical and health, cultural tourism, business operations, and classroom education. This means that in Shanghai, the metaverse has moved from concept to reality, and the integration of industry supply and demand has entered the stage of practical operation.

In the field of intelligent manufacturing, the “Baosteel Quanzhen Metaverse Hot Rolling Factory” scenario was announced by Baoshan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., and Shanghai Baosoft Software Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Zhigonghui Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. competed for the list. It has completed the visualization of the entire process of the hot rolling factory, focusing on “quality, energy consumption, management, and cost”, and realized the intelligentization of equipment and management;

In the field of medical and health, Shanghai Ruijin Hospital proposed the “Metaverse Smart Hospital Application” scenario, which was provided by Shanghai Linkong Network Technology Co., Ltd. and others. This solution uses metaverse technology to reconstruct and empower physical space, creating a smart hospital space to enhance patient experience, doctor perception, and management control;

In the field of business operations, the “MetaCity 1933” scenario was announced by Shanghai Laochangfang Creative Industry Management Co., Ltd., and 11 companies including Shanghai World Collection Metata Cultural Technology Co., Ltd. jointly competed for the list. By using various digital technologies such as augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence, they created a new space for immersive smart tourism experiences, activating the vitality of old buildings;

In the field of cultural tourism, the “Grand Yu Garden Metaverse Super Scenario” released by Yu Garden Cultural Business Group has attracted 4 companies including Baidu and Alipay to provide solutions together.

From the announcement of the first batch of results, the “hero list” of major metaverse application scenarios in Shanghai has fulfilled the commitment of “heroes need no introduction”. The list includes relevant enterprises, universities, and research institutes engaged in metaverse technology innovation and application services, and reflects the cooperation and joint efforts of different enterprises, with large companies leading small companies to solve problems together.

The metaverse is one of the four new tracks in Shanghai. According to the “Action Plan for Cultivating the Metaverse New Track in Shanghai (2022-2025)” released in July last year, by 2025, Shanghai will launch more than 50 demonstration scenarios, 100 benchmark products and services, and the scale of the metaverse-related industries in Shanghai will reach 350 billion yuan, driving the scale of the city’s software and information services industry to exceed 1.5 trillion yuan and the scale of the electronic information manufacturing industry to exceed 550 billion yuan.
