The scorching heat of June in Hong Kong couldn’t stop the handsome and young Dr. Jia Jiaya, a professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, who is known as “Prince Jia” by overseas tech professionals. Since receiving the first strategic investment from the Hong Kong government on June 12th, Dr. Jia’s unconventional thinking and years of planning have finally paid off.
Leading the SMI Group, Dr. Jia has expanded the social and commercial applications of AI after upgrading from industrial computing power to AI intelligence.
The logic behind the consumption habits in the new retail market serves as the starting point for AI intelligence. Despite facing opposition, Dr. Jia firmly believes that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is an excellent testing ground.
Dr. Jia’s moniker, “Prince Jia,” is derived from the cartoon symbolism of the Lion King, signifying that he is a strategist and leader behind the scenes. His SMI Group continues to push forward the commercialization of AI, unobscured by the halo of AI technology.
As the founder, Dr. Jia embodies the spirit of Elon Musk in Asia, having eliminated objections two years ago and directly overseeing the production and design of shared devices and corresponding software systems.
Dr. Jia has always adhered to the first principles and pursued a technological dream similar to Elon Musk’s, leading the SMI Group to the forefront of unicorn technology innovation in Asia.
It is expected that the new retail market in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region will unleash more application areas with the assistance of AI, coupled with the development and flow of tourists in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
