The theme of this year's competition is "Digital Intelligence Future, Because of You", sponsored by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., organized by Kunpeng Ecological Innovation Center, and jointly with China Software Industry Association, Green Computing Industry Alliance, China Computer Industry Block "Virtual Teaching and Research Section", "101 Project" Virtual Teaching and Research Section, Wuhan Optics Valley Super Computing Technology Co., Ltd., National Supercomputing Shenzhen Center, and CCF Wuhan Branch.
Compared with previous editions, the Kunpeng Application Innovation Competition 2023 has reached a new level in the dimensions of crowd coverage, professional fields, and participation rights, and further empowers developers to cultivate talents. For the first time, this competition set up a university competition and a scientific research competition independently, which are open to the developer groups of universities and scientific research institutions. Together with the enterprise competition, it will form a wider coverage at the level of developer groups. In order to continue to promote digital technology innovation, there are five major tracks in total around the three major events: industry application innovation track, HPC application innovation track, openEuler open source innovation track, openGauss open source innovation track, and confidential computing innovation track. The field of expertise can be further extended. At the regional level, it covers 16 regions including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, Hubei, Shaanxi, Guangxi, Tianjin, Guizhou, Gansu, Hunan, Fujian, and Heilongjiang.
Developer talents are the "spark" of the Kunpeng industry, which has irreplaceable significance and value for the development of the industrial ecology. As an important part of Kunpeng's industrial ecology, talent cultivation will inject a steady stream of impetus into industrial innovation and development. In order to encourage outstanding developers to join, the prize pool of this competition is as high as 10 million yuan.
