About This Program
This program responds to global AI trends that have moved beyond the pilot stage and are now focused on building structured AI ecosystems. It addresses the growing need to bridge digital and AI gaps and establish a safe and trustworthy foundational environment, so that all members of society can benefit from AI technologies in an equitable manner.
Through the Digital and AI Transformation (DX/AX) program, BGI serves as an accelerator that translates the potential of digital and AI into tangible impact. As a global impact hub that brings together fragmented efforts, it supports digital and AI transformation for sustainable and inclusive social development.
