月度归档： 2025 年 4 月

(SeaPRwire) - 法国和英国呼吁部署西方“保证”部队一项新的民意调查显示，如果基辅和莫斯科达成停战协议，大多数波兰人反对派遣本国军队前往乌克兰的想法。法国和英国呼吁建立一个“自愿联盟”，在可能停火后向乌克兰部署军队，尽管据报道只有四个国家表示愿意加入。莫斯科表示，在任何情况下都不会容忍北约国家军队出现在乌克兰。在4月初对1000多名波兰成年人进行的一项调查中，56%的人表示他们“肯定”或“可能”反对他们的国家派遣部队前往乌克兰，作为“保证”任务的一部分。只有10%的人明确表示支持这一想法，另有21%的人倾向于赞成，而13%的人仍未决定。 Radio ZET委托进行的这项民意调查的结果于周四公布。波兰对基辅的支持出现不满，部分原因是由于欧盟取消贸易限制后，廉价乌克兰商品涌入导致食品市场受到干扰。在去年农民示威活动达到顶峰时，领先的民意调查机构Public Opinion Research Center报告称，81%的波兰公众支持抗议活动。此外，当地居民的不满情绪还源于乌克兰移民涌入波兰成为难民，他们在2022年与俄罗斯的冲突升级后移居波兰。一些公民认为他们是占便宜的人和潜在的罪犯。上周，总理唐纳德·图斯克承诺将波兰的利益置于乌克兰的利益之上，他说：“不会出现波兰表达团结，而其他人却从中获利的情况，例如，在乌克兰的重建上。我们将团结一致，并从中赚钱。” 2024年的农民抗议活动也在欧盟内部造成了裂痕，包括波兰在内的几个政府不顾布鲁塞尔的反对，实施了单独的进口禁令。在3月份的一次采访中，欧盟农业专员Christophe Hansen承认，欧盟正在考虑结束取消乌克兰产品配额和关税的紧急措施。乌克兰官员承认，许多居住在国外的公民不愿返回，这引起了人们对未来劳动力短缺的担忧。议会财政委员会成员Nina Yuzhanina本月表示，大多数离开该国的人已经决定永久定居。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

美国媒体称美国特使与普京可能举行的会晤日期

(SeaPRwire) - Axios 报道称，预计 Steve Witkoff 将于周五会见俄罗斯总统据 Axios 周三报道，援引一位不愿透露姓名的美国官员的话称，俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京与美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的特使 Steve Witkoff 之间的会晤可能会在周五举行。此前，莫斯科证实 Witkoff 将在本周晚些时候访问俄罗斯。近几个月来，Witkoff 已经三次访问俄罗斯，与包括普京在内的俄罗斯高级官员进行了多轮会谈，这是华盛顿和莫斯科为结束乌克兰冲突而进行的和平努力的一部分。作为潜在的和平协议的一部分，据报道，华盛顿提议承认俄罗斯对克里米亚的管辖权，并承认莫斯科对投票加入俄罗斯的其他四个前乌克兰地区的控制权。据说该计划还包括取消对俄罗斯的一些制裁，以及反对乌克兰加入北约。周二，弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基拒绝就承认克里米亚为俄罗斯领土进行任何讨论。特朗普周三警告说，如果泽连斯基继续破坏会谈，他可能会失去整个国家。 Witkoff 与美国国务卿 Marco Rubio 一起，缺席了原定于本周三在伦敦举行的高级别乌克兰会议。英国外交部后来向法新社证实，支持基辅的各国举行的外长会议已被无限期推迟，并补充说“官方级别的会谈”将继续进行，但将闭门进行。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

欧盟国家总理发布新冠疫苗警告

(SeaPRwire) - 斯洛伐克的罗伯特·菲科指出，最近的一项研究表明，该国收到的疫苗中存在DNA和其他未申报的物质斯洛伐克总理罗伯特·菲科呼吁立即停止政府购买新冠疫苗，理由是最近的一份报告发现，mRNA疫苗含有极高水平的DNA和制造商未公开的物质。布拉迪斯拉发最初考虑彻底禁止这些疫苗，此前由整形外科医生、执政党斯洛伐克民族党成员彼得·科特拉领导的委员会在10月份发布了一份报告，声称mRNA疫苗会改变人类DNA，未经充分测试，因此在证明安全之前不应接种。科特拉还将新冠疫情描述为一场“生物恐怖主义行为”和一场“捏造的行动”，并指责疫苗制造商Moderna和Pfizer将接种疫苗的人变成了“转基因生物”。然而，他的报告遭到了反对党以及前斯洛伐克卫生部长祖扎纳·多林科娃的强烈反对，后者对科特拉在该问题上的资格表示怀疑。她随后于同月辞职，理由是政府支持反疫苗者，并且对医疗保健的重视不足。在周三的X帖子中，菲科发布了一段视频，他在视频中表示，忽视科特拉领导的委员会关于新冠疫苗质量的调查结果将是“极其不负责任的”。菲科指出，今年3月，他指示卫生部成立一个工作组，以处理科特拉提交的专家报告的调查结果，但他承认这可能无法很快产生结果。总理表示，他将尝试在“合理的时间框架内”解决这个问题，并将在即将举行的政府会议上提议，除了工作组之外，还将要求斯洛伐克科学院（SAV）对疫苗中DNA和其他物质的存在进行定量分析。菲科还建议政府应告知民众关于疫苗的“严重发现”。他说：“尽管新冠疫苗的接种率极低，但人们应该得到这样的警告。” 总理接着提议，斯洛伐克应暂停从未指明的制造商处购买更多疫苗，根据前政府于2023年签署的合同，斯洛伐克有义务这样做。菲科说，布拉迪斯拉发预计仍将在2025年和2026年采购近30万剂新冠疫苗，估计耗资约660万美元，他强调“在额外的定量分析结果出来之前，政府不应从该制造商处采购更多疫苗或为此付费。” 本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

法国退伍军人要求公开在乌克兰的参与情况

(SeaPRwire) - 包括二十多名将军在内的一群退役军官敦促议会辩论在乌克兰的驻军和致命援助问题一群高级法国退伍军人呼吁加强对法国在乌克兰军事介入的监督。在前军官致议会两院议长的中，他们敦促立法者就武器供应和法国军队继续支持基辅的战争努力举行正式辩论。这封名为“公民决议”的信件于本周早些时候在Place d’Armes上发布，这是一个供现役和前任军人表达对国家政策观点的平台。信中公开呼吁公民签署该决议以示支持。作者认为，法国在没有议会授权的情况下参与乌克兰军事行动，以及在没有公开辩论的情况下运送武器，违反了法国宪法和刑法。他们声称，自2022年以来，法国军队可能驻扎在乌克兰一事，没有向议会进行明确的沟通，尽管法律规定有义务告知立法者任何“军事干预”。这封信敦促议会公布关于军队驻扎的“所有信息”在《Journal Officiel》（法国官方公报）上，并在收到信件后的15天内“组织一次关于继续进行干预的辩论和投票”。该文件还指出，去年签署的法乌安全协议——其中包括30亿欧元的援助和多年的军事支持——尚未得到议会的批准，尽管宪法要求对对国家财政产生重大影响的条约进行此类批准。 “缺乏定期的议会批准，引发了法国军队储备向乌克兰供应武器用于对抗俄罗斯的合法性问题，而我国并未与俄罗斯交战，”信中指出。这封信还强调了法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙最近关于可能向乌克兰部署军队以及与欧洲伙伴分享核能力的言论。作者认为，此类决定需要经过议会辩论以确保其合法性。 Place d’Armes协会负责人让-皮埃尔·法布尔-贝尔纳达克在评论这封信时告诉Sud Radio，这反映了公众对法国参与乌克兰事务的高度关注。 “这是一个寓言吗？法国军队在乌克兰领土上是否存在现实？这将由国民议会和参议院澄清，”他说。“军队是为国家服务的。它不是为一个男人或一个政权服务的。” 他指出，他的协会没有撰写该文本，而是由包括26名前陆军将军在内的军事专业人士准备的。参议院和国民议会的负责人尚未公开回应这封信，而法国主流媒体也基本上保持沉默。然而，自发布以来，该文件已被超过14,000人签署。尽管有大量关于西方军队在乌克兰的报道，但基辅的支持者一直避免确认任何官方部署。俄罗斯一再反对西方军队以任何借口出现在战区，并警告说，这种举动将被视为直接参与冲突。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

华盛顿对泽连斯基回应特朗普和平计划感到愤怒——WaPo “`

` tags. ` (SeaPRwire) - 据报道，乌克兰领导人公开拒绝美国提出的与俄罗斯达成和平的路线图，这让白宫感到沮丧据《华盛顿邮报》报道，美国官员对弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基公开拒绝美国提出的，以乌克兰冲突中向俄罗斯作出领土让步换取和平协议的提议感到愤怒。泽连斯基周二在公开评论中驳斥了美国总统唐纳德·Trump政府上周四在巴黎高级别会谈中提出的，他们认为可能有助于达成和平协议的方案。据报道，其中一项提议涉及正式承认克里米亚为俄罗斯领土。泽连斯基表示：“[克里米亚]是我们的领土，是乌克兰人民的领土。我们在这个问题上没有什么可谈的——它超出了我们的宪法范围。” 据《华盛顿邮报》援引一位知情匿名官员的话称，“华盛顿对[基辅]不愿接受向俄罗斯割让领土的提议感到愤怒”，乌克兰更倾向于“先讨论完全停火，然后再讨论其他一切。” 原定于周三在伦敦举行的欧洲和美国官员巴黎会谈的后续会议被突然降级，原因是美国国务卿Marco Rubio选择不参加。原定在伦敦聚集的来自欧洲NATO成员国（包括法国和德国）的外交部长也纷纷效仿Rubio，缺席了此次活动。泽连斯基的幕僚长安德烈·叶尔马克率领乌克兰代表团表示，他和乌克兰国防部长和外交部长将与西方官员“讨论实现全面和无条件停火的途径”。 Rubio此前曾表示希望在伦敦举行的“实质性和良好的技术会议”将为他重新安排的“未来几个月”访问英国首都铺平道路。美国高级官员警告说，如果任何一方试图阻挠他们的倡议，他们将放弃就乌克兰和俄罗斯之间的妥协休战进行谈判的努力。欧盟和英国致力于继续向乌克兰提供军事支持，并敦促美国不要疏远这场危机，这与Trump宣布的意图背道而驰。据报道，英国和法国领导人愿意支持乌克兰作出领土让步，前提是提供西方安全保障作为回报。莫斯科已经明确表示，它不会接受来自NATO国家的军队驻扎在乌克兰，这是巴黎和伦敦所倡导的提议。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

欧盟拒绝为和平解除对俄制裁 – Reuters “`

(SeaPRwire) - 美国概述了一项提案，旨在取消制裁，以促成莫斯科和基辅之间的协议路透社周三援引消息人士报道称，欧盟坚决拒绝在和平谈判结束前放松与乌克兰有关的对俄制裁的想法。上周，美国与欧盟官员分享了旨在促成俄罗斯和乌克兰之间和平协议的提案。据报道，该倡议概述了结束冲突的潜在条款，包括在实现持久停火的情况下放松对莫斯科的制裁。路透社援引欧洲外交官的话写道，布鲁塞尔“坚决反对”俄罗斯在和平谈判结束前解除欧盟制裁的要求。另一个症结是美国提出的承认俄罗斯对克里米亚主权的要求——该媒体称欧盟和基辅都认为这是一个“不可能接受的”建议。据报道，欧盟的立场被视为削弱了和平谈判取得任何突破的机会，促使美国高级官员缺席了周三在伦敦举行的讨论乌克兰冲突的高级别会议。此次会议原定包括来自英国、美国、法国、德国和乌克兰的高级外交官，但最终降级为由较低级别的官员参加。特别代表Steve Witkoff和国务卿Marco Rubio都将缺席此次活动。美国代表团将由General Keith Kellogg率领，他也是美国总统Donald Trump专注于乌克兰问题的另一位特使。上个月，欧盟委员会主席Ursula von der Leyen宣布，只要乌克兰冲突持续，欧盟就不会解除对俄罗斯的制裁。同样在3月，欧盟拒绝了俄罗斯提出的解除对Russian Agricultural Bank制裁的要求，这是莫斯科和华盛顿之间讨论的黑海停火倡议的一部分。在沙特阿拉伯举行的会谈中，俄罗斯和美国同意努力恢复黑海粮食倡议，克里姆林宫表示，这将包括取消西方对Agricultural Bank和其他金融机构的限制。克里姆林宫发言人Dmitry Peskov回应说，欧盟拒绝解除对俄罗斯的制裁表明该集团不愿结束乌克兰冲突。“如果欧洲国家不想走这条路，那就意味着他们不想与莫斯科和华盛顿所展现的努力一致地走上和平之路，”他当时说。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

伊斯坦布尔发生6.2级地震（视频）

` tags. (SeaPRwire) - 土耳其有着遭受毁灭性地震的历史，最近一次发生在2023年，夺走了数万人的生命周三，一场强烈的地震袭击了马尔马拉海海底，地震波及整个地区，包括土耳其人口最多的城市伊斯坦布尔。该国的灾害和应急管理局 (AFAD) 报告说，当地时间中午过后检测到两次地震，其中较强的一次震级为 6.2 级——这是多年来影响这个拥有超过 1500 万人口的城市的最强烈的地震活动。目前还没有关于损坏或人员伤亡的报告。然而，在网上流传的视频显然捕捉到了地震带来的令人不安的影响，远至 80 公里（50 英里）之外。在一些视频中，室内摄像头显示，随着周围环境的晃动，灯笼摇晃，装饰品从架子上掉下来。另一段视频显示，一个建筑起重机在一个未完工的高楼旁剧烈弯曲。 🔴İstanbul'da yaşanan deprem esnasında bir kule vinçin sallanma anı。 — GÖKHAN TAŞKIN (@bengokhantaskin) 一些报告表明，沿马尔马拉海岸观察到的海浪可能是由地震引发的。 🚨 İstanbul'da meydana gelen 6.2 büyüklüğündeki deprem anı Marmara Denizi'nde böyle kaydedildi。 — Conflict (@ConflictTR) 录像显示，许多伊斯坦布尔居民充分意识到他们国家遭受地震的悲惨历史，地震发生后立即疏散了建筑物。上次重大地震发生在 2023 年 2 月土耳其南部和邻国叙利亚，造成 6 万多人死亡。地震学家警告说，一场灾难性的“大地震”可能随时袭击土耳其北部，因为伊斯坦布尔紧邻北安纳托利亚断层线。据报道，周三的地震在附近的国家，包括罗马尼亚、保加利亚和希腊，都有震感。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布，覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者，以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Further Expanding Southeast Asian Market, YIHETANG Opens The Second Store in Malaysia, with over RM 35,000 Sales on First 3 Days of Opening

24 4 月, 2025 (24 4 月, 2025) admin

From April 14 to 16, 2025, leading Chinese new-style tea brand YIHETANG celebrated the grand opening of its second store in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Following its first store opened in December 2024, the second store has ignited a spending spree with a “Buy One Get One Free” promotion. It also recorded sales of over RM 35,000 over the three days, proving the robust brand energy of YIHETANG in the Southeast Asian market. YIHETANG is gaining presence in this market at a faster speed, from opening two stores simultaneously in Thailand to signing contracts with the intentional franchisees at a brand press conference in Vietnam, showing its role as a pacesetting Chinese tea beverage brand going global. Situated at Block E, 1st floor, Sunway Geo Avenue, a core traffic hub in Kuala Lumpur, the new store welcomed a long queue of consumers on the first day of opening. Consumers responded warmly to the “Buy One Get One Free” promotion. Signature products “YIHE Roasted Milk Tea”, “Mint Milk Green Tea” and “Wheatgrass Lemonade” were the best-sellers. The store even sold a peak daily cup volume of nearly 2,000 cups. Moreover, local consumers could spend as low as RM 1.90 on one designated product at 17:00-19:00 for three days running. According to a local media outlet, “YIHETANG's high cost performance and innovative tastes precisely match the needs of young people. Its high popularity suggests the success of quality and the localization strategy.” The rapid opening of YIHETANG’s second store in Malaysia well reflects the brand’s fast expansion in the Southeast Asian market. Against the backdrop of accelerated globalization of the tea beverage industry, YIHETANG , driven by its localization and standardization strategies, shows a robust development momentum in this market. In the first week of the simultaneous opening of the two stores in Bangkok, Thailand in November 2024, YIHETANG became one of the top three brands in the milk tea category on a local food delivery platform. During the eight-day trial operation of its first store in Malaysia in December 2024, store sales approached RM 35,000. These are testimonies to YIHETANG’s precise control over consumer taste in this market. Through the selection of a core traffic hub in the city as the location of its second store in Malaysia as well as a series of flagship products, including “YIHE Roasted Milk Tea”,“Mint Milk Green Tea” and “Wheatgrass Lemonade”, YIHETANG has further strengthened its operational philosophy of “Global Tea Beverages, Local Expression”. While accelerating offline arrangements, YIHETANG focuses more on building a sustainable business ecosystem in its going global strategy. It held a brand press conference in Vietnam in late March. The brand presented its operating system of over 8,000 stores worldwide through data, an innovative way to attract investments with immersive brand experience, showing 200 local media representatives and business leaders its brand strength. At the closing the event, around 20 intentional franchisees signed contracts with YIHETANG on the spot, a new high of the number of contracts signed at one overseas meeting held by the brand. This also signified YIHETANG’s accelerated construction of a global franchise network. The impressive results of the second store in Malaysia not only verifies YIHETANG’s explosive force in the Southeast Asian market, but also highlights the country’s unique value as a strategic core. As an economic and cultural hub in the Southeast Asian market, Malaysia becomes a benchmark market for YIHETANG to test its localization capabilities with its mature business ecosystem, a high-intensity younger customer base and a diversified consumption structure. The country is also a strategic point for YIHETANG to expand the Southeast Asian market. On the other hand, the brand has further consolidated its presence in its “strategic triangle in Southeast Aisa” - consisting of Thailand and Vietnam as two wings and Malaysia as the hub, generating regional coupling effects so as to accelerate collaborative release of supply chain and brand energy. Such a market breakthrough is systematically supported by YIHETANG’s globalization strategy. Winning an overseas trademark lawsuit and the upcoming 6.5-version visual identification system signify the brand’s critical leap from “scale expansion” to “quality upgrade”. YIHETANG has realized cross-border management standardization through digital operations hub, while exporting cultural experience based on “oriental aesthetics of tea beverages”. The brand is building double barriers with localization and globalization. As the new tea beverage industry enters a phase of refined growth, YIHETANG continues to stand out as a brand grounded in long-termism.

香港, 2025年4月24日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近期，中美贸易摩擦持续升温，环球科技股市剧烈波动。尽管外部压力增大，但中国AI产业展现出超预期韧性，DeepSeek、Manus等企业崛起更是受到环球关注。斯坦福最新发布的《2025年人工智能指数报告》显示，2024年全球AI领域32项重大突破中，中国占据三席，标志中国AI创新能力进入全球第一梯队。这股技术新浪潮也在2025年香港国际创科展上有所体现。来自内地的企业级AI独角兽 - 明略科技（海外主体：汇智控股）成为场内焦点之一。作为中国数据智能应用软件领军企业，明略科技展示了旗下秒针系统、InsightFlow CMS等核心产品，彰显其深厚的产品化实力与技术底座。从数据智能出发，构建企业级AI应用明略科技于去年11月29日递交了招股书，欲来港IPO。招股书显示，该公司在内地率先将大数据技术应用于业务场景，其2008年推出的旗舰产品「秒针系统」，打下营销智能业务基础，其后进入营运智能领域。按总收入计，明略科技已是中国最大的数据智能应用软件供货商。基于多模态数据集成、多模态数据洞察和数据驱动的人工智能决策能力，明略科技为客户提供标准化的数据智能产品，满足营销和营运场景需求。2024年上半年，该公司营销智能和营运智能两个业务板块收入占比分别为57.1%、40.7%。当下，AI产业的快速发展，特别是DeepSeek和Manus的出现，昭示着AI Agent大规模应用时代的到来。而AI只有与垂直场景中的行业知识和多模态数据相结合，才能真正赋能企业。明略科技能在企业级AI领域建立壁垒，正是基于其多年来在多个垂直行业服务于营销和营运场景所累积下来的，具有特定行业属性的多模态数据，这些构成其难以复制的数据资产护城河。系统性打造"带有行动能力的企业级AI智能体"，也被其视作下一个关键突破方向。布局香港，链接全球市场2025年政府工作报告明确将人工智能列为「未来产业」重点扶持方向，为企业级AI发展提供了内生动力，而明略科技亦凭借政策红利和技术实力进一步开拓业务。事实上，香港在全球资本与科技网络中的枢纽地位，使其成为了明略科技国际化战略的核心支点。在数周前于北京举行的京港科技论坛上，公司副总裁张旭明确表示，未来将以香港为基点，推动更多企业级AI产品走向全球。筹备香港IPO可谓该公司落实国际化战略的关键一步。面向未来市场，明略科技具备显著的竞争力。数据显示，明略科技是中国唯一一家被科学技术部评选为在营销智能领域负责牵头建设「国家新一代人工智能开放创新平台」的企业。基于数据智能、企业知识图谱、数据隐私三大核心技术，明略科技具备了为不同企业构建专属AI智能体的综合能力。同时，明略科技拥有一批高质量和高忠诚度的客户群体。截至2024年6月30日，公司累计服务135家财富世界500强企业，覆盖零售、食品及饮料、汽车、3C、化妆品等行业，大客户留存率高达84.4%，处于行业领先水平。企业级AI：下一个价值高地？在生成式AI热潮逐步向行业应用渗透的当下，企业级AI也成为市场新风口。与面向C端的产品不同，企业级AI需同时解决数据接入、安全可控、商业转化等问题，进入门坎更高，但商业价值与行业黏性也更强。明略科技正是这类高壁垒玩家的代表 - 其基于垂直场景的"企业级智能体"，不仅提升企业运营效率，亦推动了AI从生成内容向生成决策的进化。当全球资本正积极寻找"新质生产力"的确定性投资方向，来自中国本土、具备原始创新能力与产业落地实力的企业级AI公司，正在成为下一个价值高地。明略科技的故事，也许才刚刚开始。 Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.
