Building the world's first "Technology + Governance" dual-wheel drive platform to promote implementable governance standards

HONG KONG, July 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The AI for Human International Foundation (the "Foundation") was officially established on July 9, 2025 with the goal of building the world's first "Technology + Governance" dual-wheel drive platform in order to unite the strengths of all sectors to solve the ethical, regulatory and governance issues brought about by the rapid development of artificial intelligence, and to build a new paradigm for the governance and development of artificial intelligence.

The AI for Human International Foundation was officially established on July 9, 2025, by Mr. Nicholas Chan Hiu-fung, Hong Kong Deputy to the National People's Congress (from left), Ms. Sun Mingjun, President of the Zhongguancun Intelligent Artificial Intelligence Research Institute and Mr. Fung Yui Kong, Founder of Pangaea Connectivity Technology Limited.

The Foundation is co-founded by Mr. Nicholas Chan Hiu-fung, Hong Kong Deputy to the National People's Congress, Ms. Sun Mingjun, President of the Zhongguancun Intelligent Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, and Mr. Fung Yui Kong, Founder of Pangaea Connectivity Technology Limited (Stock Code: 1473). The Foundation is a non-profit organization established for the purpose of integrating resources, introducing talents, and sharing technologies through marketization. Facing the global demand for AI technologies, the Foundation built the world's first "technology + governance" dual-wheel drive platform, solving the ethical, regulatory, and governance issues brought about by the rapid development of AI, and formulating corresponding laws and policies to promote the advancement of AI technologies, so as to establish an open, safe, cooperative and shared international platform to promote the healthy development of global AI technologies.

Functions and missions of the Foundation:

To conduct in-depth research on the governance aspects of Artificial Intelligence in terms of data security, privacy protection and generative AI regulation, to propose effective governance and development solutions, and to actively publish reports to enhance the influence of the industry. To organize Salon meetings around AI intellectual property to strengthen the exchange of AI intellectual property and increase the awareness of protection. To launch industry surveys and research, form a working group composed of senior experts, draft industry standards and technical specifications, widely solicit opinions, and continuously improve standards and regulatory frameworks. To construct an international exchange platform, organize scene matching, resource matching, etc., and host international conferences to promote the globalization of technology, information sharing and experience exchange, and to strengthen the cohesion of the industry. To establish a talent exchange and training program to attract and cultivate highly skilled personnel to provide human resources assurance for the development of artificial intelligence. Ms. Sun Mingjun, Chairman of the Foundation and President of the Zhongguancun Intelligent Artificial Intelligence Research Institute said, "The purpose of the Foundation is to address the global demand for AI technology, and then to bridge the gap between supply and demand for AI, such as governance, ethics, and global legal compliance, as well as technology, and how it can be deeply connected in different contexts. Based on the background of this industry, we initiated the establishment of the Foundation to realize the work of global artificial intelligence technology promotion."

Mr. Nicholas Chan Hiu-fung, Honorary Founding Chairman of the Foundation and Hong Kong Deputy to the National People's Congress, said, "In this era of artificial intelligence, we are all trying to explore the way forward. We are now in the era of Industry 4.0. In the supply chain and daily life, we are also exploring how to work more efficiently and economically. Artificial intelligence is very close and relevant to our lives. It requires the collaboration of many parties, including a sound policy environment, good laws and regulations, as well as talents, resources, technology, creativity and capital, etc. Hong Kong is endowed with these unique conditions. Hong Kong is a place where talents converge. When students and scientific research talents are learning and applying, it is very important to have a channel for the transformation of scientific research into application scenarios."

Regarding the development potential of AI in the application landscape, Mr. Fung Yui Kong, Vice Chairman of the Foundation and Founder of Pangaea Connectivity Technology Limited, pointed out, "Artificial intelligence has developed particularly rapidly in the past two to three years due to the large-scale construction of data centers both in China and in the United States. Computing speed is the key in the development process. Power is of course the most important thing, and data speed also needs to be improved because computing is fast and furious. We believe that there are not many scenarios that apply to AI at the day-to-day level. We believe that there will be a wider range of applications in the next few years, and this application level will require a lot of computing power in the information center. We set up the Foundation at this time because we see that there is enormous room for development in the future".

Regarding the Foundation's future focus, President Sun said, "In the second half of this year, the Foundation will plan to release case reports on artificial intelligence + environmental protection governance and practices, as well as reports on artificial intelligence + healthcare governance and practices, etc. Through artificial intelligence, some practical cases such as environmental protection, sewage treatment and air treatment, etc., can be fundamentally resolved. We hope to first use Hong Kong as a base, facing the world such as countries of the BRICS and the Belt and Road Initiative, etc., to fully promote the practice to the world, and initially set up a liaison mechanism to establish the artificial intelligence industry standards and evaluation platform, so that the whole society can build confidence in artificial intelligence to help this technology put into practice."
