From December 12 to 14, 2025, the Global Developers Pioneer Conference was held in Shanghai, during which Pudong New Area unveiled a groundbreaking policy to support AI innovation and entrepreneurship. The policy includes the full-scale launch of the Zhangjiang AI Innovation Town and a comprehensive "Ten-in-One" Dream Policy Package, offering benefits such as up to 300,000 yuan in free computing power, free workspaces, and talent apartments. The new policy aims to "add 1,000 AI enterprises within three years and achieve an industrial scale exceeding 250 billion yuan," highlighting the critical role of AI talent supply in policy implementation. Badou Academy, specializing in AI talent cultivation, has aligned its curriculum with Pudong's AI industry demands.
The policy's core objective of "adding 1,000 AI enterprises" signals explosive growth in talent demand across the entire chain from R&D to commercialization. Measures like computing power support and entrepreneurial incentives pave the way for AI innovation and industrial application, requiring both high-end R&D talent and practical, application-oriented professionals. Badou Academy's curriculum, built on long-term insights into AI trends, addresses the most pressing technical gaps in policy implementation.
In natural language processing (NLP), the academy offers a comprehensive learning path from foundational techniques like word segmentation and syntactic analysis to advanced topics such as pre-trained language models and multimodal fusion. Key modules focus on industry-relevant tasks like text classification, information extraction, and dialogue systems, alongside cutting-edge technologies like few-shot learning and explainability. Practical tools like Hugging Face Transformers and SpaCy are integrated, ensuring alignment with Pudong's AI enterprises in areas like intelligent customer service and text analysis.
For large-scale model technology, the curriculum covers Transformer architecture, pre-training and fine-tuning, and Mixture of Experts (MoE), with in-depth analysis of model compression, acceleration, and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF). As Pudong's AI firms explore large-model applications, professionals skilled in model development and optimization will be crucial for policy execution.
In the emerging field of AI agents, Badou Academy's courses encompass AI agent architecture, multi-agent systems (Agentic AI), and workflows, emphasizing practical techniques like retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and function calling. These modules prepare talent for Pudong's AI enterprises focusing on cutting-edge R&D.
Computer vision (CV) courses are equally industry-aligned, spanning foundational techniques like image denoising and edge detection, object detection and segmentation algorithms like R-CNN and YOLO, to applications such as object tracking and 3D reconstruction. Advanced topics like generative adversarial networks (GANs) and multimodal fusion, combined with data annotation tools and model deployment training, equip graduates for roles in smart manufacturing and CV applications in Pudong.
A standout feature of Badou Academy's curriculum is its practical orientation, matching Pudong's demand for immediate policy impact. Hands-on projects, derived from real enterprise cases, cover text classification, efficient fine-tuning of large models (PEFT), RAG-based Q&A systems, agent development, and ChatBI analytics. The "theory + practice" approach ensures seamless transition from learning to application, eliminating the gap between talent training and industry needs.
Badou Academy's strengths lie in deep industry integration. Its corporate background and early in-house training experience ensure course designs meet real-world demands. The curriculum stays abreast of industry advancements, aligning with Pudong's AI application pace. Partnerships with over 200 enterprises, including Pudong-based AI firms, create direct talent pipelines.
Teaching services feature a 6:1 mentor-to-student ratio, with round-the-clock support, including holidays. The faculty comprises active tech experts from leading firms, blending theoretical knowledge with practical project experience—ideal for Pudong's need for "plug-and-play" talent. A lifelong learning resource library addresses AI's rapid evolution, ensuring sustained alignment with Pudong's long-term talent requirements.
Pudong's new AI policy injects vitality into regional development, with talent supply as the linchpin for success. Badou Academy's curriculum and training model precisely respond to local AI industry needs, bridging the gap between talent cultivation and enterprise demands through technical coverage, practical training, and industry collaboration. This approach not only supports Pudong's AI growth but also offers a replicable model for AI education institutions to align with regional industrial needs.
