Huo Xuewen emphasized that the university, a key institution supported by Beijing, has distinct strengths in information technology, defense, and industry. Guided by its "Double First-Class" initiative, it actively contributes to the capital's socio-economic development and national technological progress. As a bank bearing the name of Beijing, Bank of Beijing is committed to innovating education financial services. Since establishing ties with the university in 2009, the bank has deepened collaboration in areas like account settlement, IT infrastructure, faculty and student services, union support, and subsidiary assistance. Moving forward, both sides will enhance cooperation in payroll services for staff, student ID cards, and third-generation social security cards, leveraging full-lifecycle financial services to support high-quality education development.

He expressed hope that the strategic partnership would serve as a new starting point, leveraging policy, resource, and funding advantages. Initiatives like the joint laboratory, collaborative research on key technologies, and talent development programs aim to set a benchmark for university-bank synergy.
Next, Bank of Beijing will continue focusing on the "Five Key Areas of Finance," partnering with the university to explore a new integrated model of "finance + education + technology," jointly supporting the capital's socio-economic growth and contributing to China's education advancement.
