On March 1, 2026, as spring tides surged in Barcelona, a computing power feast commenced on the global stage. As a bellwether for the global communications and digital technology sectors, MWC26 Barcelona is about to open, focusing on innovative breakthroughs and industrial transformation in AI-era computing infrastructure. Against this backdrop, the Global Computing Consortium (GCC) officially launched its series of events at MWC Barcelona. The first major event—the AIDC Elite Gathering, hosted by Huawei IT Consulting & System Integration (ITS) and co-organized by GCC—was successfully completed. Under the theme "AIDC Ready for All Intelligence," the gathering brought together core forces from the global intelligent computing field, serving as a vital starting point for GCC to connect with global elites and jointly explore the development path of the intelligent computing industry.
Positioned as a high-end exchange platform for global intelligent computing leaders, the AIDC Elite Gathering, with its precise thematic focus and high-quality resource aggregation, attracted over 50 elites from global operators, government and enterprise sectors, internet companies, and analyst institutions. Moving beyond mere technical discussions, the event focused on the practical pain points and definitive pathways for next-generation AI data center construction, establishing an efficient communication bridge for the collaborative development of the global AIDC industry and highlighting the industry's shared concern for the high-quality development of intelligent computing infrastructure.
As a co-organizer, GCC was deeply involved in the event, infusing it with core intellectual strength. During the gathering, Professor Jin Hai, Chairman of GCC, delivered a welcome address, welcoming the distinguished guests and expressing gratitude to the host and partners. The address noted that computing power is the core productive force of the digital economy, and the standardization, intelligentization, and green construction of AIDC are critical to the quality of global digital economy development. With the mission of promoting the collaborative development of the computing power industry, GCC's participation in the AIDC Elite Gathering represents an important practice of fulfilling this mission and building a cross-domain dialogue platform. The address also introduced the GCC-Open AI Infra Community, which brings together global leading forces focused on formulating AIDC hardware specifications and constructing next-generation computing centers, and has already released the industry's first systematic technical blueprint, the "AIDC Infrastructure Specification." The address emphasized that AIDC construction must be grounded in regional needs and deepen collaboration, and that GCC is ready to join hands with global partners to build consensus, address pain points, promote the standardized development of the AIDC industry, and inject computing power momentum into the digital economy, concluding with best wishes for a successful event.
The successful holding of this AIDC Elite Gathering marks both a brilliant opening for GCC's series of events at MWC 2026 and lays a solid foundation for subsequent ecosystem building and standard implementation. As a collaborative platform for the global computing field, GCC will seize the opportunity presented by this event to continuously connect with global intelligent computing elites and disseminate industry consensus. It will work alongside global partners to establish close industrial chain links and jointly build an open, collaborative, and win-win global computing ecosystem.
