Models, Data @ ICML
Research, Model Labs & Capital Across China and the World
As frontier AI becomes more global and more accessible, the next edge is shifting beyond model size alone — toward open model ecosystems, high-quality data, real-world feedback loops, evaluation, agents, multimodal systems, robotics, and domain-specific deployment.
During ICML Seoul, Creek Stone, Gaorong Ventures, and leaders from major AI model companies are bringing together a curated group of researchers, model lab builders, technical founders, and investors from China and around the world.
The goal is to create a high-signal room for people thinking seriously about how AI research turns into real models, real products, and real companies.
China has become one of the fastest-moving AI ecosystems globally — not only in model development, but also in open-weight models, product iteration, engineering talent, and real-world AI deployment. This gathering is designed to connect that momentum with the global ICML research community.
Who to expect:
Researchers from ICML and leading AI labs
Builders and leaders from major Chinese and global model companies
Technical founders working on agents, multimodal AI, infra, robotics, evals, data, and applied AI
Tier-1 venture investors from China and global markets
Operators and ecosystem builders connecting research, product, and capital
Expect a curated room, informal conversations, and a sharp discussion around where frontier AI is actually being built next.
在 ICML Seoul 期间，Creek Stone、高榕创投以及来自主要 AI 模型公司的负责人，将共同邀请一批来自中国与全球的研究者、模型公司建设者、技术创始人和投资人，参与一场高质量的闭门交流。
中国已经成为全球发展最快的 AI 生态之一。不仅体现在模型研发上，也体现在开源模型、产品迭代、工程人才和真实场景部署上。本次活动希望把这种动能与 ICML 的全球研究社区连接起来。
你会见到：
来自 ICML 和领先 AI 实验室的研究者
来自中国及全球主要模型公司的建设者和负责人
正在做 Agent、多模态 AI、AI Infra、机器人、评测、数据和应用 AI 的技术创始人
来自中国及全球市场的一线风险投资机构
连接研究、产品与资本的生态参与者
期待一个经过筛选的房间、轻松但高质量的交流，以及关于前沿 AI 下一步到底在哪里被构建的真实讨论。
