On September 17, 2026, Zhang Ya, Secretary-General of the Alumni Association of the School of Information Science and Technology of East China University of Science and Technology (ECUST), and Liu Ning, Secretary-General of the Alumni Association of the School and Council Member of the Shanghai Alumni Association, visited Grouphorse Group. Zhang Li, President of Grouphorse Group, and Jiang Feng, Assistant to the President, warmly welcomed the guests. The two sides held discussions on AI data annotation and international organization internship and study programs in the field of AI annotation, among other topics.
Currently, the artificial intelligence industry has entered a stage of development driven by high-quality data as a core force. Against the backdrop of China’s accelerated efforts to cultivate new quality productive forces, industry–education integration and international talent development are playing an increasingly important role. Grouphorse has long focused on two core business lines, AI data services and international talent development. Leveraging its experience serving international organizations and its university collaboration network, the Group has developed distinctive comprehensive capabilities.
In terms of services for international organizations, Grouphorse is an official translation service provider to the United Nations, the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and nearly 40 other international organizations. Grouphorse won the United Nations Headquarters translation services projects in both 2019 and 2026, and has hosted high-level conferences on artificial intelligence at the United Nations Headquarters on multiple occasions. In 2025, Grouphorse joined The United Nations University Global Artificial Intelligence Network (UNU Global AI Network). Through long-term service in multilateral diplomacy and global governance, the Group has accumulated extensive experience in cross-cultural communication, multilingual delivery, and high-compliance quality control, providing valuable resource support for international organization internship and study programs in the field of AI annotation.
In terms of university collaboration, Grouphorse has established formal partnerships with more than 200 universities nationwide, including over 50 Double First-Class universities, and has jointly established data annotation industry schools, intelligent data governance research centers, and industry–education integration practice bases with multiple universities. In May 2026, Grouphorse initiated the establishment of the Industry–Education Integration Consortium for Data Annotation and Intelligent Data Governance and serves as its Secretariat, upgrading individual university-enterprise cooperation into a systematic and ecosystem-based platform for talent development and data supply. East China University of Science and Technology is among the universities that have established a formal partnership with Grouphorse.
During the meeting, the two sides held in-depth discussions on AI data annotation-related business and international talent development in the field of AI annotation, among other topics, and reached consensus on multiple points.
This visit further enhanced mutual understanding between the Alumni Association of the School of Information Science and Technology of East China University of Science and Technology and Grouphorse Group, laying a foundation for continued interaction in related fields. Looking ahead, Grouphorse will continue to leverage its comprehensive strengths in international organization resources, its university collaboration network, and high-quality data services, working with universities and stakeholders from all sectors to jointly advance the deep integration of talent development and industry practices in the era of artificial intelligence.
