huawei was rated as the most promising no. 1, and the financial metaverse became a new highlight
looking at the entire "2024 hurun china metaverse potential enterprise list", huawei was rated "most potential no. 1" for the first time, alibaba, baidu, china telecom, and china mobile entered the "most potential top 5", tencent, netease, jd.com, iflytek, and zte entered the "most potential top 10".
rupert hoogewerf, chairman and chief researcher of hurun report, said, "this year marks the third year that we have released the hurun report china metaverse potential enterprise list. the evaluation criteria are basically the same as the previous two years. first, we will evaluate the relevance of the company's main business to the core industries of the metaverse. in addition, we pay special attention to the company's initiatives in the metaverse, especially the number and quality of its initiatives in the metaverse in the past year ending june 30 this year. finally, the company must be worth more than us$1 billion."
why set the value at least $1 billion? hurun explained, "because the real metaverse may take a long time to realize, during which time, enterprises need to have sufficient profitability and viability, and enterprise value is a good measurement indicator. $1 billion can be regarded as the total profit that investors believe the enterprise can generate in the next 10 years."
"over the past three years, the number of ecological application companies has been increasing year by year, and the market demand for metaverse ecological applications has been growing. education, industry, finance, culture and tourism, medical care and other fields have explored the application scenarios of the metaverse. the overall proportion of terminal product and network technology companies has slightly decreased. these companies may face challenges such as rapid technological iteration and large r&d investment, which has led to the exit of many companies." hurun added, "this year's list research has added some related industries, the most important of which is the financial metaverse. in the past year, china's major financial institutions, especially banks such as icbc, bank of china, and industrial bank, have made efforts in the metaverse and launched a variety of applications such as virtual digital humans, digital twin technology, vr metaverse virtual business halls, metaverse accounts, metaverse contract systems, and business processing methods in virtual scenarios."
he mentioned, "this year, there are as many as 58 new companies on the list, which can be divided into two categories. the first category is the financial metaverse that we have newly included in the survey, mainly some of the most influential banks in china, which have recently launched metaverse-related financial scenario solutions, such as industrial and commercial bank of china, bank of china, industrial bank, etc.; the second category is important companies that have added metaverse initiatives this year, such as pinduoduo's launch of digital human anchors and byd's launch of virtual exhibition halls."
hurun believes that "in the next three years, china's metaverse will develop rapidly. first, it is due to technological progress. with the continuous maturity and application of key technologies such as 5g, artificial intelligence, blockchain, cloud computing, virtual reality vr, augmented reality ar, etc., the technical foundation required for the metaverse is becoming increasingly solid; second, it is market demand. whether it is game entertainment, social interaction, online education, remote office or digital marketing, the metaverse can provide new experiences and models; the other is policy support. the chinese government attaches great importance to the development of the metaverse industry and has issued a series of relevant policy documents to guide and regulate its development."
hurun also emphasized, "first, entering the metaverse is not an optional question, but a must-answer question. the metaverse is not just a technical concept, but also a brand-new social form and economic model. in a few decades, the metaverse will definitely be deeply embedded in the real world, so all companies must prepare early. second, the construction of the metaverse is not a sprint race, but an endurance race. the metaverse involves the formulation of technical standards, the construction of platforms, the optimization of user experience, and the improvement of laws and regulations. these are not achieved overnight, but need to be achieved through continuous iteration and optimization. the development of the metaverse is not a single technology, but a coordinated evolution among technology clusters."
