November 29, 2020, the signing ceremony of strategic cooperation between KITO and Wuhan University of Technology and the unveiling of KITO-Wuhan University of Technology New Material Technology Research Institute for Architectural Ceramics was held in KITO headquarters, Foshan. He Qian, the chairman of KITO Group and senior executive of the company, Dr. Wu Chaozhong, the vice president of Wuhan University of Technology, Dr. Wu Jianfeng, the professor of the National Key Laboratory of Silicate Building Materials of Wuhan University of Technology and some government officials get together to participate in this grand signing ceremony.

Since the 13th Five-Year Plan, the country has taken "innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing" as a new development concept, and planned the goal of "2025 Key industries to achieve an intelligent transformation". The deepening of cooperation between industry, university and research will promote the transformation of traditional Chinese manufacturing from energy to green and from labor-intensive to intelligent. It is a key force for the development of intelligent manufacturing. Wuhan University of Technology, as a concentration of high-level talents in China's building materials construction industry, has accumulated a large number of high-quality resources, international talents and scientific and technological strength. As a leading enterprise in the ceramic industry, KITO quickly turns to the new green building materials and green SLAB  "two wings" on the basis of strengthening the core business of building ceramics.  

‘Enterprises need to develop new kinetic energy to achieve transformation and upgrading and high-quality development.’ said by He Qian, the chairman of KITO. He also believes that new technology, new materials and new applications will create a brand-new industry. This all-round industrial chain change needs the top-level design support of governments at all levels, and the scientific and technological empowerment of high-level scientific research institutions such as Wuhan University of Technology. Only through the deep integration of industry and university, industry can truly transform and upgrade and move forward. This strategic contract with Wuhan University of Technology will build a talent channel for schools and enterprises to promote the industrial development of assembly buildings and buildings.
