From December 10–12, 2025, Intel hosted the “Chip Commitment · Intelligent Future — 2025 Intel CTE & Partner Year-End Private Summit” in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China.

This high-level, invite-only event brought together Intel’s core management team and executives from top intelligent hardware companies worldwide. The summit focused on reviewing 2025 collaboration achievements, discussing technological breakthroughs, and outlining the roadmap for desktop AI supercomputing and local AI computing in 2026.

As a long-term strategic partner, GMKtec actively participated, sharing insights on AI mini PCs, on-device AI solutions, and next-generation desktop AI supercomputing.

Driving Local AI Computing on Desktop Platforms

The rapid rise of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) has shifted demand toward secure, low-latency, and high-performance local AI computing.
Desktop AI solutions are increasingly critical for:

• Creative workloads

• Enterprise AI applications

• Research and development tasks

By enabling on-device AI inference, GMKtec’s AI mini PCs reduce reliance on cloud computing, improve data privacy, and lower operational costs.
