The Advent of the Digital Economy Link to heading
In 2020, the unexpected outbreak of the global pandemic forced people to change many of their daily habits. Financial services rapidly moved online, strengthening the connection between technology and finance in the process.
Under the current conditions, it is essential to accelerate the advancement of the digital economy. This helps improve GDP dynamics and fully tap into the potential of the “dual circulation” principle.
The Original Intention of Zhugeio Link to heading
In the age of data, amidst bloodless business battles, companies need a strategist like Zhuge Kongming to help them unlock market secrets from raw data.
But a “data strategist” does more than just solve mathematical problems. They need data logic and, more importantly, business acumen. While strategizing behind the scenes, they help companies achieve decisive victories.
“Embody the spirit of Zhuge, perform the task of analysis, vitalize data, and serve the users.”

Reflections on 2020 Link to heading
2020 was an extraordinary year. The pandemic accelerated transformations across all industries and intensified the shift to online business.
Facing increasingly complex data, some have compared it to “the new oil,” implying that just as crude oil can be processed and refined into gasoline, kerosene, asphalt, and diesel for various purposes.
How to transform different forms of data into “valuable services” is the defining question of our time.
In an era where data drives the pursuit of fine-grained operations, Zhugeio aims to be a service provider. With business at our core, we are dedicated to serving every client, helping them drive scientific decision-making through data analysis to achieve rapid growth.
