I welcome tourists to this western province of China to appreciate the charm of this rising travel destination.”

 

Besides its natural beauty, Guizhou has been attracting big investments from government and enterprise to enhance the region's big data industry development and has seen the growth of a hot computing field that involves analyzing massive amounts of data collected by Internet companies to reveal emerging trends. San Francisco's reputation of being a global hub for Internet technology sets the tone for a burgeoning relationship between the two cities as Guizhou's big data and technology industry is steadily on the rise.
