On that day, the exclusive on-campus small and medium-sized entrepreneurial project, the Autonomous Boat Operation Plan, will also announce its winners. 

This project will use two autonomous passenger boats, introduced by X³ Co-Venture, as its entrepreneurial base, with student teams taking charge of planning, operating, and managing the boats. Through this real-world entrepreneurial project, students will gain valuable hands-on experience, manage a million RMB project, rapidly develop core professional skills, and deepen their understanding of entrepreneurship and management.

The participating student teams will present their strategies for operating and managing the unmanned boats, showcasing unique business models, creative operational ideas, and management strategies.
