Behind these intelligent upgrades lies EPWK's continuous investment in technological innovation and its strong commitment to user experience. Through data-driven decision support, employers can receive optimized suggestions, aiding efficient decision-making and better fulfilling their creative needs.
This intelligent service model not only improves the platform's operational efficiency but also lays a solid foundation for EPWK future global development.
Driving Platform Upgrade from "Transaction" to "Monetization," Building a Global Creative Ecosystem
Huang Guohua, founder and CEO of EPWK, stated that IPO marks a significant milestone in the company's development and a brand new starting point for serving users. In the future, EPWK will adopt "converging global creativity, empowering Chinese manufacturing" as its new mission, driving the platform's upgrade from a "transaction platform" to a "monetization platform," and building a global creative ecosystem that spans design, manufacturing, and distribution.
With the introduction of DeepSeek intelligent solutions, EPWK's intelligent service capabilities have been further enhanced. The company will continue to foster deep integration between creativity and business through technological innovation and ecosystem development, creating greater value for SME and creative talents worldwide.
According to the prospectus, EPWK plans to expand its platform service categories, exploring new service areas beyond software development and creative design. It aims to establish a flagship store system for high-quality service providers, enhancing user and market share through brand marketing and traffic growth. The company also plans to strengthen its technological R&D by increasing investment, developing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) tools for both sellers and buyers on the platform, and upgrading EPWK's personalized task recommendation engine to provide online digital business solutions.
Through these strategic initiatives, EPWK will not only continue to lead the development of the domestic creative economy but also contribute significantly to the globalization of the digital economy.
