【Xiao

Correspondent】
The 2026 Second Annual Gala and Annual Banquet
of the AIDI,
American International Development & Investment Association
was grandly held in New York City. Entrepreneurs,
industry leaders, chapter presidents, investors, and
distinguished guests from the fields of real estate
development, investment, construction, finance,
technology, international trade, AI smart home
systems, and robotics gathered together to witness
another major milestone in the rapid expansion of
the AIDI global platform.
As a U.S.-registered 501(c)(3) international
non-profit organization, AIDI has experienced
remarkable growth within just one year and has
established more than 116 city chapters worldwide,
connecting entrepreneurs, investors, and
professionals across the globe. The organization has
become widely recognized as the international
“Hundred Cities Association.”
This year’s conference featured high-level
roundtable forums focusing on key topics including
global trade and the materials industry, commercial
real estate trends, diversified global investment
strategies, AI-powered smart homes, and robotics
technologies. Discussions among leading
entrepreneurs and professionals were lively and
insightful, fully demonstrating AIDI’s growing
influence as a global platform for resource
integration and international cooperation.
The atmosphere throughout the event was both grand
and energetic, as business leaders and
representatives from multiple countries and regions
gathered in New York for this important
international occasion. Prior to the official
opening, congratulatory videos from overseas chapter
presidents and U.S. political leaders were
continuously displayed on the main screen,
generating repeated applause from attendees. The
roundtable discussions were also livestreamed
globally via Zoom, further expanding the
international reach and influence of the conference.
The gala was professionally hosted in both Chinese
and English by Robert Song and Diane Cheng. Their
seamless bilingual presentation, elegant stage
presence, and excellent coordination brought a truly
international standard to the event. Their
professionalism during the presidential transition
ceremony, guest presentations, and panel discussions
received widespread praise from attendees.
One of the most significant moments of the evening
was the 2026 AIDI Presidential Transition Ceremony.
Founding Chairman Andy Jiang delivered opening
remarks reflecting on AIDI’s journey from its
original vision to today’s international platform
spanning 116 global city chapters. Newly elected
Global President Bentley Zhao officially assumed
leadership and delivered his inaugural speech,
outlining future plans to further expand AIDI’s role
in international real estate development,
technological innovation, AI industry integration,
and global resource collaboration.
U.S. Congresswoman Grace Meng, Congressman Thomas
Suozzi, and New York State Assembly Member Lester
Chang were present to witness the important
transition ceremony, highlighting the prestige and
social influence of the event.
Chairman of the Board Eddie Ni, Chief Supervisor
Eric Sun, and other core leadership members
introduced AIDI’s executive leadership team, global
chapter presidents, and New York chapter
representatives. Appointment certificates, trophies,
and commendations were presented during a formal
recognition ceremony. Representatives from the
United States, China, Canada, Chile, Cambodia,
Vietnam, Honduras, and other regions appeared
together on stage, further demonstrating the global
cohesion and international influence of AIDI’s
“Hundred Cities” platform.
The conference also featured a dedicated business
exhibition area showcasing industries such as smart
home technologies, modular construction, window
manufacturing, robotics, electrical systems, and
real estate development. The exhibition booths
attracted strong interest from entrepreneurs and
investors seeking international collaboration
opportunities.
Notably, the gala banquet itself reflected an
exceptionally high standard of hospitality. The
organizers carefully prepared a luxurious dinner
featuring premium dishes including lobster and lamb
chops, all of which were praised by guests for both
quality and presentation. Many attendees described
the event as “a truly grand international
gathering.” At the same time, the raffle segment
elevated the atmosphere even further, with prizes
including international round-trip airline tickets
and high-end home appliances, generating waves of
applause and excitement throughout the ballroom.
The event also included congratulatory video
messages from U.S. elected officials and overseas
chapter presidents, sponsor presentations, and
corporate introductions. Major partners including
Midea, Air China, IPE Innovative Elevator, New
Empire Group, and Windfall Group actively
participated, adding significant business networking
and partnership opportunities to the conference.
Mr. Ji Xiaohua, Founder and President of Wall Street
Television USA and a renowned international affairs
commentator, highly praised the event, stating that
the AIDI Second Annual Gala was not only a major
industry gathering, but also an important
international convergence of global Chinese
entrepreneurs, developers, investors, and innovators
in technology and AI.
Mr. Ji noted that the establishment of 116 global
chapters demonstrates that AIDI has already formed
the foundation of a truly international platform.
The leadership transition, he emphasized, marks the
organization’s advancement into a more
institutionalized, internationalized, and
professional stage of development.
He further stated that amid today’s rapidly evolving
global economic landscape and accelerating AI-driven
industrial transformation, AIDI has successfully
built an important bridge connecting real estate,
finance, technology, and international cooperation.
If the organization continues to uphold its mission
of “connecting resources, fostering collaboration,
promoting development, and serving society,” it will
undoubtedly play an increasingly influential role in
China-U.S. economic exchanges, international real
estate investment, AI technology applications, and
global industrial cooperation.
The conference concluded successfully with
enthusiastic applause and a grand group photo
featuring guests from around the world, officially
opening a new chapter in AIDI’s global development
journey.
