In August 2025, the Ministry of Commerce of China, alongside seven other national departments, released a groundbreaking guideline — "Opinions on Vigorously Developing Digital Consumption and Co-Creating a Better Life in the Digital Era." This document isn’t just a policy roadmap — it’s a declaration that the next phase of China’s economic growth will be driven by intelligent connectivity, immersive experiences, and digital innovation.
At the heart of this transformation lies one key enabler: technology that bridges the virtual and the physical world. And few technologies embody that bridge as effectively as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) — drones that bring data, vision, and automation into the fabric of daily life.
As a global innovator in UAV systems, MMC (MicroMultiCopter) is more than a drone manufacturer; it is a builder of digital infrastructure for the real world — transforming industries, redefining experiences, and helping societies adapt to the future of smart consumption.
From Smart Products to Smart Experiences
The government’s call to “expand digital product consumption” directly points to the evolution from gadgets to ecosystems — from owning devices to living in intelligent environments.
AI-powered drones, such as MMC’s Skylle series and L1 light show drones, represent precisely this shift. They are not just flying tools but data-driven experience creators — capable of supporting industries from logistics and agriculture to entertainment and emergency response.
When consumers enjoy a drone light show above a city skyline, they are not merely spectators; they are participants in a digital experience economy, where creativity meets technology, and culture meets computation.
MMC’s L1 drone system, already adopted by cultural and tourism operators worldwide, reflects this philosophy — making the sky a new stage for digital art and storytelling.
"AI + Consumption": MMC’s Role in Enabling Intelligent Scenarios
One of the most forward-looking aspects of the new policy is the emphasis on “AI + consumption” — integrating artificial intelligence into cultural, educational, medical, and lifestyle services.
In this context, MMC’s industrial UAVs and AI-driven platforms enable cities, enterprises, and service providers to build smart, data-rich, and automated experiences:
- In smart tourism, drones can capture immersive 4K aerial content, creating metaverse-ready experiences.
- In smart logistics, systems like the Skylle II delivery drone automate last-mile transport and support the “intelligent retail + unmanned delivery” model encouraged by the government.
- In smart inspection, thermal UAVs such as MMC X8T enhance infrastructure safety and energy efficiency, aligning perfectly with the national vision for sustainability and digital monitoring.
Every one of these scenarios reflects the same transformation — digital consumption becomes an active, intelligent service, not a passive product exchange.
Culture, Creativity, and the Sky as a Digital Canvas
The policy’s third pillar — “innovate digital content consumption” — aims to merge technology with culture through metaverse experiences, ultra-HD media, and immersive storytelling.
For MMC, this is not an abstract idea; it’s an everyday reality.
With hundreds of MMC L1 light show drones already illuminating major events across Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, the brand is helping redefine what cultural expression means in the digital age.
These light shows are artificial intelligence in motion — autonomous drones forming synchronized visuals that blend art, data, and national identity. They bring the “digital culture strategy” to life, turning every skyline into a canvas of shared emotion.
This is precisely the kind of digital content innovation envisioned in China’s policy — one that transforms traditional cultural consumption into interactive, co-created experiences.
Unmanned Logistics: Accelerating Smart Commerce
Under the section on optimizing logistics systems, the policy encourages “orderly development of drone transport and terminal delivery services.”
For years, MMC has been pioneering in this space. Its Skylle series — featuring up to 15 kg payload and 100-minute endurance — provides a robust foundation for drone-based logistics, emergency delivery, and rural connectivity.
As cities and rural regions alike digitize their service ecosystems, unmanned logistics is no longer futuristic — it is becoming an essential public service layer.
From smart retail to e-commerce distribution, MMC’s UAV platforms ensure that digital consumption isn’t limited by geography — they help every community participate in the new economy of convenience and automation.
Empowering SMEs and Digital Entrepreneurs
Another important directive of the policy is to empower small and medium enterprises through digital transformation.
This aligns deeply with MMC’s ecosystem approach: providing modular UAV platforms, open APIs, and data-driven services that enable startups, research institutions, and solution integrators to build on top of MMC hardware.
By lowering the barrier to entry for drone-based applications — whether in agriculture, inspection, logistics, or creative media — MMC acts as a digital enabler for the next generation of innovators.
In other words, MMC is not just selling drones; it is cultivating a platform for digital entrepreneurship — one that echoes the national call to build “high-quality, differentiated digital consumption ecosystems.”
Building the Infrastructure of the Digital Lifestyle
The digital consumption ecosystem cannot thrive without infrastructure: data, logistics, and intelligent systems.
This is where MMC’s technology philosophy — “connect, automate, and empower” — becomes most relevant.
Every MMC UAV, from the L1 light show drone to the X8T thermal model, contributes to this infrastructure by generating spatial data, imagery, and analytics that enhance urban management, safety, and creativity.
As the policy encourages the construction of “smart streets, smart stores, and smart logistics hubs,” drones become the eyes and wings of digital cities — extending human perception and action into new dimensions.
MMC envisions a future where digital consumption is not only online but airborne — where drones help humans interact with their environment more intelligently, sustainably, and beautifully.
A New Chapter in Digital Civilization
When China’s eight ministries collectively emphasize digital consumption as the “key to quality growth,” they are speaking not just of technology, but of a civilizational upgrade.
This is a call for every enterprise to integrate intelligence, sustainability, and creativity into its DNA.
At MMC, that mission is already underway.
From UAV-based logistics networks to aerial digital art, the company is shaping how people consume, connect, and create in the digital era.
The future of consumption isn’t confined to screens or stores —
it’s in the sky, the data, and the imagination that connects them.
And MMC is proud to help build that future — one intelligent flight at a time.
