How Tech is Boosting Cultural Innovation

At the recent forum on Inter-Civilization Exchanges and Mutual Learning: Cultural Inheritance and Innovation, CGTN sat down with He Xinghuang, Deputy Editor-in-Chief and General Manager of Tencent's Culture and Content Business Department, to explore the vital role of technology in breathing new life into cultural traditions.

He highlighted how digital tools are transforming the way we archive, share, and interact with heritage. From AI-powered translation and preservation to virtual reality experiences that transport global audiences into historic sites, technology is amplifying the reach and relevance of traditions that span centuries.

Across G20 nations, we’re seeing a surge in digital museums, interactive storytelling platforms, and collaborative projects that blend art, history, and innovation. Entrepreneurs and creators are leveraging these tools to launch immersive exhibitions, host virtual performances, and forge new cultural dialogues.

These advances are not just reshaping how audiences engage with culture—they’re fueling new business models and creative economies. As He noted, forging partnerships between tech firms, cultural institutions, and independent artists will be key to sustaining this momentum and ensuring that heritage remains both accessible and evolving.

For young global citizens, entrepreneurs, and digital nomads, the intersection of tech and culture offers endless possibilities. Whether you’re exploring a virtual tour of an ancient temple or using an app that brings folklore to life, technology is opening doors to shared creativity and cross-cultural understanding.
