Ruanyun Edai Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: RYET) has expanded the scope of its three-party memorandum of understanding with the Nanchang Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) and Intersect Holding. The updated agreement now explicitly covers the joint creation of research topics, technical routes, deliverables, budgets, and schedules.

The MOU brings NIST into a broader Saudi-China platform strategy that connects vocational education, university research, technology development, institutional investment, and commercialization. Intersect will continue to facilitate connections with Umm Al-Qura University and other Saudi institutions.

Strategic Framework

The agreement establishes a framework connecting vocational education, university research, and technology development between China and Saudi Arabia. The MOU outlines distinct roles for each party to develop a pipeline for research and commercialization projects.

NIST is expected to organize academic resources, faculty, and students. RYET will coordinate technology and project implementation. Intersect will secure research funding and manage market execution in Saudi Arabia.

Revenue Strategy

RYET plans to integrate these capabilities under its Formind strategy to deploy products and services in Saudi Arabia and other international markets. The company has set a strategic objective to increase non-China revenue contribution to more than 50% of annual revenue by the end of 2027.

This target is stated as a strategic objective only and does not constitute financial guidance. The company noted there can be no assurance that this objective will be achieved on the expected timeline.

What the Numbers Show

The strategic shift toward international markets represents a significant dependency on successful cross-border execution. With the goal of deriving over half its revenue from outside China within two years, the company’s future growth profile hinges on converting this preliminary MOU into definitive, funded project agreements rather than relying on one-off market entries.

Ruanyun Edai Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: RYET) outlined its long-term strategy to expand YeeZo, its university-focused artificial intelligence-generated content (AIGC) education platform, to up to 200 institutions. The company aims to build a scalable network that equips students with practical production skills while strengthening industry pathways.

Strategic Vision

Management’s strategy is to transform campuses into talent and production nodes. By integrating academic institutions directly into the production workflow, Ruanyun Edai Technology seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical learning and practical application in the digital content sector. This model helps students build demonstrable portfolios and assists universities in creating industry-relevant programs.

Expansion Timeline and Revenue Potential

RYET introduced YeeZo in May 2026 as an AIGC workflow and orchestration platform for storyboarding, content planning, and multi-model production. In August 2026, the company launched the YeeZo University AI Content Training Program, extending the platform into applied university learning.

The long-term ambition involves a phased expansion built around anchor launches, commercial validation, and network scaling. If fully implemented over a 36-month development period, management’s target operating case contemplates cumulative revenue potential of up to approximately US$405 million. This scenario is based on illustrative cohort economics, including assumed cohort size, per-trainee revenue, repeat participation, and delivery capacity.

The company emphasized that this scenario is an aspirational management planning case only. It does not represent financial guidance, contracted revenue, backlog, or recognized revenue. Realization depends on university contracting, learner participation, financing, regulatory compliance, and market demand.

Initial Deployment

Through Jiangxi Ruanyun Technology Co., Ltd., its consolidated variable interest entity in China, RYET has entered into an initial technical-services agreement for the first university deployment. The order covers multimodal AI creation services for approximately 350 users initially. The company intends to use this deployment to refine a repeatable campus launch model combining onboarding, applied AIGC workflows, supervised production, and evidence of student capability before expanding further.

Four Connected Outcomes

The 200-university plan is organized around four key outcomes:

• University capability: A current, project-based AIGC program that evolves with models and production practice.
• Student capability: Portfolio evidence, production roles, teamwork, and confidence to pursue new ventures.
• Industry capacity: A distributed network of supervised teams able to respond to structured content briefs.
• Economic formation: Potential creation of new studios, services, intellectual property, jobs, and local digital output around participating campuses.

Maggie Fu, Chief Executive Officer of RYET, stated that YeeZo’s purpose is to turn talent into repeatable capability, potentially leading to new studios, ventures, jobs, and measurable economic output.
