Neo-Infrastructure Construction or NIC, is a term coined in contrast with infrastructure. The later, having been playing a crucial role in national economy development, refers to construction projects of railway, highway, airport, water conservancy facilities, and etc. However, these traditional endeavors can not meet the current social demands, giving birth to a new initiative, NIC. It is new types of infrastructure marked by the 5th generation wireless systems (5G), artificial intelligence(AI), industrial internet, internet of things (IoT). Essentially, it is digitized infrastructure, i.e., the information infrastructure that supports the transformation of traditional industries to networking, digitization and intelligentization.
