Industry Events and Public Record
An industry event earns its place when it brings the right companies, technical experts, project teams and decision-makers around a real question. This archive records the events Solarbe helped convene and Cao Yu's documented work as a moderator, speaker and industry participant.

Why this has its own page
This is a working record, not an awards wall.
For an industry reader, the archive shows which meeting a view came from, what question was being discussed and when it was stated. For a company or institution, it shows whether Solarbe can frame an agenda, assemble the right participants, moderate a useful discussion and carry the outcome into reporting, research or a next conversation.
Solarbe's organizational role and Cao Yu's personal role are recorded separately. We publish only roles confirmed by a public source. Earlier posters, agendas, photographs and videos are being verified event by event rather than used to fill gaps with broad claims.

Moderating, speaking and participating
The current public archive covers verified records from 2019 to 2026. It is not presented as a complete chronology: older event materials are still being checked, and every addition requires a date, a specific role and a public source.
