Where AI concentrates

Ranked by what share of the district's own registrations this industry takes, not by raw count, so this is not simply a list of the largest cities. Nationally the figure is 2.7%. Districts with fewer than 250 companies are excluded, because a small base makes a share meaningless.

About this data

Industry is chosen by the company from the government's own list when it registers. It is self-selected, not audited, and a company may pick more than one. Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. How we counted.
