- Meta Data Limited (NYSE:AIU) operates a K-12 after-school education platform focused on mathematics training for young children, FasTrack English services, one-to-one personalized tutoring, and specialized examination preparation programs including question analysis and mistake correction in the People's Republic of China and internationally. The company offers Artificial Intelligent Education (AIE) smart training systems incorporating virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technologies; Artificial Intelligent Universe (AIU) infrastructure-as-a-service (IAAS) for metaverse operators featuring cloud and edge computing for rendering and virtual world enhancement; smart ID card services for campuses; and technical support such as simulation teaching modules, 3D modules, virtual reality modules, digital services, project inspection, and customer acceptance for smart education providers. Originally founded in 2007 as OneSmart International Education Group Limited and headquartered in Sha Tin, Hong Kong, with prior operations based in Shanghai, China, the company rebranded to Meta Data Limited in April 2022 amid a strategic pivot from subject-based tutoring restricted by China's Double Reduction Policy toward AI-enhanced education and metaverse technologies targeting overseas markets and non-China students. In August 2024, the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands ordered the company's winding-up into official liquidation under the supervision of joint official liquidators from PwC, prompting the New York Stock Exchange to suspend trading in its American depositary shares on August 13, 2024, and commence delisting proceedings due to insolvency and trading restrictions requiring court validation for share transactions.
