Important requirements to consider when choosing your Team Leader:

  • The main Aliyun account requires a Chinese phone number
  • verified Alibaba account is strongly recommended
  • Each RAM account will preferably also require a Chinese phone number

⏰ Deadline
 Please make sure your team has identified a Team Leader and started the account setup by Wednesday, the 7th.
 This is required to ensure timely access to the Alibaba AI tools.

Please refer to the attached video for step-by-step instructions.
