In 2013, the center was re-named as teaching demonstration center for innovative economy and smart management, which was later recognized as a teaching demonstrator center by the Department of Education of Beijing. The center has a mission to integrate multiple disciplines, combine teaching and research, promote innovation and entrepreneurship, and support practical learning.

All the systems utilize research and teaching resources from multiple disciplines and are open to the overall university.
