Tips

register
Internet/business buzzword that exploded around 2017-2019. Literally 'to bestow' + 'capability'. Originally a calque of English 'empower', now everywhere in Chinese tech/PR/policy writing.
usage
Pattern: A / B 赋能 = 'A empowers B'. Often a vague catch-all in marketing decks - Chinese readers (like English readers seeing 'synergy') sometimes roll their eyes at it.
