Extenics was established from zero-- no subject traditional teams, research institution, academic society, magazines or specialty. Therefore, it is difficult to construct research team and cultivation of innovative talents for this subject. In recent twenty years, Extenics research team developed from scratch,from one people to a subject team. The development of Extenics has come through a hard time..

（1） Constructing research base, Extension Engineering Research Institute, Guangdong University of Technology, headed by Extenics’initiator, professor Cai Wen.

（2） Founding Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence Extension Engineering professional committee (whose predecessor is Guangdong matter element research center and Chinese Modern Designing Method Research Committee matter element analysis institute ) and organizing a large number of extension researchers.

（3） Developing personnel training.We had organized 18 sessions of extension researchers’seminars and cultivated 51 key members in 18 provinces and cities. We also organized many seminars of Extenics in China mainland and Taiwan. Courses of Extenics have already been given in many universities in China.
