IT (Information Technology) / This appears in a documet relating to platforms for a major Chinese tech company (primarily for cloud-based services, including software, gaming, innovative products, telecoms and much more)

Chinese term or phrase: 智慧泛互工作室

The specific term at issue here is "泛互," which I'm assuming likely refers to either "云泛互云," "泛互联网"or something of that nature--however, nothing concrete at this point. Unfortunately, the Chinese definitions were unhelpful, and any referenceable English translations of a similar nature were unreliable gibberish. Any advice from professional translators specializing in IT would be greatly appreciated. Due to the unrealistically tight deadline for a 30k-40k word project for which I was given only four days to complete and deliver, I had very little time to do the required research for the term in question; in particular, with respect to how I should interpret "泛" in this case as there are a number of possibilities. Any thoughts?

Explanation:
Many references indicate that "泛互" is abbreviation of "泛互联网" that is a term used in IT industry.
However, it says "泛互联网" actually equals to "物联网" （Internet of Thins, IoT）.
So, it seems we can start from this point to interpret the term "智慧泛互工作室"。
Hope this helps.

Explanation:
Similar to the comment of @Xiaodong Du.
I also found the definition of “泛互” as the abbr. of “泛互联网”, which is a name of IoT in earlier times.
However another definition can also be found: “泛在（互联）网”.It is similar to, but not equal to, IoT. This is translated as "Ubiquitous Network".
Anyway “泛互” in the former definition is more possible in a common introductory essay.

In addition, “泛” in Chinese generally means "sth. that covers a large area/region, but cannot reach the deep". It can be roughly translated as the prefix "pan-".

Studios engaged in smart pan-Internet and/or pan-Internet cloud

Explanation:
泛 is a prefix --- pan-, literally, 泛互 refers to 泛互联网, its equivalent is 物联网 (IoT）, since the writer didn't use 物联网（IoT）, there must be some reasons for it. 泛互云 is based on 泛互联网. But here I think 泛互联网 has broader applicability than 物联网（IoT）. 泛互 here refers to both 泛互联网 and 泛互云. I found 泛互云 only on Tencent page https://cloud.tencent.com/developer/team/pan-internet-cloudn...
pan-Internet or pan-network can hardly be seen in Google as they emerged only recently, but I saw "pan-European cloud" in the link below. This implies it could be Ok to use the prefix "pan-"
