Other blocks of vacant land and factory buildings have recently attracted high-level talents to set up enterprises in Qianzhou, including experts from the national Thousand Talents Program and PhD holders returned from Germany. The site will be established into an incubator for high-level talents and seven high-tech enterprises have decided to locate here with an estimated total annual output value of over 300 million yuan.
"We are quite prudent about introducing projects for every piece of land which has been vacated," said Sun Weibing, who is responsible for investment promotion of Qianzhou subdistrict. He added that due to the strong pressure traditional industries in Qianzhou face in transformation and upgrading, it is necessary to force them in this respect through well-planned invitations to invest.
The industrial structure of Qianzhou has been undergoing changes as a result of the intensified efforts made in the core areas of modern industries, such as scientific and technological talents and capital operations.
Recently, the newly upgraded Cloud Platform of Qianzhou Digital Assets version 2.0 was officially launched to help the township industry to transform toward high-quality development.
Through the cloud platform, Chen Yujie, a local entrepreneur, managed to refine and produce the natural sweetener stevioside together with the Institute of Microbiology of Chinese Academy of Sciences. This enabled Chen to shift from the machinery manufacturing industry to the bio-health sector. The product has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and will enter trial production in August.
Wang Ninghai, deputy director of the Qianzhou Sub-district Office, said that high-quality township industrial development requires concerted efforts from enterprises, industries and governments and all must strive to achieve coordinated development in the real economy, technological innovation and attract high-end talents.
