V. Other Information

[Policy Overlap and Comprehensive Services]

Building on the municipal government's No. 1 policy documents from 2018 to 2021, Nanjing High-Tech Zone (Qixia Park) provides enterprises with policies covering industry, technology, talent, and finance, with additional rewards for the settlement of artificial intelligence, biopharmaceuticals, unicorns, gazelles, and headquarters enterprises.

In 2020, Qixia Park further focused on marketization, improving the full-chain enterprise service system and building a "1+2+5" comprehensive service system. With "empowering enterprises" as the main line, the park established two platforms—an online big data service platform and an offline enterprise service center—and created five service brands: "Xingchuanghui," "Afternoon Tea," "Private Board Meeting," "Service Tour," and "Policy Hub," offering zero-distance, professional, and customized "store assistant" services. The park innovated its service model by releasing the "Zidong Living Room" service card and creating a "vitality map" to help enterprises connect with financing and land resources. It also launched the "Goods Express" activity brand to promote high-quality products and technologies, enhancing enterprise influence and service efficiency. Currently, the park has 53 financial service institutions, 33 registered funds, and a total fund scale of 7.5 billion yuan, broadening financing channels for enterprises. Additionally, the high-tech zone has participated in the establishment of six industrial funds with a total scale of 1.64 billion yuan, providing comprehensive support for enterprise development.

[International Integration and Innovation]

Qixia Park actively implemented the "Rooting Plan," attracting international innovation resources. It has visited Belgium, Germany, Finland, and Israel multiple times to explore international innovation resources, visiting 28 organizations, including Chinese embassies, government agencies, universities, and technology enterprises. It established "Overseas Collaborative Innovation Centers" in Belgium and Germany and signed seven cooperation agreements. In March 2021, the "Belgium Welcome Office Qixia Branch" was officially established in Qixia Park, further consolidating the deep links between Belgian enterprises and Nanjing, and promoting practical cooperation.

At the end of 2020, Qixia Park created the "Haizhi Bay·Zidong" International Talent Block. The block integrates resources from Qixia Administrative District, Nanjing Economic and Technological Development Zone, and Xianlin University Town, creating an "overseas-like" environment. It provides a "one-stop" panoramic service system for global high-level industrial talents and young overseas talents with master's degrees or above from world-class universities (research institutions), covering government affairs, settlement, innovation and entrepreneurship support, social networking, and life services, allowing overseas talents to "move in with a suitcase," "start businesses easily," and "develop rapidly."

[Superior Environment and Convenient Living]

Qixia Park is located at the southern foot of the beautiful Qixia Mountain, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a green coverage rate of 65% and the lowest PM2.5 levels in the city. Adjacent to Xianlin University Town, the park benefits from the intellectual, talent, and technical support of 200,000 students and faculty from 18 universities, including Nanjing University and Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine.

The park's transportation network is well-developed, connecting to Nanjing's "one-hour metropolitan circle" and rapidly radiating to Jiangsu and East China. Longtan Port, the Second and Fourth Yangtze River Bridges, highways, and railways form a closed loop for enterprise supply logistics. Metro Lines 1, 2, and 4, as well as the upcoming Lines 6 and 7, provide comprehensive public transportation coverage, ensuring convenient travel for employees.

Qixia Park has built comprehensive supporting facilities, including exhibition centers, conference centers, boutique hotels, employee canteens, talent apartments, and fitness centers, meeting the entertainment, dining, accommodation, and transportation needs of enterprises and employees without leaving the park.

Seizing the opportunities of Zidong's rise and the construction of China (Nanjing) Intelligence Valley, Qixia Park will deeply implement the "121" innovation-driven development strategy, focus on industrial development, build an innovation ecosystem, and shape new development advantages. It aims to create a hot spot for investment and a home for entrepreneurship, working with global technology elites and visionaries to share the beauty of nature and create a brilliant future together!
