The 1st Nanjing Tech Week, which opened on the 26th, brought together a large 
number of technologies, experts, entrepreneurial projects and technology 
products, which have attracted worldwide attention, and Nanjing's "Innovative 
Temperament" has also attracted a lot of attention.

Aggregate global innovation resources

Five Nobel laureates, nearly 180 Chinese and foreign academicians, more than 
500 high-end "black technology", and innovative alliance establishments of 
service organizations from 22 countries and regions...

At present, there are more than 30,000 foreigners and more than 8,000 
foreign-funded enterprises in Nanjing. What attracts more and more 
international talents and projects in Nanjing?

"Nanjing's innovative atmosphere and relaxed environment have attracted me." 
Yang Meijia, professor of Massachusetts State University, studied abroad for 
many years. In August 2018, he participated in the establishment of the Jiangsu 
Alot Medicine Research Institute in Nanjing Jiangning High-tech Park. Less than 
one year, he applied for 3 invention patents, hatched 7 companies, and is 
currently developing 12 bio-new drugs.

"Respecting the laws of science and cherishing scientific research talents, 
Nanjing has provided us with strong support in all aspects and a relaxed and 
friendly entrepreneurial environment," Yang Meijia said.

Nanjing has continued to promote the "Talents in Nanjing Plan", "Starting 
Career in Nanjing" Program and "345" Overseas High-level Talents Introduction 
Program for young college students, and has increasingly become one of the 
first choices for talents in science and technology innovation at home and 
abroad. At present, 5 Nobel laureates and 86 Chinese and foreign academicians 
have established businesses in Nanjing.

Crack the key problem of "transformation"

Nanjing has 53 colleges and universities, more than 800,000 college students, 
and more than 80 academicians in Ning. The number of college students, the 
number of graduate students and the number of academicians are the top 3 in the 
country. But for a long time before, Nanjing failed to turn rich science and 
education resources into innovative advantages of development.

The key to the problem is transformation. Nanjing implemented the "Two Landings 
and One Integration" project of the implementation of scientific and 
technological achievements projects, the launch of new research and development 
institutions, and the integration of school and government, and tried to solve 
the problem of the "last mile" of the transformation of achievements.

In June 2018, Nanjing University of Technology, Jiangning Development Zone 
Management Committee and Jiangsu Deyitong Environmental Protection Co., Ltd. 
jointly initiated the establishment of Nanjing Jiekefeng Environmental 
Protection Technology and Equipment Research Institute. "Many university 
researches are guided by patents and papers. We carry out market-oriented 
applied research and strive to turn the achievements of colleges and 
universities into products." Dean Xu Haitao said that the institute has hatched 
23 technology-based enterprises and contracted contracts with the total amount 
of about 25 million yuan. 

Building an "Innovative City"

The first set of radio vacuum tubes, the first automatic lathe, and the first 
pulse time-space tube...

In the 70 years since the founding of New China, this ancient capital of the 
Six Dynasties, which created many "Firsts" in China, has once again opened a 
new journey of innovation and development.

"The construction of Innovative City has greatly stimulated the new vitality of 
Nanjing's development." The relevant person in charge of Nanjing said that 
Nanjing has been committed to building the most stringent cities for 
intellectual property protection, further optimizing the business environment, 
and striving to improve Nanjing's innovation first place.

100 laws of business environment, 30 laws of private economy, and no-contact 
approval...

The "Nanjing Speed" of government service has become a new footnote for the 
city's innovative temperament. The TSMC project, which invested 3 billion 
dollars in the Jiangbei New Area of Nanjing, took only 20 months from the start 
of the project to the commissioning. The new R&D institution "Nanda 
Electronics" has got millions of yuan in loans by credit, and has completed a 
new business registration with only one time.

The recently released 17th report on China's urban competitiveness shows that 
Nanjing has entered the top 10 in terms of comprehensive economic 
competitiveness, livable competitiveness, sustainable competitiveness, and 
economy competitiveness. Nanjing ranked 12th among the top 50 global research 
cities in Nature magazine.

With the integration of the Yangtze River Delta as a national strategy, major 
opportunities such as the "Belt and Road" and the Yangtze River Economic Belt 
come for Nanjing, and the development of the ancient city of Nanjing is full of 
possibilities. Last year, the number of high-tech enterprises in Nanjing 
increased by 1,282, a year-on-year increase of 70%; the number of 
newly-employed college students was 340,000, a year-on-year increase of 60%.
