It should be said that Nanjing Jiangbei New District is the only national-level new district in Jiangsu Province. Our mother River Changjiang now divides Nanjing into two parts: Jiangbei and Jiangnan, and Nanjing has built a 2500-year history. The future of Nanjing's development and future development hopes to release. In the Jiangbei New District, of course, Jiangnan and Jiangbei are competing to develop together. The Jiangbei New District has an area of 2451 square kilometers. The area of light alone is not large. Everyone may not necessarily have a quantitative concept. It is larger than the current size of Shenzhen. The planned area is 788 square kilometers. Currently, the permanent population of the Jiangbei New District currently exceeds 1.7 million. According to the current growth rate, the net increase will be around 100,000 a year.
The future development direction of the Jiangbei New District is mainly to take the road of innovation and development, while the path of innovation and development is focused on coordinated development. The first is the coordinated development of domestic and foreign resources. The Jiangbei New District and Cambridge University have established innovation centers not long ago. In addition, Germany’s Frank Institute is also located in Jiangbei, and some other institutions including Berkeley’s laboratories also set up corresponding structures in Jiangbei. A group of foreign resources are gathered in the Jiangbei New District. The second synergistic words are domestic ones. How do innovation resources come to Jiangbei? No matter whether it is domestic Tsinghua University, Peking University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Fudan University, or domestic innovation resources are gradually entering the Jiangbei New District. The third is coordinated, the state approved Jiangbei New District. Because Jiangbei New District connects Suzhong and Subei, including the eastern part of Anhui and the upper and middle reaches of the Yangtze River. In this region, Jiangbei New District has achieved synergistic development with the entire surrounding area. The fourth one is our industrial chain and the surrounding area. With coordinated development, the Jiangbei New District is mainly high-end design, R&D, including technology service industry to drive peripheral industries. Development, this is our go the road of innovation.
In the second aspect, the future of industrial development in the Jiangbei New District will now focus on two cities and one center. The first is the 'chip city', which is mainly based on integrated circuits. The second area is 'genes'. The city is centered on life science and technology. The third is the financial center, which is mainly engaged in industrial integration. Both of these industries are capital-intensive industries and require a large amount of investment to support development. Today we are starting the semiconductor industry conference. , I will give a brief introduction to the situation on the chip.
In the past two years, the Jiangbei New District has also introduced excellent companies. As TSMC has already settled down in the Jiangbei New District, mass production is coming soon, and China’s Ziguang District is also located in the Jiangbei New District. In addition, we have built up these enterprises in recent years. There are a number of upstream design companies, including overseas ARM, creative (GUC) companies, etc. These companies have R&D institutes in Jiangbei New District. Domestic include Xunxun, including SMIC. , Including today's China Electronics, Jinmeng Technology, Huada Jiutian, and other design companies all have branches in Jiangbei New District. In addition, Jiangbei New District also has an integrated circuit In the service platform, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology specifically placed the first batch of the “core fire” plan in the Jiangbei New District. The purpose was to support the development of integrated circuit design platforms. This public service platform has also hosted some specialization at home and abroad for over a year. The academic conference also invited international masters to give lectures and seminars on integrated circuit development in the Jiangbei New District. In addition, some domestic experts also gave lectures and discussions in the Jiangbei New District. We also conducted academic exchanges at home and abroad through this platform. At the same time, we also trained a large number of innovations and provided services in integrated circuit design. We also held the China Semiconductor Symposium in the Jiangbei New District. This year is the second session of the National University Student Integrated Circuit. The competition, last year was 9+7, and 26 college students launched integrated circuit design competitions in Jiangbei New Area. This year the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Education jointly organized. In addition, we also attracted a large number of funds for IC design, including PCs, VCs, and other funds have gathered in the Jiangbei New District. The current IC fund for the entire Jiangbei New Area is nearly 100 billion yuan. Of course, the fund will invest in promising companies.
In addition, Jiangbei New District also held the National Semiconductor Annual Meeting. It was also held in the Jiangbei New District last year. It is still held in the Jiangbei New District this year. We also hope that the annual meeting of the semiconductor industry will last long in the Jiangbei New District and in Nanjing to promote Jiangbei. New District in the development of integrated circuit industry.
Finally, to introduce to you, the development of the integrated circuit industry in the Jiangbei New Area is not just about holding competitions. We have specifically issued relevant policies for IC industry concentration and technological development. This policy also revolves around the Jiangbei New District, including design companies, and the future in the Jiangbei New District. Some enterprises that set up factories, we all provide certain subsidies. In addition, we will give priority to the production enterprises in the Jiangbei New District, Nanjing area, the purpose is that high-end design companies in the Jiangbei New District can enjoy the best service as soon as possible. The shortest process ensures that your design results can be industrialized as soon as possible. This is the policy of IC in Jiangbei New District.
We are an innovative new area. For the IC industry chain, including ICs, we are expanding into new areas, including downstream companies that we are doing. For example, the Internet of Things companies also have a large number of mechanisms. The extended AI companies are also The Jiangbei New District is gathering. The Jiangbei New District has many policies to support the development of small and medium-sized enterprises. The purpose is to create an innovative ecology. At the beginning of this year, the Nanjing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government promulgated the “Nanjing Building a World Famous City of Innovation”, which specifically introduced the No. 1 document. The gold content of this No. 1 document is very high. I also hope that all the entrepreneurs and friends present here today are willing to go to Nanjing to develop. The friends from Jiangbei Development can learn about our No. 1 document, which fully embodies the Nanjing Municipal Committee. The government's support for innovation. To Jiangbei New District to innovate and start a business, we make the entrepreneurial culture, let more people come to Nanjing at the lowest cost, and come to Jiangbei to innovate. I would like to take this opportunity to report the situation in the Jiangbei New District to everyone. I’m not as good as everyone’s going to the Jiangbei New District. Take a look. The Jiangbei New District is Your future, Damei Jiangbei, dreams to sail.
