A total of 15 enterprises involved in the health industry signed agreements with a health technology town in Qidong, Nantong, Jiangsu province on April 9, in order to operate in the town.

The health technology town is located in the southern part of Qidong and people can quickly get to Shanghai through Chongming-Qidong Bridge and the G40 Shanghai-Shaanxi Expressway. It takes only 50 minutes to drive to Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone.

The first phase of this tech town was constructed by Shanghai Greenland Group, a globally operated group focusing on the construction of landmark buildings in cities. To date, 30 buildings have been completed, covering 161,000 square meters.

Centered on life and health, the town integrates life science, high-end medicine and health services, offering supporting services such as residence, medical treatment and education.

With the help of resources in Shanghai, the health technology town is expected to be built as a life science base in the Yangtze River Delta region and an industrial cluster for enterprises engaging in health technology.

Accordingly, its planning exhibition center has been established and several businesspeople have been attracted and intend to operate in the town. 

Most of the 15 newly signed enterprises are based in Shanghai. They all feel confident about their development in the town, as it boasts a favorable location and complete supporting facilities.
