An investment environment promotion conference on the new-generation information technology (IT) of Chongchuan district opened in Beijing, the capital city of China, on Aug 11.

The conference aims to introduce the new development opportunities and demonstrate Chongchuan's superior business environment to the city's high-quality enterprises. A total of 16 projects were signed at the site.

Liu Hao, Party secretary of Chongchuan district, attended the meeting and made a speech. He said that Nantong, located at the intersection of the three national development strategies – the Belt and Road Initiative, the Yangtze River Economic Belt and the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, is striving to become a pivot of the Shanghai-Suzhou-Nantong delta area.

In recent years, Chongchuan district has kept up with the development trend of the new-generation IT and grasped the opportunities created by the new infrastructure. The district has also vigorously developed new-generation IT industries centering on IT application innovation and the internet of vehicles, as well as the high-end manufacturing industries represented by artificial intelligence, integrated circuits and robots.

At present, the Yangtze River Area Cyber Security Industrial Park, constructed by Chongchuan district, the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, has opened as an approved provincial pilot area for the internet of vehicles in Jiangsu province.

A string of high-quality projects with huge investment and strong impact have been signed to settle in the park or have started construction, including those of Beijing-based companies such as Venustech, Hirain and Topsec, making Chongchuan's new-generation IT industry more promising.

Chongchuan will provide a superior environment, preferential policies and considerate services for enterprises stationed in Chongchuan, Liu added.
