The Chongchuan Economic Development Zone in Nantong, East China's Jiangsu province, has over the past decade been making efforts to promote its industrial transformation and upgrading. 

For example, the zone has built some industrial parks, including Huahui Zhigu Science Park, Nantong Zhongguancun Information Valley Innovation Center, and Chuangyuan Science and Technology Town, to attract enterprises engaged in fields such as intelligent equipment, new materials, new-generation information technology and biomedicine to set up projects here. 

Established in May 2021, the Huahui Zhigu Science Park is currently home to nearly 60 enterprises focused on information technology, intelligent manufacturing and headquarter economy. 

The local government established the science and technology bureau recently to optimize the zone's innovation environment. The bureau will provide full life cycle services to enterprises in terms of policies, funds and platforms, according to authorities. 

Founded in 1958, Nantong Wanda Boiler Co Ltd is one of the outstanding enterprises in pursuing innovation in the zone, which has 72 effective patents. 

Authorities have implemented a string of measures to attract high-caliber talents who will play a vital role in advancing innovation in the zone. The measures include streamlining approval procedures, providing financial support and building talent communities. 

The zone is presently home to seven startup projects and 821 effective patents.
