On September 17, the foundation stone was laid for ZGC Industrial Internet Industrial Park (“Industrial Park”), with a total floor area of 450,000 square meters, in Shijingshan District, Beijing.

In terms of industrial planning, the Industrial Park outlines a map of the industrial internet sector with “6+1 industrial directions”. It will actively import the champion enterprises, SMEs and micro-firms in related fields to fill the industrial chain.

When it comes to spatial layout, the Industrial Park plans to build detached buildings for champion enterprises, office buildings, talent apartments, a high-end shopping mall of 30,000 square meters, supportive engineering laboratories, testing and verification platforms, an international conference center, demonstrated production lines, a cutting-edge technology incubator, an exhibition center and other multi-functional space.

As far as innovation service is concerned, the Industrial Park will launch six service systems, including technology R&D, talent training, financial service, market and supply chain, intelligent management and integrated business service, to match firms’ needs.

By gathering the best resources of ZGC Development Group and Shijingshan District Government, it will be built into an industrial internet park covering the most complete sectors, with the largest scale and the most specialized service.

The project, with a total investment of about 9 billion yuan, covers a construction area of some 450,000m², of which 170,00m² are planned for the first phase. After completion, it is expected to host 170 companies, which will generate an annual output of 50 billion yuan, contribute 2 billion yuan to the tax revenue, and create 15,000 jobs. Per capita output is estimated to reach 2.8 million yuan each year, and average land output is predicted to exceed 100 billion yuan per square kilometer.

At the groundbreaking ceremony, Beijing ZGC Industrial Internet Industrial Development co., Ltd. and 12 entities with rich experience in various fields built an innovation ecological alliance, which will link external and internal innovation resources, provide full-cycle, one-stop, butler-esque integrated services for innovators and entrepreneurs, becoming the strongest “backup group” for building a sustainable industrial internet ecosystem, and promoting the development of the industrial internet sector.
