Chinanews Client Beijing, September 2 (Zuo Yukun) "Among all the areas in the third batch of pilot free trade zones, the system innovation index of the Wuhan area ranks first, and the government function transformation indicators of the Wuhan, Xiangyang and Yichang areas Separately ranked first, second and fourth." In April, on the third anniversary of the Hubei Free Trade Zone, the head of the Hubei Provincial Department of Commerce introduced the development results of the Hubei Pilot Free Trade Zone.
On August 31, the "Walking Free Trade Zone" Hubei Pilot Free Trade Zone Cloud Forum was held online.
Relevant persons in charge of the Hubei Pilot Free Trade Zone, including Wuhan, Xiangyang, and Yichang, attended the "cloud symposium" and updated the results of the Hubei Pilot Free Trade Zone in actively undertaking the transfer of emerging industries and continuously exploring the reform and innovation of institutional mechanisms. Detailed sharing.
Among them, the Wuhan Free Trade Zone, located in the core area of the East Lake High-tech Zone, known as the "Optics Valley of China", has gradually formed an industrial cluster effect and has become a well-known emerging industry cluster in my country.

"Wuhan Free Trade Zone focuses on the development of a new generation of information technology, life and health, intelligent manufacturing and other strategic emerging industries, as well as modern service industries such as international commerce, financial services, and modern logistics, creating a pioneering zone for innovation and openness-driven development, advanced manufacturing and modern Service industry demonstration zones, strategic emerging industries and high-tech industry clusters, and central areas are opening up new heights.” Said Sun Qianwen, deputy director of the Wuhan East Lake New Technology Development Zone Management Committee.
What is the next step in the development of high-end manufacturing in the Hubei Free Trade Zone (Wuhan Area), which focuses on high-tech?
Deng Hua, deputy director of the Free Trade Reform and Innovation Bureau of Donghu High-tech Zone, gave a detailed introduction.

Further opening up
Deng Hua said that with the continuous improvement of the openness of the Wuhan area, star companies such as Honeywell and Cel Group have settled in the area. There are now more than 1,000 foreign-funded enterprises and 100 of the world’s top 500 companies have invested in the Wuhan Free Trade Area. .
Next, the Wuhan area must first fully implement the "Foreign Investment Law" and the 2020 version of the negative list of the pilot free trade zone, give full play to the advantages of the free trade zone as a new height of reform and opening up in the new era, and increase the intensity of attracting foreign investment.
Accelerate the construction of key foreign-funded projects such as the South Korea's Purcell Biopharmaceutical Project and Honeywell's China Headquarters in Emerging Markets. Relying on the Wuhan Industrial Park in the Hubei Strait Industrial Cooperation Zone, we will focus on introducing a number of high-end manufacturing, biomedical and other industrial projects.
Secondly, it is necessary to deepen the opening up of high-tech industries and modern service industries, and enhance the position of advantageous manufacturing in the region in the global industrial chain, innovation chain, and value chain.
Finally, we must encourage manufacturing companies to go global, vigorously develop cross-border e-commerce of industrial products, and foster new trade formats.
Further promote the construction of major industrial projects
According to Deng Hua, the next step in the Wuhan area will focus on building two trillion-level industrial clusters, "optical core screen terminal network", biomedicine and medical equipment, and pay close attention to the implementation of major industrial projects.
The first is to accelerate the construction of the second phase of the national memory base project, and promote the completion of the second phase of Tianma G6 and the second phase of Wuhan Xinxin's expansion project within the year, which will inject strong impetus into the expansion of the "optical core screen terminal network" industrial chain.
The second is to accelerate the construction of high-end medical equipment research and development and intelligent manufacturing industry projects such as United Imaging Medical Wuhan Headquarters Base and Mindray Medical Wuhan Project, and strive to build a biomedicine and medical device industry cluster.
Further strengthen the industrial space carrier
"Accelerate the construction of the '1133' industrial innovation space layout, create 1 innovation spindle, 1 core innovation source, 3 innovation nodes and 3 100 billion avenues." Deng Hua introduced.
At the same time, the Wuhan area will build the core bearing area of the "Optics Valley Science and Technology Innovation Corridor" and the Optics Valley Science Island at a high level in the next step. The layout and construction of the East Lake Laboratory, precision gravity measurement, pulsed strong magnetic field experimental lifting device and other major scientific and technological infrastructure and key points The scientific research platform adds weight to the source innovation for leading industries.

Further accelerate the cultivation of future industrial innovation clusters
"Wuhan Free Trade Zone is a leading zone for innovation and entrepreneurship. It has 63 technology business incubators (20 at the national level and 17 at the provincial level), 101 entrepreneurial spaces, and more than 500 entrepreneurial service organizations, attracting more than 200,000 technology companies every year. Personnel innovation and entrepreneurship." Sun Qianwen told Chinanews.com.
Regarding the next plan to continue cultivating future industrial innovation clusters, Deng Hua said that first, we will fully implement policies such as "Wuhan Area 20 Points for Accelerating the Development of Online New Economy", "Optics Valley Internet + Ten Points for Education" and other policies to accelerate industrial digitalization, networking, and Intelligent upgrade.
The second is to increase the construction of new infrastructure and new economic application scenarios, further promote the in-depth integration of advanced manufacturing and modern service industries, and provide market opportunities for new economic enterprises.
The third is to improve the whole life cycle gradient cultivation chain of enterprises, strengthen the cultivation path of "incubator-start-up enterprise-gazelles enterprise-unicorn enterprise-birth new industry", and give birth to a batch of subversive and innovative "gazelles enterprise" and "independent enterprises". Horned Beast Enterprise".
