At the opening ceremony, 10 experts were appointed to the think tank to help the new industrial zone develop. The strong alliance fostered by the upstream and downstream businesses will promote a healthier industrial ecosystem.

The Lin-gang Special Area has always attached great importance to solving key technical problems in the biomedical industry and building competitive biomedical industry clusters. More than 30 biomedical businesses have opened in Lin-gang this year, bringing in about 20-billion-yuan in investment.
