City taps Silicon Valley mayors for advice on innovation, education

By Li Yang in Chengdu | China Daily | Updated: 2015-08-26 09:42

Nine city mayors from the United States’ Silicon Valley region arrived in Chengdu on July 12 to speak with local governors, keen to learn from their experiences in promoting innovation.

Catherine Carlton, mayor of Menlo Park in California, said innovation and startup businesses in the Silicon Valley region are supported by the government, enterprises and universities, and that the interaction of this triangle generates a joint driving force.

This group also communicates with high-technology enterprises in the European Union every three months to keep abreast of cutting-edge developments in science and technology, she said.

Jeff Gee, mayor of Redwood, added that he was impressed during the visit and he hopes Chengdu can strengthen education exchanges with his city.

Raymond Greene, the US consul-general in Chengdu, said the US has paid special attention to the investment opportunities in Chengdu and is working to strengthen cooperation in education sectors and research and development enterprises.

The Silicon Valley mayors and Chengdu leaders signed an international incubator agreement that is expected to transform the will for strengthened cooperation in areas of high-tech and innovation into concrete projects in the next five years.

High-tech, low-carbon technology and tourism help to support major industry in California and in Chengdu, said Brian Peck, head of the delegation. He said he hoped the new agreement, which will intensify communication between governments, universities and enterprises, would help the two sides to develop.

David Haubert, mayor of the Californian city of Dublin, said innovation has no borders, and that called for more cooperation with Chengdu in terms of technology transformation.

According to the city government, Chengdu saw 116,312 new businesses register in the first half of this year, up 34.7 percent year-on-year and 19.3 percentage points higher than the national average. The startups brought with them 360 billion yuan ($58.7 billion) in registered capital, up 1.42 times from the same period last year and nearly twice the national average.

By the end of June, there were 1.14 million registered market entities in Chengdu, meaning one in 10 Chengdu residents owned their own business. According to the local government, this private business boom highlights the vitality of the city’s economy.

Chinese media reported that experts listed Chengdu as the city with the most favorable business environment in the country last year. The experts agreed that Chengdu was more than just giant pandas, spicy food and a leisurely lifestyle, but also a place nurtured by historic culture and rich in business opportunities.

According to the city’s business and trade promotion department, in the first four months of this year, Chengdu attracted 144.9 billion yuan in investment in 136 projects, making it one of the most popular investment destinations in China during that period.

By late July, 265 of the world’s top 500 enterprises had set up branches in Chengdu, making it the third-largest destination in China for big global companies after Beijing and Shanghai.

Attracted by Chengdu’s rich business opportunities and development potential, Dalian Wanda Group, China’s largest private property developer and the world’s largest cinema chain operator, announced in April that it will invest 102 billion yuan in Chengdu over the next five years. The investment will cover tourism, healthcare, e-commerce and modern city complexes. It is the largest single investment to be made by a private company in a Chinese city.

“The city has plentiful talent resources, strong research abilities and broad market prospects,” said Huang Zheng, a nucleic acid research expert in Chengdu. “The city is an ideal combination of industry, studies and research.”

In the first quarter of this year, the city attracted 12 projects from the world’s top 500 corporations, including one from German chemical industry leader BASF.
