Yangtze River Delta megacities
Nanjing's urban characteristics and endowments
This is reflected in the following set of numerical coordinates
With a history of over 3,000 years, Nanjing is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties and the capital of the Ten Dynasties. It has nurtured a history and culture that stretches over a thousand years, with world-class cultural treasures such as the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum and the Ming City Walls, and it is the "Capital of World Literature" as assessed by UNESCO. It is also recognized by UNESCO as the "Literary Capital of the World".
- In terms of total volume, Nanjing's gross regional product reached 1.85 trillion yuan last year, keeping it among the top 10 cities in the country.
- In terms of average volume, GDP per capita of Nanjing's resident population ranks first among provincial capital cities.
- From the point of view of growth rate, this year has started well, and the economic operation in the first quarter is expected to continue to stabilize and improve.
Nanjing is the "third city" of science and education in China, with 53 colleges and universities, 61 research institutes, 96 academicians of the two academies, the third largest number of colleges and universities in China in the construction of the "Double First Class", and more than 1 million college students, with the number of college students per 10,000 people ranking the first among the municipalities directly under the central government and the sub-provincial cities. The number of university students per 10,000 people is the highest among municipalities and sub-provincial cities.
Nanjing is ranked fifth in the world in the "2024 Nature Index - Research Cities" and ninth in the world's technology clusters in the "2024 Global Innovation Index".
Nanjing has stable economic, trade and investment cooperation with more than 210 countries and regions around the world, with superimposed open strategies such as the expansion and opening up of the service industry and the Pilot Free Trade Zone, complete open carriers such as national new zones, development zones, airside economic demonstration zones and comprehensive bonded zones, and the convergence of open corridors such as 10 million-grade large-scale airports, 100-million-ton ports and national high-speed rail hubs.
Focusing on the development direction of eight strategic emerging industries, we will create trillion-level software and information services and 500 billion-level smart grid industry clusters, promote intelligent manufacturing equipment, biomedicine, new energy vehicles, new materials and other industries to accelerate progress toward the 300 billion level, and the scale of integrated circuits and aerospace two industries exceeding 100 billion. At the same time, forward-looking layout of a new generation of artificial intelligence, third-generation semiconductors, genes and cells, meta-universe, future networks and advanced communications, energy storage and hydrogen energy and other future industries.
On this basis, Nanjing has set up four industrial attack and promotion offices to mobilize the city's efforts to break through the four new tracks of artificial intelligence, robotics, biomedicine, and new-generation information and communication.
- Artificial intelligence industry will vigorously implement the "AI+" action, actively develop vertical large model industry, forward-looking layout of AI intelligent body, brain-computer interface, brain-like intelligence, embodied intelligence and other cutting-edge fields, and focus on building a national artificial intelligence innovation and application pilot zone.
- The robotics industry will amplify the advantages of industrial robots, accelerate the development of collaboration, logistics, safety and emergency, public services, personal consumption, medical and health care and other special robots, and actively layout of humanoid robots, and focus on building a national robotics technology innovation and industrial agglomeration.
- The biopharmaceutical industry will seize the niche areas of chemical innovative drugs, traditional Chinese medicine innovative drugs, large molecule drugs, patented APIs, imaging equipment, etc., and actively lay out the cutting-edge tracks such as synthetic biology, so as to concentrate on building a national leading innovative drug and equipment R&D and industrial transformation highland.
- The new-generation information and communication industry will give full play to its pioneering advantages, accelerate the layout of new tracks such as 6G, future network, satellite Internet, quantum communication, optical communication, etc., and concentrate on building a pilot demonstration area for the development of the national 6G industry.
Promote the deep integration of advanced manufacturing and modern service industries, accelerate the building of an international consumption center city, an important financial center, a regional shipping and logistics center, and a famous international exhibition city, vigorously develop the headquarters economy, the premiere economy, and actively cultivate new consumption, cross-border e-commerce, industrial Internet and other platform enterprises, and continue to promote the quality of productive services such as research and development services, professional and technical services, carbon management services, supply chain services and other services. Increase efficiency.
