“看资金扶持最高好像有几千万，力度很大了”“本科来过南京，当时印象就很好”“推荐！南京，靠谱！”……7月20日，2024“海外名校优生江苏行”南京站活动举办。来自牛津、哈佛、斯坦福、麻省理工、剑桥的40名海外优秀博士、硕士汇聚金陵，走访考察科研院所、企业园区，和“师兄”“师姐”畅叙友谊，与当地政府、企业代表共谋发展。
“Looks like the funding support can reach up to tens of millions, that’s quite substantial.” “I visited Nanjing during my undergraduate years and had a great impression.” “Highly recommend! Nanjing is reliable!” On July 20th, the Nanjing stop of the 2024 “Overseas Elite Students’ Jiangsu Tour” was held. Forty outstanding overseas PhD and master’s graduates from Oxford, Harvard, Stanford, MIT, and Cambridge gathered in Nanjing to visit research institutes and enterprise parks, bond with alumni, and discuss development with local government and business representatives.
本场活动由江苏省欧美同学会、南京市委统战部、南京市委人才办主办，南京欧美同学会、建邺区委组织部承办。活动中，播放了“南京i才政策礼包”宣传片，建邺区作创新创业政策推介，海外名校优生代表作交流分享。随后，海外人才还分成2队分别前往江北新区、麒麟科创园，现场考察了创业街区、江苏省产业技术研究院、中科南京信息高铁研究院、中科南京软件技术研究院、中科南京人工智能创新研究院。
This event was hosted by the Jiangsu Western Retuned Scholars Association, the United Front Work Department and the Talent Office of the Nanjing Municipal Committee, and organized by the Nanjing Western Retuned Scholars Association and the Jianye District Committee Organization Department. During the event, the promotional video “Nanjing i-Talent Policy Package” was shown, Jianye District introduced its innovation and entrepreneurship policies, and representatives from overseas elite schools shared their experiences. Subsequently, the overseas talents were divided into two groups to visit the Jiangbei New Area and the Chilin Science and Technology Innovation Park, where they conducted on-site inspections of the startup district, the Jiangsu Industrial Technology Research Institute, the Nanjing Institute of InforSuperHahn, the Nanjing Institute of Software Technology, and the AiRiA.
“产学研协同做得太棒了！”正在牛津大学攻读AI制药博士的赵思邈一边走一边记，他告诉记者，自己主攻干细胞衰老，正和团队开展一个宠物延寿创业项目。通过活动，不仅了解到南京很多给力产业人才政策，还通过现场考察对接了科投机构，“我们聊得非常愉快，能明显感觉到对方很了解我们技术人员创业需要什么，对成果转化、产业链、政策扶持也非常精通。”
“The collaboration among industries, universities and research institutions is outstanding!” Zhao Simiao, a PhD student in AI pharmaceuticals at Oxford University, said while taking notes. He told reporters that he is focusing on stem cell aging and is working with his team on a pet longevity startup project. Through the event, he learned about many of Nanjing’s strong industry talent policies and connected with a venture capital firm on-site. “We had a great conversation, and I could clearly feel that they understood what tech entrepreneurs need and were very knowledgeable about commercialization, industrial chains, and policy support.”
“我们是肯定要落地在江苏的。一来江苏这方面的产业链非常完备，二来我是泰州人，在南京念的本科，回家乡创业是必然选择。”丁晟桓的主攻方向是陶瓷新型工艺，目前的创业方向是创新陶瓷烧结工艺赋能固态电池制备。他的近期规划是博士毕业回苏创业，“希望能在南京成立母公司。”
“We are definitely setting up in Jiangsu. Firstly, the industrial chain here is very complete. Secondly, I am from Taizhou and did my undergraduate studies in Nanjing, so starting a business in my hometown is a natural choice,” said Ding Shenghuan, who specializes in new ceramic processes and is currently focusing on innovative ceramic sintering processes to empower solid-state battery production. His short-term plan is to return to Jiangsu to start his business after completing his PhD, hoping to establish a parent company in Nanjing.
现场，两位在宁创新校友代表还化身“推荐官”，向师弟师妹们分享了个人在宁创新创业经历和体会。
At the event, two alumni representatives who have started businesses in Nanjing took on the role of “recommenders” to share their personal experiences and insights on innovation and entrepreneurship with the current students.
袁方用“实在、靠谱、大萝卜”三个关键词向在场海外名校精英推介南京，并将个人创业秘籍倾囊相授，“步入ESG时代，全国上下对‘脱虚向实’形成共识是我们这一代创业者最大的机遇。要与当地政府相互信任、相互理解、相互扶持、荣辱与共。”Yuan Fang used the words “real, reliable, and big carrot” to recommend Nanjing to the elite overseas students and shared his personal entrepreneurial secrets: “Entering the ESG era, the consensus on ‘returning to the real economy’ across the country is the greatest opportunity for our generation of entrepreneurs. Trust, understand, and support each other with the local government, and share in both honor and disgrace.”
南京大学现代工程与应用科学学院教授、博士生导师李喆自2015年回国后便在南大开展基础研究。“科学氛围非常好。实验空间充足，启动经费各单位也会做相应匹配。生活方面，南京还有分层级的紫金山英才卡，提供包括高端年度体检、公园年卡、地铁卡、家政卡、亲子科普卡等在内的各项优惠，这些都是我自己实际体会过的，称得上是全方位的照顾与爱护。”李喆说，自己经常安利大家，已经成功推荐了2位师弟回国进入南大从事科研工作了。Li Zhe, a professor at the School of Modern Engineering and Applied Sciences at Nanjing University and a PhD supervisor, has been conducting basic research at Nanjing University since returning to China in 2015. “The scientific atmosphere is excellent. There is ample experimental space, and the startup funding is well-matched by various units. In terms of living, Nanjing offers tiered Zijinshan Talent Cards, providing benefits such as high-end annual health checkups, park annual passes, metro cards, housekeeping cards, and parent-child science cards. These are all things I have personally experienced and can attest to the comprehensive care and support.” Li Zhe said that he often recommends Nanjing to others and has successfully encouraged two junior fellows to return to China and join Nanjing University for research.
