On March 20, Du Xiaogang, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, had a meeting with Craig Garthwaite, a professor at the Kellogg School of Management of Northwestern University.
Vice Mayor Qin Yongxin and the main responsible comrades of Wuxi High-tech Zone attended the talks.
Du Xiaogang welcomed the arrival of Craig Garthwaite and his entourage, and briefly introduced the high-quality development of our city.
He said that at present, the city is firmly grasping the primary task of high-quality development, developing new quality productivity according to local conditions, and building a "465" modern industrial cluster with biomedicine as a landmark industry. At the same time, we will steadily promote high-level opening-up and steadily expand institutional opening-up focusing on attracting overseas talents and promoting overseas investment. In this process, it is inseparable from the blessing and empowerment of first-class universities at home and abroad.
It is hoped that the Kellogg School of Management of Northwest University will fully connect its own talent and resource advantages with Wuxi's development advantages and industrial advantages, and work together to carry out all-round and in-depth exchanges and cooperation in Sino-foreign cooperation in running schools and promoting the development of the biomedical industry.
Wuxi will provide the best quality factor guarantee and the most efficient government service for the development of major universities and talents from all walks of life in Wuxi, and jointly create a model of mutual empowerment and mutual achievement.
Craig Garthwaite said that as one of the top 10 comprehensive universities in the United States and one of the top three business schools, the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University attaches great importance to interdisciplinary learning and international exchange, and is seeking cooperation around medical and health topics.
In recent years, Wuxi attaches great importance to the development of biomedicine, a landmark industry, and has gathered many industry leading enterprises, important platforms and innovative talents, hoping to carry out more and more extensive cooperation with Wuxi, work together to promote the industrialization and commercialization of scientific research achievements in the industry, and promote more cutting-edge technologies, high-quality products and professional services in the medical field to the world, for the benefit of all mankind.
