"Free Trade Blue Bay" is located at the west gateway of Airport New City, with an area of about 2.8 square kilometers. As a Linkong science and technology innovation industry agglomeration area with Shaanxi agglomeration characteristics, "Free Trade Blue Bay" will focus on the proposition of life science and technology, attract intelligent medical equipment and innovative pharmaceutical industries, pull regional popularity through Linkong medical beauty, digital health management and other industries, and use the smart supply chain platform for production services.

With the official closure and operation of the Xixian Airport Comprehensive Free Trade Zone in Shaanxi on January 22 this year, the airport new city has completed an important piece of the puzzle of the airport economy. Whether it is an innovative case or a passenger and cargo throughput, Airport New City has achieved good results in the development of free trade and service trade.
Under the condition of coexistence of technology iteration on the supply side and the trend of consumption-side upgrading and population aging, the traditional biomedical industry is constantly changing to the industrial integration pattern of life science and technology, and the airport new city should also choose high-value and high-popular links to promote integration and upgrading, and achieve the goal of attracting industries and attracting people.
Therefore, the industrial system planning of "Free Trade Blue Bay" is led by intelligent medical equipment and innovative drugs, led by the extension of related industries, upstream and downstream, and supported by "2 leading industries of intelligent medical equipment and innovative drugs, 2 characteristic industries of Linkong medical beauty and digital health management, and 1 intelligent supply chain platform", and the "221" life science and technology industry system has been built.
In addition, in August this year, the State Council and the State Council issued the "Several Measures on Promoting the Reform and Innovation of Trade and Investment Facilitation in the Pilot Free Trade Zone", supporting the pilot free trade zone to carry out the promotion of the "two ends outside" bonded maintenance business, supporting the development of offshore trade in the pilot free trade zone, and the "free trade blue bay" will also use the policy east wind to build an offshore trade center and airport bonded maintenance base with the most complete business formats, the most forms and the best policies in the western region.
The construction of the functional area of the airport new city of the Shaanxi Pilot Free Trade Zone uses the "Blue Bay" to accelerate the "going to sea" of free trade. "Free Trade Blue Bay" uses the "automatic application" principle, "preferential policy" principle and independent reform and innovation of the pilot free trade zone to provide investors with a wider range of investment opportunities, so that more enterprises can "grow faster and fly higher" in the airport new city.
