Liu Wei, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Songshan Lake Party Working Committee
"Tsinghua alumni and other industry elites in various fields are the most desired and urgently needed talent resources in Dongguan." Liu Wei, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and secretary of the Songshan Lake Party Working Committee, likened Songshan Lake Science City to "the pearl of the Greater Bay Area" in his speech, saying that this year is the 20th anniversary of the establishment of Songshan Lake, and it is also the beginning of the comprehensive construction of Songshan Lake Science City, and today's Songshan Lake needs talents and various innovative resources more than ever.
He especially pointed out that he hopes that more outstanding enterprises, especially the award-winning projects in this competition, can take root and develop in Songshan Lake, hope that investment institutions can pay more attention to and participate in the development of songshan Lake and the construction of Science City, and hope that the Tsinghua Alumni Association will continue to import Tsinghua high-quality resources, so that Dongguan will surge more innovation and entrepreneurship energy.
This is a competition that highlights the "power of Tsinghua". This year's competition focuses on the Internet, cloud computing, blockchain, 5G, industrial interconnection, IT hard technology and new media, new economy and other emerging technology industries, the event brought together from Tsinghua Park, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, Yangtze River Delta and other ten domestic and international competitions to compete in the Tsinghua alumni project, of which many new products, new technologies and new services, new applications made the judges shine, calling it possible to "spawn more new industrial ecology".

"The projects in the growth group have basically gone from 1 to 10, but it is not easy to go from 10 to 100." Wang Xuehui said frankly that Dongguan's industrial cluster advantages are very conducive to the landing of the growth group's projects, and he hopes that local governments can increase their cultivation of these new projects.
Tsinghua Alumni Three Innovation Competition is a large-scale series of creative innovation and entrepreneurship activities sponsored by Tsinghua Alumni Association, which has been successfully held for six sessions. This year, the 6th Tsinghua Alumni Three Innovation Competition Internet and New Media Global Finals came to Dongguan for the first time.
"This Tsinghua Alumni Three Innovation Competition is not only a competition, but also a channel for projects and capital resources to dock and cooperate."

"We can't just define Dongguan as a manufacturing city, Dongguan has many possibilities, with more talents in the Internet and other fields, Dongguan will also spawn more new industrial ecology in the future." Chen Dewei said.
Zhu Xiaocheng, a judge of the Sanchuang Competition, said bluntly that from a business point of view, everyone hopes that the project can see the benefits as soon as possible; but in the long run, it is very important for more early projects to participate, and new projects and new ideas can collide with each other to create new possibilities and open up new tracks.
"Tsinghua Power" empowers dongguan industrial development
This is also a stage to further highlight the attractiveness of Songshan Lake's innovation and entrepreneurship.
Last year, Songshan Lake Science City was included in the construction of the comprehensive national science center pilot area in the Greater Bay Area, achieving a "qualitative" leap from lychee forest to science city.

At present, Dongguan is using the strength of the whole city to build Songshan Lake Science City, China spallation neutron source, advanced atassecond laser and a number of large scientific devices here to accelerate the layout of construction, the Songshan Lake Material Laboratory built with national laboratory standards has been put into operation, the Greater Bay Area University (Songshan Lake Campus), the City University of Hong Kong (Dongguan) and a number of other projects are accelerating construction, and also gathered a number of leading scientific and technological enterprises such as Huawei, Huabei, Shengyi, Goertek, etc., and built the Songshan Lake International Innovation and Entrepreneurship Community, songshan Lake Talent Building, A number of high-quality innovation and entrepreneurship platforms, such as the Hong Kong and Macao Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Base, have formed a full-chain and all-factor innovation ecosystem from original innovation to enterprise cultivation.

Today's Dongguan is in accordance with the concept of "building the city in the park, moving the forest into the city", to create a model of a modern ecological city with beauty, taste, culture and temperature, so that Songshan Lake will become a city where talents "come and don't want to go", a city that matches the quality of a first-class science city.
With the continuous introduction of international technology and talents in school-site cooperation, the Songshan Lake International Innovation and Entrepreneurship Community, which has been established for just over a year, has attracted many high-level projects to settle down, and has become a highland for innovation and entrepreneurship. The relevant person in charge of the Songshan Lake Science and Education Bureau believes that the Songshan Lake Innovation and Entrepreneurship Community is only a microcosm of Dongguan. In fact, the story of innovation and entrepreneurship of Songshan Lake has long been spread throughout the entire Songshan Lake functional area, and even continues to extend to the whole city.
On the 29th, the organizer specially held a school-site cooperation and exchange meeting and a "Tsinghua Alumni Dongguan Trip" project matchmaking meeting to further promote the landing of outstanding creative innovation and entrepreneurship projects in Dongguan. A number of project leaders clearly stated that the business environment in Dongguan has improved significantly in recent years, and they are very much looking forward to the landing and development of Dongguan. Between the venues, the project leaders talked frequently and discussed cooperation matters.
"What surprises me is that a large number of high-end talents who should have been in the north, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen are now converging on Songshan Lake, which was unimaginable ten years ago." The relevant person in charge of the Songshan Lake Science and Education Bureau said that now large enterprises have begun to appear in Songshan Lake, and the half-hour supplier circle around large enterprises is becoming clearer and clearer. He especially pointed out that Dongguan has a strong industrial foundation, and the Tsinghua Alumni Three Innovation Competition has brought many new elements of TMT (technology, media and communications) to Dongguan, "which is like making this plate of food for Dongguan, adding more spices, and making Dongguan's industrial ecology more exciting."
The introduction of TMT provides a lot of imagination space for Dongguan's industrial transformation and upgrading. At the Tsinghua Alumni Helping Dongguan High-quality Development Forum, Li Zhu, Founding Chairman of the Internet and New Media Committee of Tsinghua Alumni Association, Founding Partner of Innova Angel Fund and Founding Partner of Mizuki Tsinghua Alumni Fund, delivered a keynote speech on "TMT and Cutting-edge Innovation". He said: "In the next decade, the most certainty will be scientific and technological innovation. Venture capital is full of a lot of uncertainty, and the only thing we can do is embrace uncertainty, keep learning, and grasp the way of thinking about investing. ”
In the roundtable dialogue session, experts and scholars and industry leaders discussed two issues: "Where is the trend of TMT in the future" and "how to help Dongguan's high-quality development". Yuan Jianxiong, general manager of Garage Coffee Fund Management Company, believes that in the future, TMT will show a trend of cloudization and decentralization.
As for how the "Tsinghua Power" empowers the development of Dongguan industry, Xiao Bin, deputy director of Tsinghua Dongguan Innovation Center and general manager of Tsingda Venture Capital, believes that with the continuous transformation and upgrading of Dongguan, innovative platforms have been settled, and Dongguan's genes are also constantly transforming, and the next need to further enrich the investment system conducive to technology bearing and development.
"Holding a unity alliance can produce far more power than fighting alone." Yuan Jianxiong believes that Dongguan should continue to support the development of the incubator industry, promote the landing of new forms of incubation, continuously guide cooperation between large enterprises and incubators, encourage the development of investment incubators, help the linkage development of investment institutions and incubators, and continue to deepen school-site cooperation and school-enterprise cooperation.
Xia Chaoyang, founding partner of Common Investment, believes that on the basis of building an innovative ecological pattern, Dongguan should closely focus on the Greater Bay Area in the future to do a good job in cultivating the innovation ecology and play a leading role in the development of high-quality and multi-level innovative society in the Greater Bay Area.
