The following is the transcript of the scene:
Hello guests. I am very pleased to come to Ningbo Beilun at the important moment of the opening of the National Double Innovation Week to release the "Yangtze River Delta Regional Integration innovation and development research report" compiled by whale quasi-research institute. As we all know, this year is the beginning of the implementation of the 14th Five-Year Plan, the beginning of the construction of a modern power, and the key year for China's overall economic and social development and epidemic prevention and control.
Let's look first at the first part of the report. First of all, from the perspective of enterprise activity, the "number of newly registered enterprises" is used as an important evaluation index. In the first quarter of this year, the country's newly registered enterprises showed a booming growth trend, comparing the three major power sources of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area found that the Performance of the Yangtze River Delta region was particularly prominent in terms of scale and speed. Among the 41 cities in the Yangtze River Delta region, the speed and scale of new enterprises in Ningbo this year ranked 8th overall, reflecting Ningbo's good economic activity.
Research Report on the Development of Integration and Innovation in the Yangtze River Delta Region
The second main indicator is the "number of patented enterprises", which is an important indicator reflecting the innovation and development of enterprises. Through the "Report", it can be seen that in the first quarter of this year, the patented enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta region showed a greater growth trend in terms of both size and speed.
The third evaluation indicator is "capital ecology". Whale Quasi-Research Institute used two very important dimensions, one is the "number of listed companies", in the first quarter of this year, the number of listed companies in the country was more than 4500, and 457 new companies were added in the quarter. From the perspective of the proportion of the three major power sources, the Yangtze River Delta region is the most eye-catching, accounting for about 34% of the country. Within the Yangtze River Delta region, there were 557 listed enterprises in Zhejiang in the first quarter, accounting for about 36% of the Yangtze River Delta region, reflecting the strong momentum of the development of listed enterprises in Zhejiang and the entire Yangtze River Delta region. Another important indicator is the "number of companies receiving financing", which can directly reflect whether the region is attractive enough for the capital market. The report shows that 6154 enterprises in Zhejiang have obtained financing, of which 735 are in Ningbo.
The fourth evaluation index is "collaborative innovation", and whale quasi-research institute uses enterprise registered capital as a key indicator, which can fully reflect the characteristics of a region's enterprise structure. From the perspective of the whole country, the registered capital is 500,000 to 1 million, and the number of enterprises with a registered capital of 1 million to 5 million is the largest. From the perspective of specific industry distribution, the registered capital of high-tech enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta region is mainly concentrated in the scale of 500,000 to 1 million and 1 million to 5 million. Whale Quasi Research Institute also studied the capital distribution of strategic emerging industries in the Yangtze River Delta, the main features of which are: small and medium-sized enterprises with registered capital of 500,000 to 1 million. That is to say, driven by leading enterprises, small and medium-sized enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta have gained a good momentum of rapid and vigorous development in recent years.
The fifth indicator is "regional innovation resources". The innovation resources of the entire Yangtze River Delta region are relatively dense, and the difference between it and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is that the Yangtze River Delta region mainly revolves around the innovation and development platform of the manufacturing industry. There is a set of data worth paying attention to, although there are more key laboratories in Zhejiang, but it is slightly weaker in terms of the volume of national laboratories. Zhejiang's national laboratories are 17, compared with 41 in Shanghai and 35 in Jiangsu, all of which are relatively behind. But it also reflects a major direction and potential for our future development.
The first part of the "Report" shows that the enterprises, industries, industries and markets in the Yangtze River Delta region have a large volume, which I believe has a certain relationship with the relatively large regional space of our three provinces and one city, but this large-scale volume also further reflects the huge potential and space of the Yangtze River Delta region in promoting high-quality integrated development in the future. We can also see that the region has its own strengths and advantages, such as Shanghai's capital leadership is very prominent, Zhejiang's comprehensive strength is strong, and Jiangsu's private economic market activity is very high.
Let's look at the second part - key industries, including a new generation of information technology, new energy vehicles, high-end equipment manufacturing, new materials and integrated circuits and other four aspects.
We first look at the new generation of information technology industry, in the first quarter, the overall growth rate of the country is very fast, the number of yangtze river delta region distribution is very large, Guangdong, Sichuan, Zhejiang province of the new generation of information technology industry in the country is in the forefront of the first echelon. From the perspective of key cities, Ningbo has reached more than 16,000, reflecting the good development momentum of Ningbo in the new generation of information technology industry. In the new energy automobile industry, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Jiangsu have more new energy automobile industries, and the Yangtze River Delta region accounts for 25% of the country. From the perspective of key cities, Ningbo ranks 4th, with more than 11,000 related enterprises. From the perspective of high-end equipment manufacturing industry, the development momentum of Zhejiang, Guangdong and other provinces is still strong. Among the key cities, Ningbo ranked second, which also proved Ningbo's basic advantages in equipment manufacturing and machinery manufacturing. From the perspective of new materials, the number of new material industry enterprises in Guangdong, Zhejiang, Hebei and other places has increased significantly. It is worth noting that Ningbo's advantages in this field are very prominent in the Yangtze River Delta and even the whole country. In terms of integrated circuits, Beijing, Tianjin, Henan Province and other places increased significantly in the first quarter, and the number of integrated circuit industry enterprises in Ningbo ranked fifth at the end of the first quarter.
Summarizing the second part, the key industries in the Yangtze River Delta region, whether compared with the three major power sources or from the perspective of national development, have shown a development trend with good momentum, large scale and large volume. This is also an important support and guarantee for the high-quality development of the Yangtze River Delta region. At the same time, we can also see that the 4 provinces and cities have their own characteristics, Shanghai's various industries are relatively balanced, Zhejiang's digital economy is prominent, Jiangsu's new energy industry is leading, and Anhui has developed rapidly in recent years in integrated circuit new materials and other industries.
The third part is the innovative development of key case cities. Whale Institute selected several representative cities, such as Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Hefei and Ningbo. I'll introduce you one by one.
Shanghai is a national scientific and technological innovation center with international influence, including Zhangjiang Comprehensive National Science Center, etc., and the scientific and technological innovation capabilities of these major platforms have a very important influence in the country and even the world. In recent years, we have seen that around the creation of a talent system for scientific and technological innovation, the creation of a comprehensive network of service innovation, and the promotion of the development of manufacturing and strategic emerging industries, there are many highlights, especially in the investment in innovation and the gathering of talents and the transformation of innovative achievements, which also reflects Shanghai's policy advantages and Shanghai's scientific and technological innovation strength.
Speaking of Nanjing, it has made a good exploration around the integration of the industrial chain innovation chain and the cultivation of the industrial chain around the innovation chain, especially through the integration of the two chains, constantly promoting the continuous optimization of the industrial structure, building some high-end innovation platforms, such as the establishment of more than 30 national key laboratories, and also attracting some top scientific and technological experts and overseas innovation collaboration centers. These are the highlights of Nanjing's development in recent years.
As we all know, the digital economy leads the innovative development of Hangzhou. From the beginning of the 14th Five-Year Plan period to a long time to come, in the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, digital empowerment is an important variable to promote economic development. Hangzhou's high-quality development trend in the digital economy is particularly strong, which also accumulates a good foundation for the future development of artificial intelligence and other related industries around the digital economy. In addition, Hangzhou has also cultivated a large number of innovation incubation carriers to promote the substantial market transformation of scientific and technological achievements in related fields.
Hefei is a comprehensive national science center, in recent years in some key areas to overcome difficulties, to achieve breakthroughs in the scientific and technological environment in some key areas, especially to promote the development of the industrial chain, and continue to strengthen innovation and entrepreneurship and industrial integration with Shanghai and other Yangtze River Delta integration regional cities, greatly improving Hefei's influence competitiveness in scientific and technological innovation and development.
Finally, let's talk about Ningbo. We have seen that in recent years, whether it is in the vitality of innovation and development, the volume of innovation and development, or the momentum of innovation and development, many rankings are moving forward, which of course also gathers a four-in-one innovation promotion system such as policy, talent, production and scientific research. Ningbo's innovation and entrepreneurship, including some cases of innovation and entrepreneurship in Beilun, fully reflect some of Ningbo's positive actions and highlights in the development of innovation and entrepreneurship in recent years.
As a national innovation and innovation demonstration base, Beilun City's demonstration role, demonstration status and function have become increasingly prominent. In particular, "Youth Beilun", which is a golden signboard, has become a youth who attracts more innovation and entrepreneurship, and gathers Beilun to promote innovative development. We also see that Beilun has done a lot of communication and service work in the interaction between innovation and industry, the synergy of the industrial chain innovation chain, the guarantee of double creation services, and the construction of the talent system. It can be said that Ningbo has greatly improved in the past few years in terms of the scale, quality, structure or potential of economic development, and will play a more important role in the construction of the new development pattern in the future.
I think that by fully excavating enterprise data, the Whale Quasi-Research Institute has better analyzed the basic situation of the regional economy and industry industries, which can make us more vividly understand the development trend of the industry. This is a good attempt and a new breakthrough, and I believe that there will be greater achievements in data mining, industry analysis, enterprise analysis and so on in the future.
Thank you, I'm done posting.
