Compared with the advanced international level, many industries and enterprises in Jiangsu are still at the medium and low level. Enhancing technology import and joint R&D is an important means to speed up industrial upgrading. Therefore, Jiangsu has huge cooperative demands for innovative resources from outside, with vigorous innovative requirements from its industries and enterprises as well as enormous market potential of new technologies and products.

We encourage the exchange of outstanding talents between Jiangsu and other countries, promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements in Jiangsu, sharing the development opportunities here.

By decades of development, technology and industry have enjoyed a rapid growth in Jiangsu. A series of advanced and applicable technology achievements have been achieved in the fields of industry, agriculture, environment protection and public health, among which a large number of technologies can also meet the needs of developing countries. Based on the principals of mutual benefits and respect for IPR protection, we are willing to advance the innovation cooperation and exchanges with developing countries, play our respective advantages to promote scientific and technological progress and economic

growth together.
