Development model of China
needs to be changed
Why We Need Science & Technology Park
GDP of 2015 is 190 times of 1978, yearly increasing rate is nearly 10% over 37 years.
X108 RMB
For instance, even the total GDP is the No.2 in the world, the GDP per
person is less then 10% of Japan. (Japan:39573USD, China: 3566USD)
Development model Change:
from “Made in China” to “Create in China”.
Only through owning independent intelligence property and

developing its own patents and brands, will China be able to
stand out in the world, and Chinese people will then live a life of
“equality, freedom and dignity.”
How to change the development model ?

Science Parks / Incubators can help a lot
for the development model change
Definition and Inscape of Science Park
The growth of a great number of high-tech SMEs is one of the very
important factor for the development model change from Made in China
to Create in China.
How could we make it easier for SMEs to growth?
Just like the forest needs good nature environment, the fast development
of SMEs need perfect Eco-system to survive and
growth. Silicon Valley is one of the best Eco-system in
the world
