Zhongguancun Development Group promotes the deep integration of technological innovation and industrial innovation through integrated services

Draw the blueprint all the way through; the spring breeze blows wide and makes it easy to urge the whip.

In the opening year of the “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan and the Sixteenth Five-Year Plan” period, as a state-owned large enterprise with science and technology services as its main business and a platform for scientific and technological innovation services, Zhongguancun Development Group moves first, playing the “opening move” and fully devoting itself to serving the construction of the Beijing (Jing-Jin-Ji) International Science and Technology Innovation Center, with a focus on building an important source of independent innovation in our country and a major driver of original innovation.

Taking the lead in building strategic science and technology strength and tackling key technical challenges, it helps more scientific and technological achievements move from the “shelf” to the “display shelf,” boosting emerging industries and future industries to run at “full speed.”

“To promote deep integration of science and technology innovation and industrial innovation through high-level science and technology services, and to continuously strengthen the endogenous driving force of economic development, making a determined bid for first place in Chinese-style modernization.” Li Yan, Party Secretary of Zhongguancun Development Group and Chairman of the Board of Directors, said. On the new journey, Zhongguancun Development Group will leap toward becoming an international first-class innovation ecosystem integrated service provider, with the resilience of “sharpening a sword for ten years” and the courage of “being the first to dare,” striving to be a vanguard in promoting high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-strengthening, a vanguard in building a modern industrial system, and a vanguard in developing new quality productive forces.

The spring breeze nurtures new greenery; with a vision toward strength in innovation, there is confidence.

When people work hard, spring comes early; advancement is just the right time.

To drive deep integration between science and technology innovation and industrial innovation, and to leap from “single-point breakthroughs” to “ecosystem building,” Zhongguancun Development Group’s development confidence is concentrated in the scorecards of “a red-hot opening,” “a red-hot whole year,” and “a red-hot year after year.”

In the opening year of the “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan and the Sixteenth Five-Year Plan” period, Zhongguancun Development Group blooms in multiple places, with a “red-hot opening” as early as the first quarter.

The 2026 Zhongguancun Forum annual meeting was successfully held; the Zhongguancun International Technology Trading Center started operations; the completed results report of the opinion-collection meeting for the Macau Science and Technology R&D Industrial Park was finalized, passed review, and formally submitted; Beijing International Engineering Consulting Co., Ltd. was successfully selected as one of the national development and reform commission’s entrusted investment consulting evaluation institutions for the once-every-five-years program; Zhongguancun Technology Guarantee’s first batch of “venture capital-guaranteed” (“chuangtou dan”) projects were officially launched; the board of the Green Energy Guozhuan Center (Beijing) was inaugurated; and the fundraising and establishment of an insurance-venture capital linkage fund, Jinzidi (Phase II), S Fund (Phase III), and the “Three Cities and One District” funds……

Accelerate and improve efficiency, and keep “bringing in new offerings.” Why is Zhongguancun Development Group bursting with vitality?

Without taking even small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles; without accumulating small streams, one cannot form rivers and seas.

Looking across the “Fourteenth Five-Year Plan,” the achievements delivered by Zhongguancun Development Group are heavy and substantial.

Cumulatively served more than 140,000 innovation and entrepreneurship entities; provided technology enterprises with investment and financing services totaling nearly 400 billion yuan; supported more than 2,600 high-precision, high-tech industry landing and innovation incubation projects in Beijing; and invested in more than 170 original achievement projects in cutting-edge fields.

In the closing year of the “Fourteenth Five-Year Plan,” the group cumulatively connected with more than 100 national strategic science and technology forces; served 32 scientific research teams with industry influence; cumulatively served 19,000 innovation-and-entrepreneurship (“shuangchuang”) entities; implemented 560 high-precision, high-tech industry and innovation incubation projects; provided a total investment and financing service amount of 79.3 billion yuan; and the total area of technology parks operating in Beijing reached 2.26 million square meters.

Numbers say nothing; practical work speaks loudly!

On deepening service to the sources of original innovation, Zhongguancun Development Group innovatively launched the “Hundreds of Schools and Thousands of Fruits” special campaign, deeply linking 63 universities such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, and Harbin Institute of Technology, and reserving 1,338 projects. In 2025, it invested in 42 original-innovation source projects such as Qingchao Zhuyi and Zhongyin Technology, with an investment amount of 1.307 billion yuan, helping scientific and technological achievements move from laboratories to production lines.

On the artificial intelligence track, Zhongguancun Development Group, working with Haidian District and Zhongguancun Academy, jointly initiated and established Zhongguancun Native Engine (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd., taking on the operation of a national regional technology transfer and transformation center for artificial intelligence in universities; it took the lead in establishing the Beijing Association for Artificial Intelligence, and initiated the establishment of a national university artificial intelligence achievements transformation venture capital fund; it further deepened the docking of application scenarios across multiple fields and dimensions, including intelligent computing, XR integration, medical inspection, and embodied service robots, among others, and won approval for the “Zhongguancun Artificial Intelligence Enterprises Innovation and Going Global Service Port,” injecting strong momentum into Beijing’s effort to build the “No. 1 global city for artificial intelligence.”

In deepening the construction of an innovation ecosystem of integrated services, with strengthened patience-capital supply, Zhongguancun Capital successfully issued its first batch of a 500 million yuan equity investment institution technology innovation bond. With strengthened supply of common technology services, it added 7 common technology service platforms such as the Weishii embodied intelligence research institute. A high-performance chip testing and verification platform, jointly invested and built with leading enterprises in the industrial chain, was officially put into operation, providing technical support for a number of enterprises in Beijing. It was selected as one of the first batches of key pilot-conversion (zhongshi) platforms for cultivation by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology; the total number of platforms cumulatively reached 46.

“Focusing on the entire chain—0-1 original innovation, 1-10 incubation and acceleration, and 10-N industrialization development—Zhongguancun Development Group plays the role of a ‘science and technology innovation partner,’ enabling innovation with innovation services, allowing innovation to grow. It injects continuous momentum into the capital’s innovation-driven development and the building of a science and technology powerhouse.” Yang Renquan, Party Deputy Secretary and General Manager of Zhongguancun Development Group, said.

The spring breeze brings warmth; precise services add momentum.

How do “good seeds” of scientific research grow into “golden fruits” of industrial development? How can this “key variable” of science and technology innovation be smoothly converted into the “largest increment” of new quality productive forces?

By promoting deep integration between science and technology innovation and industrial innovation, from “single-point breakthroughs” to “ecosystem building,” and embedding an industrial mindset throughout the entire innovation value chain, Zhongguancun Development Group acts as both a “connector” and an “accelerator,” and writes the answer sheet in the form of担当 (responsible, practical actions) in “being ahead” and “serving as a model.”

Let me give a few examples.

At the 2026 Zhongguancun Forum annual meeting, a group of foreign guests came to the permanent exhibition area and, around a transparent brain model, raised their thumbs. What they saw was China’s independently developed semi-invasive “Beinao No. 1” intelligent brain-computer system. At present, “Beinao No. 1” has completed implantation surgeries for seven subjects. Behind “Beinao” is full-spectrum hard-core support from Zhongguancun Development Group.

In 2022, Zhongguancun Development Group funded and established the Beinao Fund, supporting the Beijing Institute of Brain Science and Brain-Inspired Research to focus on brain-computer interface R&D and clinical transformation applications, linking key upstream and downstream stages of brain-computer enterprises; it also promoted the Beinao Fund and Beijing Institute of Brain Science and Brain-Inspired Research’s director, Luo Minmin, to jointly initiate and establish the brain-computer interface integrated technology center—Beijing Xinzhida Neurotechnology Co., Ltd.—as the implementing entity of Beijing’s “brain-computer system enhancement plan,” mainly carrying out R&D related to brain-computer technology and industrialization.

Luo Minmin said, “Zhongguancun Development Group’s support for Xinzhida’s innovation and entrepreneurship is comprehensive—in terms of patient capital that invests early and in small amounts, as well as assistance in solving issues such as industry resource coordination and clinical registration for medical devices—so that scientists can focus more on breaking through technical bottlenecks.”

On December 16, 2025, Zhongguancun Development Group’s invested enterprise, Beijing Angrui Microelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Angrui Micro”), rang the listing bell on the Shanghai Stock Exchange’s STAR Market.

“Behind this, it crystallizes the services and hard work of multiple business teams from Zhongguancun Development Group.” said Qian Yongxue, Chairman of Angrui Micro.

As early as 2015, Zhongguancun Technology Guarantee under Zhongguancun Development Group provided Angrui Micro with its first batch of 10 million yuan credit guarantee support, strongly helping it get through a period of phased difficulties. Afterwards, Zhongguancun Development Group provided additional credit guarantees in multiple batches, cumulatively exceeding 100 million yuan, helping it develop core products.

With full-cycle, full-scope post-investment services such as production capacity docking, policy docking, and product testing, Zhongguancun Development Group provided a decade of companionship; finally, Angrui Micro grew from a STAR-market “small seedling” into a hard-technology “big tree.”

Beijing Huoyan New Materials Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Huoyan New Materials”), founded in 2022, focuses on the R&D and manufacturing of two-dimensional semiconductor materials and their growth equipment and detection equipment. It walks a hard-technology entrepreneurship path full of uncertainty.

Seeing its scarcity and technological innovativeness, in May 2023, Zhongguancun Development Group’s Zhongguancun Capital conducted an angel-round investment in Huoyan New Materials.

“As an early-stage funder, Zhongguancun Capital’s support for Huoyan New Materials is comprehensive and far-reaching in significance,” said Xie Liming, founder of Huoyan New Materials. “Financial support is crucial; it provides a solid guarantee for the company’s development. More importantly, Zhongguancun Capital profoundly grasps the actual needs of national development and the direction of long-term strategy.”

The story of Zhongguancun Development Group “empowering” innovation is far more than just these.

Global first! The group’s invested enterprise Boxi Chuanghe covalent targeted therapeutic radiopharmaceutical obtained approval for clinical trials.

Global pioneering! The group’s invested enterprise Huahui Anjian innovative drug has been approved, filling the blank in treatment for liver abscess.

“The first global large-model stock”! The group’s invested enterprise Beijing Zhipu Huazhang Technology Co., Ltd. listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

Galaxy General Robots, Xinzhida, Yuequan bionic, Suanneng Technology, Mianbi Intelligence, Shenshi Technology, Songyan Dynamics…… Zhongguancun Development Group helps these new quality productive forces stars rise one after another.

It is worth mentioning that, to promote efficient transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements, and to build an integrated technology trading comprehensive service system across the whole chain, so as to enable “global buying and global selling” of scientific and technological achievements, on March 16, the Zhongguancun International Technology Trading Center officially started operations.

Here, multi-type ecosystem partners jointly build a new transformation landscape; the “Orange Fruit Shop” activates the vitality at the source of achievements transformation; the “Blue Helmet” and “Consultation Room” precisely solve the difficulties of transformation…… As an important builder and operator, Zhongguancun Development Group’s presence is everywhere.

The spring breeze rides in on a galloping horse; with a broad view of the overall situation, a new chapter begins.

In the opening year of the “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan and the Sixteenth Five-Year Plan” period, a new high-quality development blueprint with “running” as its underlying color and “precision” as its brushstroke is gradually unfolding.

When the “construction plan” of driving science and technology innovation and industrial innovation enters the “real-world scene,” how does Zhongguancun Development Group, in serving the building of a science-and-technology powerhouse and the construction of the Beijing (Jing-Jin-Ji) International Science and Technology Innovation Center, deliver through hard work and take on responsibility with concrete actions?

The “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan and the Sixteenth Five-Year Plan” period is a strategic window for Zhongguancun Development Group to strive for a “second entrepreneurship,” push high-quality development, make breakthroughs in reforms, and shift momentum.

Standing on a new starting point, Zhongguancun Development Group plans its development in a larger coordinate system to find the optimal solution: break through the “融” (integration) approach, and place the “new” in action.

Five years look at the first year; the opening year is the most critical.

The 2025 Central Economic Work Conference proposed building the Beijing (Jing-Jin-Ji), Shanghai (Yangtze River Delta), and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area international science and technology innovation centers. Zhongguancun Development Group takes comprehensive action, linking innovation entities and innovation factors across a broader scope, improving the international collaborative innovation network, and activating the value pull of the innovation ecosystem network.

In Xiong’an New Area’s Zhongguancun Technology Park, “Xiong’an speed” and “innovation concentration” achieve a perfect combination. Over two and a half years, the park’s operating area jumped from 21,000 square meters to 207,000 square meters; more than 260 technology enterprises have been gathered, and the industrial clusters for artificial intelligence and robotics have taken initial shape. In Tianjin Baodi, the Jing-Jin-Zhongguancun Technology City has been included in the Tianjin municipal government work report for eight consecutive years, becoming a model of Jing-Jin cooperation. In the Binhai—Zhongguancun Technology Park, key projects such as the NUST (Beijing Institute of Technology) New Energy and High-Performance Manufacturing Laboratory have been launched one after another.

Looking south. In the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Zhongguancun Development Group’s innovation footprint is extending. A company under the group, Beijing Institute of Industrial Design Co., Ltd., serves as a special commissioned unit of the Macau Special Administrative Region government, providing full-process support for completing the results report of the opinion-collection meeting for the Macau Science and Technology R&D Industrial Park project and smoothly passing reviews by relevant institutions of the Macau Special Administrative Region. This cooperation is a concrete practice of implementing the national strategy to support Macau’s appropriately diversified economic development, and it is also an important measure for the group to deepen cooperation between Beijing and Macau and to serve the construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Looking outward. In 2025, Beijing’s first batch of “Zhongguancun Artificial Intelligence Enterprises Going Global Service Ports” was established, and Zhongguancun Development Group became one of the four awarded units. As of now, the group has cumulatively laid out more than 20 global innovation network nodes, and participated in and established more than 10 overseas funds, with a total fund size of 1 billion USD.

The Zhongguancun Forum annual meeting, held every year, is also a “super reception hall” for the global innovation network. During the 2026 Zhongguancun Forum annual meeting, guests from more than 120 countries and regions gathered together; in more than 100 sessions of activities, they discussed the frontiers of technology, looked into future trends, and jointly explored cooperation and innovation.

To achieve high-level opening-up cooperation, Zhongguancun Development Group further enhances the forum’s market-oriented operational capabilities, helping Beijing build a “strong magnet” for global science and technology exchange and cooperation characterized by openness, cooperation, mutual benefit, and win-win outcomes.

The journey is long; only through striving can success be achieved.

After 16 years of hard work and forging ahead, Zhongguancun Development Group has built deep reserves for a strong emergence.

Focusing on the “5+X” key industrial tracks, it deepens service and deployment, accelerating the cultivation and development of new quality productive forces; it is committed to building new carriers for industrial clusters, polishing the Zhongguancun “golden business card,” and building world-leading technology parks; it focuses on building strong capabilities for industry and building an ecosystem, and works to create new advantages in integrated services across the full cycle and full chain; it works to fully push the transformation and upgrade of the industrial services model from “single-point breakthroughs” to “ecosystem building.”

Those who start sharp must ensure they see it through to the end; successful people plan first at the beginning.

“By focusing on the main business of the technology services industry, and by improving capabilities for innovation ecosystem integrated services through endogenous growth and extension development, we have significantly enhanced our capabilities and become one of the vanguard and standout leaders guiding the high-quality development of China’s technology services industry.” Li Yan said. Anchoring the development blueprint for the “Fifteenth Five-Year Plan and the Sixteenth Five-Year Plan,” Zhongguancun Development Group will vigorously carry forward the striving spirit of “second entrepreneurship,” take out the courage of urging on a galloping horse and whipping onward, ignite the vitality of ten thousand horses galloping together, maintain tireless drive, and strive to write a new chapter of the group’s high-quality development—contributing “Zhong Development strength” to help build a science and technology powerhouse and to serve the construction of the Beijing (Jing-Jin-Ji) International Science and Technology Innovation Center!
