Follow the light and create new ideas for prosperity. The transformation from a century old industrial and commercial city to a new energy city is accelerating, which is a vivid portrayal of Changzhou's shaping of the first driving force and moving towards high-quality development. Shaping the first driving force is inseparable from the talent as the first resource. Tianhe Solar Energy Co., Ltd. has achieved significant innovations in battery efficiency and module power technology multiple times, which cannot be separated from the support of a group of university research institutes such as Nanjing University Changzhou High tech Research Institute. Entering the Changzhou Science and Education City, where the Changzhou High tech Research Institute of Nanjing University is located, the environment here is pleasant and the characteristics are distinct: the higher education park is fragrant with books and moistens the heart, gathering six universities; The "tea" in the industrial park is full of fragrance, and activities such as "Angel Afternoon Tea" in finance, "Angel Afternoon Tea" in marketing, and "Half Month Afternoon Tea" in service are being carried out to build a "high-speed channel" between talent, companies, platforms, capital, market, and government; The Science and Technology Park is quiet and peaceful, with a large number of researchers buried in it for experimentation and dedicated research. Only scientific researchers can calm down and unleash the magnificent innovative vitality, "said Li Qiang, Dean of Jiangsu Research Institute at Dalian University of Technology and General Manager of Changzhou Science and Education City Investment Holding Group. Technological innovation is the only way to win people. The Science and Education City area, which used to be a "land of fields and fields, with few farms," now boasts numerous avenues and high-rise buildings, including the Chuangyan Port series of buildings, intelligent manufacturing Longcheng Laboratory, and talent apartments. The Science and Education City has gathered resources from prestigious universities such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Nanjing University, and Dalian University of Technology. It has established and introduced 47 public research and development institutions such as the Chinese Academy of Intelligent Science and Technology Application Research Institute, and has a matrix of important research and development institutions; The total number of graduates cultivated has reached nearly 500000, with a total of over 22000 talents introduced in different fields and industries, including 29 academicians who have been flexibly introduced. The construction of the national "Deep Space Exploration Laboratory" and the "Wentian" and "Mengtian" space experimental modules... a group of "major power weapons" that face the forefront of world science and technology and national strategic needs contain the "science and education city element". To truly make technology the primary productive force, it is necessary to take a crucial step to connect the "university bookshelf" to the "market shelf". The Science and Education City has conducted horizontal cooperation with more than 5800 enterprises, signing more than 7600 contracts with a contract amount of 5.61 billion yuan, driving the output value to nearly 100 billion yuan. The Science and Education City thrives due to 'education', thrives due to 'science', and becomes strong due to 'talent'. Qiao Junjie, a member of the Standing Committee of the Changzhou Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Party Working Committee of the Science and Education City, stated that in the future, we will focus on building six new highlands: international cooperation, innovative research and development, achievement transformation, talent gathering, industrial cultivation, and vocational education. The development of the Science and Education City is one of the achievements of Changzhou's strengthened innovation driven policy orientation. The R&D expenditure in Changzhou City accounts for 3.3% of the regional gross domestic product, and the output value of high-tech industries accounts for 53.76% of the total output value of industries above designated size.
