Recently, the Department of Science and Technology of Zhejiang Province announced the results of the 2022 provincial technology enterprise incubator accreditation review, with a total of 25 units in the province passing the review and accreditation. Wanma Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Enterprise Incubator in our district is listed as the only evaluated unit in Huzhou City.
The Wanma Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Enterprise Incubator has a total area of 14000 square meters, focusing on building a professional incubator that gathers high-end equipment manufacturing and key mechanical infrastructure. It adopts an incubation operation model that integrates “professional team operation, precise guidance from mentors, professional platform services, seed funds to assist enterprises, and industrial cluster shaping”. Relying on Wanma Group’s resource advantages in the industrial field, it conducts resource introduction and integration, Emphasis will be placed on integrating upstream and downstream resources of advanced manufacturing related industries such as high-end equipment and key mechanical basic components, leading small enterprises to develop together. This will then incubate the entire industrial chain, including research and development, small-scale testing, pilot production, processing, sales, and promotion, accelerate the growth of incubated enterprises, and quickly form industrialization channels, output value, and benefits. As of now, Wanma Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Enterprise Incubator has accumulated 38 incubated enterprises and 11 graduated enterprises.
In recent years, Wuxing District has vigorously supported the construction of science and technology innovation platforms, cultivating a group of science and technology innovation platforms with distinctive positioning, differentiated development, market-oriented operation, and precise services. They have become an important driving force for promoting economic growth, an important force for transformation and upgrading, and an important support for stabilizing and expanding employment. One is to enhance quality and efficiency through strengthened evaluation. Continuously pay attention to the quality and effectiveness of the construction and development of various scientific and technological innovation platforms, actively participate in the evaluation of provincial and municipal excellent incubators and maker spaces, and highlight the result orientation. This year, our district’s Wanma Intelligent Manufacturing Technology Enterprise Incubator was awarded the title of provincial-level professional incubator; Jiacheng, Qixing, and other two maker spaces have been rated as excellent city level maker spaces. Jiacheng maker spaces have also been awarded the provincial record maker space with excellent performance evaluation (Class A) in 2021 and have passed the national level maker record. As of now, there are 5 provincial-level or above technology enterprise incubators, 5 provincial-level excellent maker spaces, and 3 municipal excellent maker spaces in Wuxing District, all ranking first in the city in terms of quantity. The second is to make a reasonable layout and strengthen innovation. Actively explore and promote the differentiated, specialized, and distinctive development of various scientific and technological innovation platforms, encourage each platform to base itself on local advantages and characteristic industries, introduce targeted incubation of small and medium-sized enterprises in the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, integrate industrial resources, and make the development of each scientific and technological innovation platform highly integrated and coordinated with the industry of Wuxing. We will focus on building intelligent manufacturing science and technology innovation platforms, cultivating provincial-level incubators such as China Energy Conservation to sprint towards national level technology enterprise incubators, cultivating specialized science and technology innovation parks such as Jiacheng and High tech Zone Science and Technology Innovation Parks, and actively striving to apply for provincial-level applications to form a high degree of industrial agglomeration. The third is to improve services and optimize the environment. Starting from environmental optimization, service expansion, resource integration, talent cultivation, and other aspects, we will fully leverage the platform’s advantages in gathering, cultivating, and incubating functions to provide better and better entrepreneurship and innovation services and guarantees for entrepreneurs. In recent years, Wuxing District has introduced multiple support policies for science and technology innovation platforms, with a cumulative allocation of over 30 million yuan in urban subsidy funds. During the epidemic, the “double innovation” carriers in the entire district have reduced rent by 10.25 million yuan, effectively alleviating the operating burden of platform enterprises and maximizing the improvement of the innovation environment from the policy level.
