Tongliang District of Chongqing City, widely known as the “Chinese Dragon Township”, is located in the intersection of the central region of West Chongqing and Sichuan-Chongqing Economic Belt. As a key area for coordinating the development of the Chengdu-Chongqing city cluster, it plays a critical role in the implementation of the development blueprint formulated as “two points positioning, two places and two highs objectives” and put forward for Chongqing by Xi Jinping, the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. As Tongliang continues to promote the development of industries, invest in innovation and technology, open further up to the outside world and prioritize ecological integrity, the district has evolved into a hotspot for investment from all over the world.

The Chongqing Tongliang Hi-tech Zone is gearing up to establish itself as a national-level high-tech zone. It enjoys a unique geographical advantage as it is only 30 kilometers away from the “Liangjiang New Area” and in the vicinity of a host of transportation nodes including the Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport, the departure station of Chongqing-Sinkiang-Europe International Railway, Xiyong National Free Trade Zone, Cuntan Harbour and the Orchard Harbour. This advantage is further complemented by the Suining-Shapingba Expressway, Chongqing-Chengdu Expressway, and Chongqing Third-ring Expressway, which all pass through the area, as well as other major transportation infrastructure projects under construction such as the Chengdu-Chongqing High-speed Railway and Chengyu Middle Line High-speed Railway.

In recent years, Tongliang has vigorously implemented the industrial revitalization initiative mainly driven by big data intelligence and focused on the development of a cluster of key industries including rail transit equipment, complete vehicle and spare parts, new energy and new materials, bio-medicine, intelligent manufacturing and ecological agricultural product processing. These six major industrial clusters have already established a development pattern of “one district and multiple parks”. Currently, Tongliang High-tech Zone is pushing ahead at full speed the development of the Liangjiang New Area’s Tongliang Collaborative Industrial Park, the Cross-border E-Commerce Comprehensive Pilot Zone and the Sichuan-Chongqing Cooperation Demonstration Zone, so as to promote the further integration of the Internet, big data, artificial intelligence sectors and the real economy. With a production capacity exceeding RMB200 billion, it has carved a spot among the ranks of national industrial transformation and upgrading demonstration zones and cyclic economy transformation parks, and risen to become a new model of reform and opening-up in inland China.

It has succeeded in attracting large numbers of high-caliber talents to invest or start businesses in the district by establishing a sound talent eco-system in which talents are highly valued, retained and provided with an environment to thrive.
