The Qianhai Cooperation Zone Authority allocated over 54 million yuan (US$7.72 million) in subsidies to five high-tech projects of four companies at a conference held at the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Innovation Center on July 17.
The companies that received the fund are CIMC Marine Engineering Co. Ltd., Shenzhen Qianhai Zhongziqi Internet Financial Services Co. Ltd., HKUST R and D Corp. (Shenzhen) Ltd., and Shenzhen Richlink Capital Equity Investment and Fund Management Co. Ltd.
Last year, the Qianhai authority established a special fund for the development of innovation and entrepreneurship carriers, providing financial subsidies for qualified enterprises on a yearly basis.
A senior official with the Qianhai authority said at the conference that Qianhai aims to consolidate and improve its innovation and entrepreneurship ecology and realize an innovation-driven development momentum through the fund.
In the future, Qianhai will roll out more favorable policies to boost technological innovation and will further reform the talent introduction mechanism, so as to build Qianhai into an international technological innovation center and a place of origin of emerging industries in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA).
According to official statistics, as of last year, the number of sci-tech and innovative enterprises registered in Qianhai was 75,600, accounting for 47.45 percent of all companies in Qianhai. A total of 15,374 patent applications had been submitted by Qianhai enterprises.
In addition, Qianhai has been home to 11 unicorn companies, accounting for 39.29 percent and 25 percent of the total in Shenzhen and the GBA, respectively.
