According to Qin Jianguo, Vice President of the Hebei Industrial Technology Research Institute, in order to deeply implement the project-driven strategy, promote the landing of high-quality technological projects from outside the province in Hebei, and strengthen the innovative increment of Hebei, the "Tech Innovation Convergence" series of events was jointly planned and hosted by the Hebei Industrial Technology Research Institute and Zhejiang Saichuang Future. This initiative serves as a technology investment service platform aimed at introducing and nurturing high-value scientific and technological achievements, high-level talent teams, and high-growth technology innovation enterprises in Hebei. It focuses on selecting high-quality technology innovation projects that are highly compatible with Hebei's industrial base and have a strong willingness to settle in Hebei. These projects are regularly released to high-tech zones, other functional parks, and cooperative investment institutions across the province to facilitate project landing and transformation.

It is understood that the "Tech Innovation Convergence" relies on the standardized evaluation and assessment introduced by the Hebei Industrial Technology Research Institute, as well as the screening criteria that align with project introduction and landing. It selects projects suitable for Hebei from high-quality project resource pools such as past National Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competitions, the National Hundred, Thousand, and Ten Thousand Talents Project, overseas incubators, and Maker China. The initiative strives to ensure that projects are "findable, accurately screened, able to land, and stable." Currently, a batch of high-growth, technologically leading, and strongly willing off-site high-quality technology innovation projects have been selected.

Tian Chong, Head of Investment Promotion and Industrial Innovation at the Hebei Industrial Technology Research Institute, Chen Jianmin, former President of the Hebei Mechanical Science Research and Design Institute, Cao Hongzhi, Chairman of Shijiazhuang Technology Venture Capital Co., Ltd., and Zou Xiaoli, General Manager of Saichuang Future (Hebei) Entrepreneurship Service Co., Ltd., served as recommendation guests for this event. These four experts from the fields of technology and venture capital provided insightful analysis and commentary on team quality, technical indicators, economic indicators, and investment factors, and made corresponding recommendations, laying a solid foundation for further promoting the landing and transformation of projects within the province.
