The Cross-Strait Information Appliance Industry Park settled in Huai’an

At the main forum of the 10th Taiwan Business Forum, the Cross-Strait Information Appliance Industry Park was grandly inaugurated and marked The mainland’s first cross-strait information appliance industrial park officially settled in Huai’an. It is understood that in June this year, the Cross-Strait Entrepreneurs Summit formally agreed to establish a Cross-Strait Information Appliance Industrial Park in Huai'an. Its establishment has further boosted Huai’an’s high-end talent gathering, high-tech innovation, and high-value-added electronic information industry chain, promoted the integrated development of cross-strait electronic information industries, and added a new platform for Huai’an to build a Taiwan-funded highland. New momentum. As CCTV special commentator Yang Yu said: “This is another result of the integration and development of the two sides of the strait under the new situation, and it has also injected new connotations into the construction of the Taiwan-funded highland in Huai’an.” In recent years, the development of the information appliance industry in our city has entered. Fast lane. With Foxconn, Zhending Technology, BenQ Darfon Electronics, Minth Electric Vehicles and other leading companies in the world’s top 500 or information appliance industry settled in the development zone, the information appliance industry has gradually emerged, the industrial structure has been continuously upgraded, and the computer has gradually formed The relatively complete information appliance industry chain, such as connectors, displays, keyboards, electronic components, PCB multilayer circuit boards, and smart TV sets, has developed into one of the city's four leading industries.
