CHENGDU,China,June 14,2019 -- On the morning of June 12,2019 Chengdu GIEF City Opportunity List Release Conference,hosted by Chengdu Municipal People's Government,was held in the transaction hall of the first pavilion in the Conference and Exhibition Center of Chengdu Century City. The activity took "Focus on Chengdu and Link the World" as its theme and aimed at promoting and supporting the development of enterprises. Through the publication of the City Opportunity List,the application scenes,development opportunities and project cooperation turned into sensible and accessible city cooperation opportunities,which was beneficial for both cities and enterprises to seize the chances of global development and cooperation in time.

Background: Re-Understanding of the Application Scenarios

Since 2017,Chengdu has set developing a new economy to foster a new economic driving force as a key strategy for urban development and takes the lead in proposing an urban scene theory and forming gradually a series of new initiatives and new ideas around the "application scenario supply" to gather innovation wisdom,encourage entrepreneurial behavior,and stimulate creativity so as to facilitate the further liberation and development of social productive forces,and provide a continuous source of endogenous motivation and innovation for quality sustainable and healthy development of Chengdu. Constructing diversified urban application scenarios has become a new logic to promote the development of new economy. The scenario has three functions: The first is connection empowerment. Through the integration of offline and online scenes,dynamic matching of supply and demand can be improved. In addition,the service capabilities and competitiveness of enterprises can be enhanced due to the rapid feedback and network synergy. The second is cross-border symbiosis,which can breakindustrial boundaries,realize aggregation and sharing,mutual penetration and cross-border integration of various resources in the scene,and therefore promote the transition from survival competition to symbiotic development among enterprises. The third is to hatch and settle,which can provide a healthy market environment for innovation,offer enterprises proper commercial value to meet the needs of users and urban development,and promote the incubation of technological achievements.

Nowadays,Chengdu is accelerating the construction of a city that fully reflects the new development concept,and that promotes the construction of a national central city,an international hub city,a beautiful livable park city,and a global cultural city. It also has released a large number of needs and opportunities to achieve an organic link between commercial development and city opportunities.

In March this year,Chengdu first unleashed the first City Opportunity List,focusing on "7 application scenes + N expanded scenes",and changing the application scenes into sensible,visual and accessible city opportunities from the dimensions of planning and layout,infrastructure construction,resource factors supply,public products (services) and solutions. Additionally,Chengdu will actively release public resource elements with the method of setting projects,index and inventories,reducing bottlenecks such as unsatisfactory efficiency of scenarios supply,poor docking of supply and demand,and fragmentation of information,providing enterprises with new technologies,new organizations,new industries,and new practice of business mode,new chance of integration of innovation,which will in turn inject new momentum into economic growth. The "City Opportunities List" released this time will further link the future of new economy and urban development needs,providing global investors,enterprises and talents with access and opportunities in their development in Chengdu,and constantly inspiring the vitality,innovation and in-born power of urban development.
