Recalling the development and opening up of Pudong in 1992, Mr. Xie said that today's Lingang is of strategic significance for Shanghai to build a science and technology center with global influence. He said that the construction of the Global Cross-border Technology Trade Center is a major initiative launched in accordance with the "four requirements" and "five important" of General Secretary Xi to Shanghai, and is a strategic arrangement to connect the two ports and two markets. The combination of capital will make Lingang a global hub for innovation resources, innovation capital and innovation culture.

The goal of the Global Cross-border Technology Trade Center is to build a world-class cross-border technology trade hub that integrates five major service centers: technology trade, R&D, enterprise, finance and talent.

It is a hub platform for five major functions: protection, technology financing, training and exchange, and R&D piloting.
