On May 15, Mayor Wang Zilian met with BGI Group's Executive Director and COO Lu Jun and his delegation.

 

Wang Zilian said that, under the overarching strategy of implementing the three-year action plan for new breakthroughs in comprehensive revitalization, Changchun is moving faster to construct a modern industrial system characterized by "transformation of three traditional robust industries, advancement of four strategic emerging industries, and deployment of seven future industries", so as to enhance the competitiveness of the biomedicine and health industries. He hoped that BGI Group, building on existing cooperation, would seize the opportunities presented by the construction of Yongchun Modern Biomedical City and Beihu Future Science City and further deepen pragmatic cooperation in areas such as technological R&D, equipment updates, testing industrial market expansion, and industrial development, to better harness life science technologies for economic growth and public benefit. Changchun will establish a dedicated task force to provide comprehensive services.
