The business revenue of the high-tech industry in Hangzhou in Q1 amounted to 183.94 billion yuan, a rise of 13.5 percent year-on-year.

Analysts attributed the growth to Hangzhou’s steady economic performance and the city’s input of R&D resources.

To provide better services for high-tech firms, Hangzhou has developed a digital platform where tech firms can access services conveniently. To date, 452 maker spaces and incubators have registered as users of the platform, which provides services to 16,000 companies.

Hangzhou currently has 12 high-tech industrial parks. Two of them are national-level parks and two are provincial-level ones.
