Nanjing Economic and Technological Development Zone (南京经济技术开发区) was set up in September 1992 and became a national economic and technological development zone in 2002. Located in the northeast of Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu province, the zone is divided into four areas: Xingang, Qixia, Longtan and a liquid crystal valley.

By the end of 2017, the zone covered 200 square kilometers, featuring four function areas: industry, bonded warehouses, financial trade and comprehensive service.

Three competitive industries – optical display, high-end equipment and biopharmacy – contribute significantly to the development of the area, with an output value of nearly 300 billion yuan ($43.2 billion). Its optical display output value accounts for 70 percent of the Nanjing market.

In the first nine months of 2018, the Nanjing zone achieved a regional GDP of 53.7 billion yuan, including an industrial added value of 42.9 billion yuan.

The actual foreign capital of the first nine months of 2018 was $500 million and the total import and export volume of service trade was $498 million.

The overall strength of the development zone ranked in the top 10 among the 219 State-level development zones announced by the Ministry of Commerce in 2017. The ranking was due to its five advantages and achievements.

The output value per unit of land in the development zone ranks in the forefront of national development zones.

Third, the leading industries in the zone, including photoelectric display, high-end equipment manufacturing, and biological medicine, have formed industrial clusters. Photoelectric display industrial scale has reached 200 billion yuan, gathering more than 70 well-known domestic and overseas companies, including Nanjing Panda Electronics Co Ltd and LG Electronics Nanjing Display Co Ltd.

The output value of the high-end equipment manufacturing industry totaled 80 billion yuan, with more than 50 famous companies gathering in the zone, such as BOSCH and Baiyun Power Group.

The zone is also developing anew energy vehicle and artificial intelligence industries.
