Science park reps set to gather in capital

Thanks to its rich resources in terms of talent, capital and markets, Beijing's Zhongguancun has been selected for a third time to host the annual conference of the International Association of Science Parks in 2015.

With the advent of globalization, the world "has marched into a period characterized by revolutions of technologies and industries", said Zhou Guolin, deputy director-general of Zhongguancun's administrative committee. "Cooperation in technology has become an essential solution for all countries to improve their innovative capacity."

"The annual conference will not only serve as an opportunity to promote Zhongguancun and boost international cooperation but also display a full picture of the world's science parks," he said.
