Located in the core area of Nanning High-tech Zone, Nanning Zhongguancun Innovation Demonstration Base covers an area of 180 mu (12 hectares), with a total construction area of 80,000 square meters. It is composed of 13 European-style buildings. The overall goal of the base is to create an innovation hub for the Belt and Road, as well as form an innovative cluster consisting of Nanning, Zhongguancun, and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Nanning Zhongguancun Innovation Demonstration Base is an initiative of Beijing Zhongguancun Technology Park and Nanning, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region to implement an innovation-driven development strategy. It is also a successful case of coordinated innovation and common development in developed and less developed regions.

The cooperation between Zhongguancun and Nanning fully reflects the characteristics of complementary advantages and mutually beneficial cooperation. Nanning is an international channel for cooperating with ASEAN, as well as an important gateway for the Belt and Road. Zhongguancun is rich in innovation resources. The cooperation can help Zhongguancun enterprises strengthen cooperation with ASEAN countries and countries along the Belt and Road.

The base has initially built a regional cooperation model focusing on operations and services that will build an innovation ecosystem with local existing carriers and the output mechanism, brand, operation team, as well as innovation element resources of Zhongguancun.

To date, the base has introduced 57 new key enterprises, as well as attracted 90 new incubation and innovation teams, serving more than 30 colleges and universities in Guangxi. Four industrial micro-clusters have been initially formed in smart manufacturing, the new generation of information technology, health and life sciences, as well as science and technology services.

In addition, the base has accelerated the gathering of innovation elements in policy, capital, technology, and talents to build an attractive innovation ecosystem.
