The Mianyang Economic and Technological Development Zone is located in Mianyang—China’s only “Science and Technology City,” the second-largest city in Sichuan Province, and the third-largest economy in the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle. Established in August 2000 and upgraded to a national-level economic and technological development zone in October of the same year, it serves as the southern main urban area of Mianyang.The zone covers a total area of 65 square kilometers, with 45 square kilometers included in the urban control plan and 26 square kilometers of built-up area. It has a population of nearly 200,000 and comprises Tangxun Subdistrict and Songya Town.Mianyang Economic and Technological Development Zone is an Outstanding Industrial Park of Sichuan Province, a Provincial Demonstration Base for New-Type Industry, and a pilot zone for the construction of ecological industrial parks in Sichuan. In April 2022, it was successfully designated as a provincial-level chemical industrial park. It currently hosts Sichuan’s first connector industry cluster and is a “Demonstration Zone for Advanced Manufacturing in Western China” currently undergoing accelerated development.

(1) Mianyang Economic and Technological Development Zone boasts a robust innovation system and an exceptional entrepreneurial environment.
Mianyang is embarking on a new journey with the fresh mission of building a National Pilot Demonstration Zone for Science and Technology Innovation. Concurrently, the Mianyang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have entrusted the Mianyang Economic and Technological Development Zone with the honorable mission of “leading scientific and technological innovation through the development of high-end industries.” With 934 technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises, 54 science and technology innovation platforms, and one million square meters of co-working spaces, the zone supports the development of scientific and technological innovation and empowers entrepreneurs to forge ahead.

Mianyang Economic and Technological Development Zone offers ample resource support, with over 6,000 mu of available land within its jurisdiction. This includes 440 mu of commercial land designated for the development of commercial residential buildings and mixed-use complexes, and 5,580 mu of industrial land.Approximately 1,355 mu of Class I industrial land is located near residential areas, effectively addressing corporate labor recruitment and employee housing needs; approximately 2,465 mu of Class II industrial land is adjacent to industry-leading companies such as Dongcai Technology and Hongke Innovation; and approximately 1,760 mu of Class III industrial land is situated near chemical industry leaders such as Lier Chemical and Meifeng Technology.The district has already constructed 350,000 square meters of standard factory buildings, including the Electronics Manufacturing Industrial Park and the Advanced Manufacturing Service Center. Construction is currently accelerating on over 600,000 square meters of standard factory buildings for projects such as the Smart Home Industrial Park and the Biopharmaceutical Industrial Park. By the end of 2024, the total area of standard factory buildings in the district is expected to exceed 2 million square meters. The park boasts ample supplies of water, electricity, and gas, as well as significant advantages in human resources and other resources. Its infrastructure is comprehensive, featuring a road network backbone, water supply and drainage systems, gas, electricity, telecommunications, and 5G networks.

In 2022, Hongke Innovation, a local enterprise, was honored as a national “Smart Manufacturing Demonstration Factory” and a “Sichuan Green Factory.” Tianxuan Valves and Shuwang New Energy were recognized as “Little Giants” under the Specialized, Refined, Distinctive, and Innovative (SRDI) initiative, while Changhong Power Supply and Xuebao Dairy were listed among Sichuan’s SRDI SMEs. It can be said that choosing Mianyang means seizing the initiative in innovative development and gaining a head start from the very beginning.
