Competition Background
Riverfront New Pattern · Jiangnan City of Science
In the context of taking part in the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta and fostering new quality productive forces, the new round of development of Hangzhou metropolitan area will take science and technology innovation as the core driving force. Hangzhou proposed to build a new pattern of innovative development through the linkage of "Hangzhou Jiangnan City of Science + West Science and Technology Innovation Corridor + East Intelligent Manufacturing Corridor". Jiangnan City of Science has been listed as one of the key development sectors of Hangzhou city. As Hangzhou is striving to build a comprehensive national science center, taking the landing of the major national science and technology infrastructure "Ultra-Sensitive Extremely-Weak Magnetic Field and Inertial Measurement Device" as an opportunity, Hangzhou High-Tech Zone (Binjiang) is now planning the Hangzhou Jiangnan City of Science from a high starting point, to build a primary innovative cradle and lead the high-quality development of the area.
Jiangnan City of Science is located on the south bank of the Qiantang River. It is connected to the East Intelligent Manufacturing Corridor in the east, and is jointly developing with the Hangzhou Future Sci-Tech City in the north. Jiangnan City of Science is the key hub to complete the innovative development pattern in Hangzhou; it also has the spatial resources and ecological advantages for constructing the whole chain of "Science-Technology-Industry" innovative ecosystem.
Empowered by Science and Technology · Drive the Future
Under the high-quality ecological foundation of intertwined river networks, mountains, and shallow hills, the Riverfront Area of Jiangnan City of Science embraces a first line river view urban interface; it is also an important anchor point for extending the high-quality urban space along the Qiantang River to the south-west. The Riverfront Area has the potential to become the CBD of Jiangnan City of Science in the future, optimizing the technology finance, high-end business, and high quality commercial functions in the area. The area aims to attract the headquarters of science and technology enterprises, enhance the level of urban-science integration and the city image, and create a smart vitality belt on the bank of the Qiantang River.
In order to build "the Silicon Valley in Hangzhou" at a high level, accelerate the construction of Hangzhou High-Tech Zone (Binjiang) into a world-leading high-tech zone, and form the riverfront gateway of Jiangnan City of Science, the International Competition for Implementation-Oriented Urban Design and Conceptual Architectural Design of the Riverfront Area of Hangzhou Jiangnan City of Science is now officially open for application.
