It is learned from Ningbo Foreign Experts Bureau that by June this year, Ningbo have introduced 1216 overseas engineers, who have helped related enterprises to apply for 4055 patents and developed 13371 new products, leading to a direct added output value of over 26.4 billion yuan and a direct added tax revenue of 2.1 billion yuan.

What is important to note is that Ningbo has implemented a series of policies to attract the foreign experts. Since 2010, Ningbo has taken the lead in China to encourage enterprises to attract overseas engineers. An annual grant of up to 600,000 yuan has helped to accelerate the introduction of overseas experts. The CSMT Center, a new type of intelligence-introducing platform has been established to attract foreign expert teams on a large scale and realize the face-to-face docking of the regional industries. The Old Bund area has been built as the "international talent community", setting up a comfortable living environment for the foreign experts working in Ningbo.
