It will invite over 50 industrial leaders and capital tycoons as mentors to conduct overall and targeted instructions for the new entrepreneurs, and aim to improve the entrepreneurial capacity of the entrepreneurs by setting up the venture resource platforms based on the industrial transformation and upgrading conditions in Ningbo.

And in the meantime, we will cultivate, introduce and incubate a group of high-tech enterprises with leading technologies and innovative models, to create the entrepreneurial and innovative atmosphere in Ningbo." said a related person in charge from the institute.
