By hannover-web.com On October 22, in Beijing, a reporter named Li Xinping learned from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) that during the first three quarters of this year, central enterprises have significantly increased their resource investments in strategic emerging industries. The total investment reached 1.4 trillion yuan, marking a year-on-year growth of 17.6%, which accounts for nearly 40% of the overall investment scale. These investments are primarily directed towards sectors such as next-generation information technology, artificial intelligence, aerospace, renewable energy, advanced materials, high-end equipment, biomedicine, and quantum technology.
Strategic emerging industries represent the direction of a new wave of technological revolution and industrial transformation. They are key areas for the country to cultivate new growth drivers and build future advantages. To promote this, the SASAC has initiated actions to revitalize central enterprises and kick-start future industries, actively researching and implementing a package of support policies, and preparing to establish specialized funds to encourage central enterprises to accelerate their layout and development in strategic emerging industries.
In recent years, central enterprises have made significant progress in laying the groundwork for strategic emerging industries. Data shows that from 2018 to 2023, the scale of investment in these sectors has surged from 700 billion yuan to 2.18 trillion yuan, with the proportion of total investments increasing from 12.8% to 35.2%. This represents a growth of 204.8%, with an average annual growth rate of 24.97%, effectively driving upgrades in industrial structure and the integration of industrial chains.
Currently, the development of strategic emerging industries in China is at a critical juncture, aiming to seize leading positions and make higher advancements. According to a relevant official from the SASAC, the agency will continue to refine the nurturing mechanisms for emerging industries, optimize support policies, and push for the implementation of significant achievements, ultimately fostering new industries, models, and growth drivers.
