On the 20th, the State Council Information Office held a routine policy briefing for the State Council. Huazhong, the head of the Department of Utilizing Foreign Investment and Overseas Investment of the National Development and Reform Commission, stated at the meeting that the Commission is actively taking effective measures in conjunction with relevant departments to encourage and support foreign-funded enterprises to invest in China’s green economy, digital economy, and health industries, to walk with the Chinese market and share China’s super large market opportunities.
Measures to encourage foreign-funded enterprises to invest in China’s green economy
Firstly, carry out pilot projects for admission to relevant fields. The Action Plan for Solidly Promoting High level Opening up to the Outside World and Strengthening Attraction and Utilization of Foreign Investment points out that free trade pilot zones such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangdong are allowed to select a number of qualified foreign investment enterprises to conduct pilot projects in the development and application of genetic diagnosis and treatment technologies; Supporting measures to open up information services (limited to application stores) and other fields to better implement and achieve results in the pilot free trade zone. The National Development and Reform Commission will work with relevant departments to ensure the implementation of policies.
Secondly, strengthen services for major foreign-funded projects. In order to strengthen the implementation of major foreign-funded projects, the National Development and Reform Commission, together with relevant departments and provinces where the projects are located, has established a special working mechanism for major foreign-funded projects to coordinate and solve planning, approval, land and sea use, environmental impact assessment, energy consumption and other issues that require support from relevant departments. For green economy, digital economy, and health industry projects invested by foreign-funded enterprises, as long as they meet the conditions for major foreign-funded projects, the National Development and Reform Commission will promptly activate the special working mechanism, open up green channels through full lifecycle services, and promote the accelerated implementation of projects. As of the end of February this year, among the first seven batches of 51 major foreign-funded projects, multiple projects in the above-mentioned fields have already started construction and put into operation in China.
Finally, increase the support of relevant policies. In recent years, relevant departments of the country have successively issued a series of policy documents, including the “Green and Low Carbon Transformation Industry Guidance Catalogue (2024 Edition)”, “Data Element X” Three Year Action Plan (2024-2026) “, and” Opinions on Developing the Silver Economy and Enhancing the Welfare of the Elderly “. Corresponding financial and other support policies have been proposed for various types of enterprises, including foreign-funded enterprises, to invest in green economy, digital economy, and health industry. In addition, when revising the Catalogue of Industries Encouraging Foreign Investment, the National Development and Reform Commission also fully considered the needs of digital logistics, intelligent manufacturing, biopharmaceuticals, energy conservation and environmental protection, and other fields.
Empowering the medical industry with new quality productivity
“At present, there is still a significant gap in the supply of medical system and health management resources in China, making it difficult to match the growing demand for health consumption.” Recently, Dai Lizhong, a National People’s Congress representative and Chairman of Shengxiang Biotechnology, stated in an interview with Securities Daily that as the founder of a life technology enterprise, he remains highly concerned about how to overcome the pain points and difficulties in the existing medical system.
Dai Lizhong believes that after undergoing a major examination, China’s medical prevention and control system has achieved significant improvements in areas such as medical infrastructure construction, industrial technology innovation, big data intelligent innovation, and monitoring and prediction systems. In this context, integrating the digital and intelligent detection system of China’s in vitro diagnosis industry, exploring the “Internet plus+medical” home diagnosis and treatment mode, and strengthening the digital and intelligent upgrading of life technology industry can effectively use China’s existing high-quality resources to fully empower the medical industry with new quality productivity.
In terms of disease prevention, Dai Lizhong believes that cross system and interdisciplinary integration is needed to strengthen disease monitoring and data analysis capabilities. Specifically, he proposed suggestions from four aspects: firstly, encouraging the application of more innovative technologies in infectious disease monitoring and prediction; The second is to enhance the POCT nucleic acid testing capabilities, establish community/township level respiratory nucleic acid monitoring points, and improve the cooperation mechanism between communities, hospitals, medical consortia, and primary healthcare in monitoring and medical collaboration; The third is to digitize the existing nucleic acid testing capabilities, upgrade the information technology of infectious disease detection and monitoring, and establish a basic data source for the infectious disease monitoring system; The fourth is to promote the transformation of innovative technologies for infectious disease detection, monitoring, and prediction into industry, academia, and research, forming a globally leading infectious disease prevention and control system.
Dai Lizhong also put forward specific suggestions and measures on how to further give play to the advantages of “Internet plus medicine” from three aspects: encouraging innovative medical consumption supply to promote home self inspection diagnosis and treatment mode, promoting the standardization and normalization of Internet medical health detection services, and strengthening the popularization and promotion of Internet medical health detection services.
With regard to the precious life science and technology data accumulated by the disease prevention system and the “Internet plus+Medical” model, Dai Lizhong believes that we should further make good use of these data elements to build a new business model of smart medical services, and achieve national medical resource sharing and patient information sharing with the core of “benefiting the people’s livelihood”.
