CHENGDU, China<\/span>, Oct. 22, 2021<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Chengdu<\/span>, capital of Southwest China’s<\/span> Sichuan<\/span> province, is accelerating its development driven by technological innovation thanks to the Chengdu Science and Technology Bureau.<\/p>\n

Qitan Tech, founded in Chengdu<\/span> in 2016, is in the DNA sequencing business. Through years of research and development, the company has launched China’s<\/span> first nanopore-based single molecule gene sequencer.<\/p>\n

Different from the mainstream next-generation sequencing technology, it has broad prospects for future applications due to its advantages of long-read capability, portability, direct-sequencing ability and the real-time output of results.<\/p>\n

“The application scenarios of the nanopore-based sequencing technology are manifold and beyond our imagination,” said Xie Dan<\/span>, one of the founders of Qitan Tech.<\/p>\n

In the area of public health, the technology is helpful because of its small size. This helps end the dependence on laboratory-based testing. Testers can be brought to the frontline at anytime and anyplace to solve problems.<\/p>\n

“As a company engaged in biomedicine, the benefits brought by Chengdu’s<\/span> industry supporting facilities and business environment are clear,” Xie said. He added that Chengdu Science and Technology Bureau is continually improving the business-support system, so that startups can focus on their R&D.<\/p>\n

Another Chengdu<\/span> company said it will bring an on-demand “special air bus” into public life to solve travel problems in big cities.<\/p>\n

On Sept 22<\/span>, urban air traffic pioneer Volocopter joined hands with Aerofugia – a subsidiary of Geely that is engaged in unmanned aerial vehicles – and launched a joint venture in the Chengdu Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone.<\/p>\n

The joint venture will be responsible for the production and market operation of Volocopter’s products in China<\/span>. It plans to help launch urban air transport within three to five years. Chengdu<\/span> will be one of the first cities to test the project.<\/p>\n

In addition to the two innovation-driven companies, there are a handful of similar enterprises in Chengdu<\/span>, as the city is making every effort to boost high-level scientific and technological innovation.<\/p>\n

In 2020, there were 62 city-level and above technology business incubators and spaces launched, with some 6,000 high-tech enterprises registered in total. The revenue of the city’s high-tech industry has hit a 1-trillion-yuan<\/span> ($154.5 billion<\/span>) scale.<\/p>\n

The city government is rolling out policies for the construction of the Chengdu-Chongqing Twin-City Economic Circle. It hopes to build itself into a national-level scientific and technological innovation center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
