The Meeting agreed that six National High-Tech Industrial Development Zones of Jinan, Qingdao (including the west coast area of Qingdao), Zibo, Weifang, Yantai and Weihai will build National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zones, and the regional scope will be the range of four boundaries of the construction site determined by the development zone review announcement published by the relevant departments of the State Council. According to the decision-making and deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, we should fully implement the innovation-driven development strategies, give full play to the advantages of the Shandong Peninsula region in gathering innovative resources, actively carry out the innovation policy for prior trial, stimulate the vitality of various innovative subjects, strive to foster a good environment for innovation and entrepreneurship, comprehensively enhance the overall efficiency of the regional innovation system, build a marine science and technology innovation center with global influence, and strive to build the Shandong Peninsula National High-tech Zone into an economic transformation and upgrading model zone, an innovation and entrepreneurship ecological model zone, an innovation pioneering zone for system and mechanism, and a two-way integration into the "the Belt and Road" test zone.
What does the demonstration zone demonstrate? Building a marine science and technology innovation center with global influence
The National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone refers to the zone approved by the State Council to make first experiments, explore experiences and make demonstrations in promoting independent innovation and high-tech industry development.
What will Shandong demonstrate in the Shandong Peninsula National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone which was successful approved for construction ?
In October last year, the relevant person in charge of the Shandong Science and Technology Department introduced that the Shandong Peninsula National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone, which was applied by Shandong for construction, consists of six national high-tech zones, including Jinan High-tech Zone and Qingdao High-tech Zone (including the west coast area of Qingdao), etc.. Its overall orientation is "an independent innovation demonstration zone with blue economy leading transformation and upgrading", and it will speed up the construction of "four zones and one center", namely, a global marine science and technology innovation center, an economic transformation and upgrading model zone, an innovation and entrepreneurship ecological demonstration zone, an innovation pioneering zone for system and mechanism and a two-way integration into the "the Belt and Road" test zone. At the same time, the full implementation of "reform of management on scientific research project fund" and "equity and dividend incentives" and other "6+1" national preferential policies will create favorable conditions for enhancing scientific and technological innovation capability of the region.
Relevant officials of the provincial science and technology department said that building a National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone based on the "6+1" carrier in Shandong peninsula is a concrete deployment to implement the innovation-driven development strategy and the "four enlargements and one exploitation" requirements of General Secretary Xi Jinping for Shandong. It is of great significance to comprehensively deepen the reform, promote the strategic adjustment of the economic structure of the whole province and even the whole country, and explore the innovation-driven development path.
Why are these six cities? More than 75 percent of the province's scientific and educational resources are concentrated here.
Shandong Peninsula, as the important urban agglomeration in northern China, is the leading region of economic and social development in Shandong Province. Jinan, Qingdao, Zibo, Weifang, Yantai and Weihai have contributed 54 percent of the province's GDP, gathered more than 75 percent of scientific and educational resources and achieved more than 70 percent of import and export value with about 40 percent of the province's area and population. They have explored and formed three typical development modes: regional central cities, coastal developed areas and old industrial bases. Jinan, Qingdao and other four national high-tech zones and Qingdao West Coast New Area are important platforms for local innovative economic development. After years of construction, they have formed solid industrial foundation and many other advantages, frequent innovative activities, flexible system and mechanism, and have a strong foundation to promote the overall jump of Shandong.
Wang Xiulin, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Vice Chairman of the Qingdao Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, said that the six cities currently have 103 colleges and universities, six national high-tech zones, 24 Distinctive Industrial Bases of State Torch Program, nine State Key Laboratories, eight National Engineering Laboratories, 17 National Engineering Technology Research Centers, and more than 2,100 national high-tech enterprises. In 2013, the whole society invested 21.63 billion yuan in research and development, accounting for 1.8% of the country's total. There are 14 national industrial technology innovation alliances, accounting for about one tenth of the country's total, 27 national International Scientific and Technological Cooperation Bases, five national intellectual property rights protection assistance platforms and four national patent technology display and trading platforms. "It has the advantages and foundation to set up a National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone."
Jinan High-tech Industrial Development Zone was completed in 1988 and upgraded to "national brand" in 1991. Zibo High-tech Industrial Development Zone was completed in 1992 and upgraded to "national brand" in 1992. Weifang High-tech Industrial Development Zone was completed in 1992 and upgraded to "national brand" in 1992. Yantai High-tech Industrial Development Zone was completed in 1990 and upgraded to "national brand" in 2010. Weihai Torch High-tech Industrial Development Zone was completed in 1991 and upgraded to "national brand" in 1991. Qingdao High-tech Industrial Development Zone was completed in 1992 and upgraded to "national brand" in 1992.

Highlights of Application for Demonstration Zone
On September 10, 2014, the provincial government submitted to the State Council the Request for Instructions on the Establishment of the National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone in Shandong Peninsula, proposing to set up the National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone in Shandong Peninsula with six national high-tech zones in Jinan City, Zibo City, Weifang City, Qingdao City, Yantai City and Weihai City as the main body the integration of scientific and technological innovation resources in six cities.
