The new branch provides a more efficient, professional, and accessible platform for the commercialization and application of sci-tech achievements in the zone. As of Dec. 11, the branch had processed 390 technology-related patents, with a total listed value of 42.66 million yuan ($5.86 million). It has also facilitated 619 projects with a combined transaction value of 1.57 billion yuan.

Additionally, the inaugural Service Capability Listing and Technology Achievement Auction Fair, a sideline event of the Anhui Convergence of Business Startups and Innovation Initiatives, led to 101 transaction projects, valued at 1.03 billion yuan.

The institution has organized multiple exchange sessions with over 30 technology service enterprises, focusing on technology achievement transactions, large-scale trading events, technology broker training, and services for high-tech enterprises. These efforts have resulted in several technology projects from the zone being successfully listed.

Looking ahead, the zone will leverage its competitive resources, expand its connections, and conduct more business cooperation, event organization, and coordinated development, with a continued focus on addressing growth needs.
