2026-04-07
On April 1, Guangzhou Huigu New Materials Science & Technology Co., Ltd. officially listed on the ChiNext board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. With this addition, the cumulative number of listed companies in the Guangzhou Development District and Huangpu District has reached 93. This figure ranks first in Guangzhou and tops all national-level economic and technological development zones in China, allowing the district to continue leading capital market development in this category. In recent years, the Guangzhou Development District and Huangpu District have prioritized new materials as a strategic emerging industry. Through supportive policies such as the "30 Measures for New Quality Productive Forces" and the "10 Financial Measures," the local government has provided robust backing for technological upgrades, capacity expansion, and land acquisition. This support has enabled Huigu to establish innovation platforms, including a provincial-level enterprise technology center, accelerating its growth into a national "Little Giant" enterprise and a National Manufacturing Single Champion. Moving forward, the district plans to deepen its "Enterprise Listing Nursery Project." This initiative will accelerate the listing process for applicant companies, strengthen the cultivation of reserve candidates, and expedite the implementation and tangible results of fundraising and investment projects. Furthermore, the district will promote orderly mergers and acquisitions, enhancing the synergy between the capital and industrial chains. Ultimately, these efforts aim to better leverage the role of high-quality listed companies in driving industrial upgrading and high-quality economic development.

2026-03-24
On March 20, the "Smart Bay Area · OpenHarmony Navigating Forward" Guangdong OpenHarmony Ecosystem and Guangzhou Intelligent Software Development Conference was held in Guangzhou Development District and Huangpu District. At the event, the Guangdong Provincial OpenHarmony Adaptation Center (hereinafter referred to as the "Provincial Adaptation Center") was officially inaugurated and began operations in the district. The Provincial Adaptation Center is the only full-stack OpenHarmony industrial collaboration hub approved by the Guangdong Provincial Government. It follows a "one center, three bases" layout, with its headquarters and Guangzhou base located in Huangpu, while coordinating with bases in Dongguan and Foshan. With a total investment of 100 million yuan, it is positioned as a public service platform operating on a nonprofit public-interest basis with enterprise-driven management. Leveraging the Provincial Adaptation Center as a platform, the district will build the province's first OpenHarmony innovation demonstration zone, with a focus on nine key sectors. In the field of traffic management, a traffic signal controller developed by local enterprise PCITECH, based on the "Jiahong Traffic" operating system, has become the first product to receive an OpenHarmony ecosystem adaptation certification from the Provincial Adaptation Center. The operational framework of the Provincial Adaptation Center is clear and purposeful. A Technical Steering Committee (TSC) will chart the overall technological direction; joint industry laboratories will drive deep development in vertical sectors; and a network of municipal–district sub-centers and innovation hubs will be established to expand the OpenHarmony ecosystem. Together, these efforts will form a replicable model for ecosystem development — providing standardized solutions, a reserve of technical talent, and a platform for collaborative industrial innovation to support the nationwide growth of the OpenHarmony ecosystem. At the conference, Guangzhou Intelligent Software Valley — the city's first intelligent agent industrial park — was officially unveiled, marking a significant step forward for Huangpu District in intelligent software and artificial intelligence.
