China´s Shandong invites overseas Chinese students to start business

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 28 (Bernama) -- Shandong - a coastal province in eastern China - is welcoming overseas-educated Chinese students home to start their own businesses.

Governor of Shandong, Gong Zheng in his invitation said Shandong - with 145 universities and colleges -- firmly believes that while development is the top priority, talents are the most important resources and innovation is the premier driving force.

To attract more overseas-educated scholars to Shandong, the 10th China Shandong Domestic and Overseas High-end Talents Exchange Fair is slated on 29 to 31 October in Weihai, Shandong.The fair has been held for 9 sessions in a row, a statement said.

With themed "Gathering global talents, promoting quality development", the fair is expected to be a diversified, specialized and well-targeted international event that encompasses factors including talents, ideas, projects, technologies and financial capital.

“We work unremittingly to improve the policies for recruitment, training and use of talents, and upgrade the relevant mechanism and institution so that Shandong can become a fertile ground for talents,” he said in the invitation.

As a platform connecting Shandong with domestic and overseas high-caliber professionals and projects, the event offers an important opportunity for talents across the world to get to know, come and participate in the development of the province.

Shandong is also expected to set an example for rural revitalization, give higher priority to marine industry, and serve as a powerhouse for opening up. Acting upon the important instructions of Chinese General Secretary Xi, Shandong is implementing the major program to foster new drivers of growth and build a modernized economic system with focus on high quality development and supply-side structural reform.

Shandong accounts for nearly 1/10 of the GDP, 1/8 of the industrial output and 1/4 of the agricultural export of China.

In 2017, the GDP of Shandong reached 7.27 trillion yuan; general budget revenue topped 600 billion yuan; foreign trade was nearly 1 trillion yuan; the number of market entities exceeded 8 million. (1 yuan = RM0.60)
