In order to further guide and promote technological innovation in enterprises, the company takes the initiative to use the characteristic industry technology innovation promotion meeting as a platform and the innovation fund project as a link to find the driving force for the sustainable development of enterprises. It is committed to building a system for promoting industry university research cooperation, promoting the development of enterprises through technology, and striving to achieve new leaps for enterprises.
