Beijing Economic‑Technological Development Area management committee issued
measures to accelerate an open‑source domestic IT industry hub, supporting
firms’ independent R&D in core hardware, basic software, industrial software and
cybersecurity. The plan prioritizes general‑purpose AI across foundational
theory and applications — including algorithms, software frameworks, AI compute
chips and new compute clusters, plus software, industrial, data and embodied
intelligence — and accelerates deployments in quantum computing, 6G,
brain‑computer interfaces and optoelectronics. Firms undertaking major tech
projects in these areas can receive up to 1:1 government matching funds, with
maximum annual support of 30 mln yuan per project.
