Jiangsu introduced a blockchain industry development action plan, and experts say its development prospects will be brighter

Jiangsu Province has always attached great importance to the blockchain industry. Previously, it has issued a number of blockchain-related policies to promote the development of the blockchain industry.

Recently, Jiangsu Province has further issued the “Jiangsu Province Blockchain Industry Development Action Plan” (hereinafter referred to as the “Action Plan”) to clarify the development goals of the blockchain industry, accelerate the development of blockchain technology and industrial innovation, and vigorously promote the block Chain and economic and social integration and development.

Chen Xiaohua, a review expert on major industrial Internet blockchain projects of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and chairman of the China Mobile Communications Federation’s Blockchain Professional Committee, said in an interview with reporters that nowadays, blockchain technology has risen to a country that promotes industrial upgrading and economic transformation. strategy. Beijing, Hebei, Zhejiang and other provinces and cities have successively issued special policy documents for blockchain, stipulating specific industrial policies and development plans with local characteristics, and the same is true for Jiangsu Province.

According to data from the “Blockchain House” of the National Computer Network Emergency Technology Processing and Coordination Center, there are currently more than 2,000 blockchain-related companies in Jiangsu Province, more than 70 blockchain projects, and the number of blockchain patents is also in the forefront.

The Action Plan further clarified the development goals of the blockchain industry in Jiangsu Province. By 2023, the average annual growth rate of the blockchain industry will not be less than 15%, cultivate more than 10 backbone enterprises with national influence, build more than 10 blockchain innovation service platforms, and form a “1+3+N” “Industrial layout, namely striving to create a national-level blockchain development pilot zone, three provincial-level blockchain industry development clusters, and several blockchain technology innovation application pilot zones.

In the longer term, by 2025, the scale of the blockchain industry in Jiangsu Province will reach a new level, the core competitiveness will be further enhanced, the public service system will be more complete, and the industrial ecology will be more complete. Jiangsu Province will become a highland for the innovation and development of blockchain technology. Concentrated development highlands and integrated application demonstration highlands are further highlighted.

After sorting out, the reporter found that the realization of this development goal is mainly implemented in three aspects.

The first is to consolidate the industrial foundation and promote innovative development. The main measures include the construction of a new blockchain-based infrastructure; with scenario requirements as the traction, to achieve group technological breakthroughs in the integration of blockchain, big data, cloud computing and other applications, and achieve integration Integrated innovation; accelerate the development and promotion of the development and application of standards for key technology systems and products in the basic technical specifications of blockchain, digital currency, Internet of Things, etc.; build industry incubation, education and training, qualification certification and other blockchain innovation service platforms.

The second is to optimize the industrial ecology and accelerate the development of agglomeration. The main measures are to build a blockchain industry system and cultivate a group of leading blockchain companies with national influence; build an industrial agglomeration carrier and strengthen the construction of industrial carriers; targeted implementation Strengthen the chain, promote the formation of a blockchain industry system that relies on cloud computing, big data and other information technology development foundations and closely follows the development of the real economy; improve the public service system, and guide the development of the blockchain industry in an orderly manner.

The third is to deepen integrated applications and drive industrial development. The main measures include cultivating a group of blockchain-based overall solution providers in the fields of government affairs, social governance, and finance, and creating a group of excellent products and solutions; Based on the block chain, actively build a data ecology with credible data as elements, strive to open up government, regional, and industrial boundaries, and continue to promote the credible digitization of various entities and businesses; strengthen the foundation of the digital economy and continue to promote the development of the digital economy. The application of blockchain technology creates demand, etc.

In an interview with reporters, Soyun Technology CMO Yang Zhiping said that consolidating the industrial foundation, optimizing the industrial ecology, and deepening the integrated application are actually different stages of promoting the blockchain industry, from shallow to deep. On the whole, the direction of Jiangsu Province to promote the development of the blockchain industry is correct.

She further stated, “The industry chain is mentioned many times in the document. In fact, it is to dig deep into the application scenarios of an industry, use blockchain technology to support this industry, solve its pain points and optimize it. This is the blockchain technology. Where the value lies.”

“From the content point of view: the goals are clearer, the indicators are more detailed, and the strategy has a direction.” Chen Xiaohua told reporters, “At the same time, Jiangsu Province has a good blockchain industry and talent base. With the implementation of this “Action Plan” Announced, the development prospects of the block chain industry in Jiangsu Province will be brighter. The development of local block chain technology will be more pragmatic, integrate with the industry, empower the real economy, give full play to the local economic and regional value, and contribute to the future block chain of Jiangsu Province. The industry and offline development lay the foundation, and it is expected to become the first echelon demonstration province in the country with the same advantages as Beijing, Zhejiang, and Guangdong.”

In fact, Jiangsu Province attaches great importance to the development of the blockchain industry.

In the 2020 government work report, Jiangsu Province proposed to focus on fostering and expanding the “three new” economy, and strengthen technological innovation and industrial applications such as artificial intelligence, big data, and blockchain. Vigorously develop the digital economy, and add new momentum to high-quality development with new industries (169.800, -2.85, -1.65%), new business formats, and new models.

In June this year, Jiangsu Province issued the “Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Blockchain Technology and Industrial Innovation.” The “Guiding Opinions” focus on improving the innovation capability of blockchain technology, and promote the deep integration of blockchain and the real economy as an important starting point. It provides a comprehensive review of blockchain technology in Jiangsu Province in terms of technology research and development, industry cultivation, and typical applications. System deployment is made for industrial development, focusing on building a complete industrial chain and high-end industrial cluster covering core technologies, key systems, supporting platforms and integrated applications.

In terms of blockchain support policies, in July, Xiangcheng District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province issued “Several Support Policies for the Agglomeration and Development of Blockchain Industry in Xiangcheng District, Suzhou City”. The policy introduces 24 specific support measures from 9 aspects including settlement subsidies, business rewards, platform rewards, application support, and talent subsidies. For example, a maximum of 8 million yuan will be awarded to blockchain companies that have successfully listed in the country; Leading talents in blockchain can enjoy a resettlement subsidy of up to 3 million yuan.

In terms of the promotion of blockchain applications, in September, the blockchain business platform of the Jiangsu Equity Exchange Center successfully connected with the CSRC’s regulatory blockchain, becoming the first after the CSRC approved the pilot project for blockchain construction in the regional equity market. A pilot unit that realizes connectivity with the CSRC’s chain of custody business.

“The introduction of the blockchain support policy has opened a window for companies engaged in the blockchain industry.” Xiang Lipeng, head of the blockchain innovation team and senior engineer of the Fifth Institute of Electronics, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology In an interview with reporters, he said, “The implementation of supporting policies, ecological cultivation, project demonstration, and talent support, etc., have played a vital role in whether the industry can open up a path.”
