The Beijing Economic and Technological Development Area, also called Beijing E-Town, developed 211 new products and technologies in 2022, many of which have filled domestic gaps, an official said during the 2023 ZGC forum held this week.
Enterprises in the area currently hold 14,686 invention patents, an increase of 27.9 percent compared with the level in 2021. The number of national-level high-tech enterprises in the area has reached 1,868.
Beijing E-Town has been supporting enterprises with favorable polices and industrial services. The number of companies in the key industrial sectors including information technology, new energy vehicles, robots, artificial intelligence, biotechnology and health, reached 87, leading the national economic and technological development areas in the country.
One company's intelligent augmented reality glasses are equipped with voice recognition technology, "which make it efficient and accurate for users", said Zhang Hongda of Beijing LLVision Technology Co, which is showing products and technologies at the exhibition.
"The intelligent AR glasses can solve the communication problems for the hearing impaired people by converting voice signals into subtitles on the glasses. They can also provide translation functions for people who travel to other countries," Zhang said.
Beijing E-Town has been supporting the business environment, establishing ecological innovation platforms for science and innovation enterprises and improving financial services in the technology industry to achieve high-quality development.
