Competitive Edges of TEDA
Geographic Location and Industrial Chains Located in the center of the circum-Bohai economic circle and supported by Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province, TEDA is adjacent to Tianjin port and serves circum-Bohai region, providing access to the market of North China, Central North China and Northeast China and even the northeast Asian market. It has developed the most complete electronics industrial chain in North China.
HR and R&D There are 59 institutions of higher learning and 183 vocational and technical schools in Tianjin, which offer ten of thousands of electronics and information graduates and millions of high quality workers.
Infrastructure Facilities China's first-grade energy supply systems for water, electricity, gas, heat, etc. and various standard factory buildings in TEDA ensure that investors can start production in the same year when they make investments.
Services In accordance with its guiding principles that "Investors are kings" and "Helping investors with profit making", TEDA not only provides one-stop service which includes the reception of market tours, advice on investment plans, the examination and approval of the establishment of companies but also offers professional services on HR, production operations, bonded warehousing, electronics custom clearance, etc.
Policies As the kernel part of the TBNA, TEDA enjoys the various incentive policies for the pilot operations in the national comprehensive supportive reform.
Industrial Basis A national electronics and telecommunication industrial base, TEDA has attracted industrial clusters of mobile communication, displays, auto electronics, electronics parts and components, home audio and video equipment, etc. and developed a solid industrial basis.
Plan and Goals
-- Orientation To build up six industrial bases for telecommunication equipment, new consumer electronics products, new parts and components, TFT-LCDs, auto electronics, and optoelectronics components.
-- Goal By 2015 the total industrial output value of the electronics and telecommunication industry will be doubled to over 320 billion yuan in TEDA.
-- Focus areas Communications equipment, new electronic components, new consumer electronics, TFT-LCD, car electronics and optoelectronics.
