On March 19, Luohu introduced 31 innovation scenarios across six key sectors, including industrial upgrades, technological innovation, and cultural tourism. The district also unveiled two major action plans to accelerate technology and scenario-driven innovation.

By 2026, Luohu aims to establish a comprehensive scenario innovation system, selecting at least 50 benchmark projects with high scalability, opening over 500 scenario opportunities, and supporting more than 1,000 enterprises specializing in new technologies and products.

To build a robust tech innovation ecosystem, Luohu is launching incubators offering up to three years of free rent for eligible startups and rental subsidies for growth-stage firms. The district will also introduce talent incentives, including customized support for top-tier teams, funding for entrepreneurial leaders, and employment subsidies for young professionals and interns. Additionally, a new 10 billion yuan industrial promotion fund will boost investments in emerging industries.

Luohu is also advancing scenario-driven innovation with 31 projects set for implementation in 2025. Plans include a passenger flight hub at the border area, digital yuan applications, AI-powered logistics, and smart retail solutions. The district will pioneer AI in pharmaceuticals, intelligent medical robotics, and low-altitude drone logistics while expanding smart city initiatives such as autonomous shuttles, AI-managed parks, and urban air mobility services.

To support the AI industry, Luohu is developing a computing power center and a data repository, integrating resources from the education and healthcare sectors to create a standardized, intelligent, and open data hub. The district will also introduce "computing vouchers" to lower AI firms' operational costs.

By combining policy incentives, cutting-edge infrastructure, and scenario-driven applications, Luohu aims to position itself as a premier innovation hub in the Greater Bay Area.
