East Lake High-tech Development Zone

East lake high-tech zone was established in 1988 to create, also known as "China optical valley", have been approved the first national high-tech zone, the second national independent innovation demonstration area, the experimental zone in wuhan (hubei province) free trade area, hubei industrial zone core area across the Taiwan straits, and approved by the state optoelectronic information industry base, national biological industry base, concentrated state construction talent base, the country's first double gen demonstration base, national storage base, is the national ten key construction of one of the "world-class high-tech park". The total planned area of the east lake high-tech zone is 518 square kilometers, with 8 streets under its jurisdiction and a permanent population of 1.66 million. It is home to 42 institutions of higher learning such as wuhan university and huazhong university of science and technology, 56 national and provincial scientific research institutes, 65 academicians of the Chinese academy of sciences and the Chinese academy of sciences, and more than 300,000 professional and technical personnel. It has built eight industrial clusters, including optical valley biological city, wuhan future science and technology city, east lake comprehensive bonded zone, optical valley optoelectronic information industry park, optical valley modern service industry park, optical valley intelligent manufacturing industry park, optical valley China science and technology industry park and optical valley central city. The east lake high-tech zone has formed a "5+2" industrial system dominated by five hundred billion industries, including optoelectronic information, life and health, energy conservation and environmental protection, high-end equipment manufacturing, high-tech services, and two emerging fields, namely integrated circuits, new display and digital economy. It has built the largest domestic optical fiber and cable production base, optical devices production base, the largest optical communication technology research and development base and the largest laser equipment production base, the world's first optical fiber and cable production scale, China optical valley has become China's participation in the global optoelectronic competition of the well-known brand.
