Guiyang Economic and Technological Development Zone (GETDZ) is currently moving from strength to strength -- fulfilling its development vision and strategy, according to zone officials.

The dynamic GETDZ -- located in Guiyang, capital city of southwestern Guizhou province -- has made every effort to attract investment to its leading industries, they said.

To date, 10.92 billion yuan ($1.55 billion) has been invested in newly introduced industrial projects in the GETDZ, accounting for 91 percent of the annual investment target.

The zone, officials said, recently signed off on 44 new industrial projects -- accounting for 88 percent of its annual target, according to local media reports on Nov 11.

Since the start of the year, the zone has identified various industries that meet its development criteria -- with the help of various platforms such as the 2019 China International Big Data Industry Expo and China International Import Expo.

The targeted sectors include industrial robots, medical devices, big data security terminals, and intelligent sensors.

Officials said at the same time, the top GETDZ executives took the lead in attracting investment.

In the current year some 76 investment promotion surveys were carried out. The zone also staged 169 investment promotion conferences and 26 investment promotion activities in key areas.

Officials said they successively managed to attract major industrial projects such as the Guiyang Inspur Big Data Industrial Park and the Shenzhen Zhuoneng new energy lithium-ion power battery project.
