The efforts to improve the business environment in the Hefei National High-Tech Industry Development Zone in Hefei, the capital of East China's Anhui province, have yielded positive results.

The high-tech zone has been focusing on key areas and critical processes in the construction industry. It has also implemented reforms that combine regulation and services. These innovative moves have resulted in its construction industry achieving a growth rate of 12.3 percent in the first half of the year, with a total output value of 32.92 billion yuan ($4.53 billion).

Measures such as nurturing and optimizing key projects, enhancing digital intelligence, providing beneficial services to enterprises, and removing business obstacles have been implemented to support and facilitate the zone's business development.

To attract top construction companies and promote sustainable growth in the construction industry, the high-tech zone has implemented multiple innovative measures. It also actively engages with high-quality enterprises, especially those with a broad market presence, promising prospects and strong leadership.

The zone provides detailed explanations of its policies regarding buildings, taxation, and talent acquisition. It also collaborates with industry platforms to ensure smooth communication with enterprises and to optimize its overall business environment.

The zone's "project managers" have been assigned the task of tailoring plans and ensuring comprehensive assistance from the project's initiation all the way to its completed construction.
