Looking at the growth history of my country (Tianjin) Pilot Free Trade Zone, the first free trade zone in northern China, the establishment of the Joint Innovation Zone is undoubtedly a highlight. In August 2021, China (Tianjin) Pilot Free Trade Zone Binhai High-tech Zone linkage Innovation Zone was established. Over the past few years, Binhai High-tech Zone has given full play to the role of the "experimental field" for reform and innovation in the Pilot Free Trade Zone and the demonstration and leading "bridgehead" of the National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone to build a new development pattern of "dual-autonomous linkage" and "two-wheel drive" through technological innovation and institutional innovation. "The development model supports the free trade pilot zone and the national independent innovation demonstration zone to achieve policy interaction, advantage superposition, joint development, and two-way spillover, injecting strong momentum into accelerating the creation of an important source of my country's independent innovation and the main source of original innovation.
Improve the working mechanism of free trade linkage
If you want to develop the China (Tianjin) Pilot Free Trade Zone Binhai High-tech Zone linkage Innovation Zone, straightening out the linkage working mechanism is the first step. From 2021 to 2023, Binhai High-tech Zone will take firm steps in improving the free trade linkage working mechanism. Has successively issued the "High-tech Zone Implementation of the "China (Tianjin) Pilot Free Trade Zone Binhai High-tech Zone Joint Innovation Zone Overall Plan" Work Plan", established a joint innovation zone construction work leading group and a free trade joint innovation bureau, and established synergy with the free trade zone Innovate the mechanism and steadily promote the work of "double self-linkage". At the same time, the Management Committee of Binhai High-tech Zone has also formulated a joint innovation zone index assessment work plan and assessment system, which clearly defines the division of labor, assigns responsibilities and points for each item, and monitors the completion of indicators on a quarterly basis.
In addition, the Binhai High-tech Zone also actively summarizes and reports the experience of joint innovation zone reform pilots such as the construction of joint innovation demonstration bases, and establishes two "work list" submission systems, namely, a list of institutional innovation needs and a list of problems in the pilot free trade zone. Guidance, timely reporting of free trade linkage policy needs, has strongly supported the policy innovation of the pilot free trade zone. And sorted out the institutional innovation achievements of the Pilot Free Trade Zone one by one, and gradually formed the "Special Report on Combing the List of Innovative Measures that Can be Learned from the Tianjin Pilot Free Trade Zone"; promoted the inclusion of "two-self linkage", cell therapy, etc. into the new revision Regulations on the China (Tianjin) Pilot Free Trade Zone.
Promoting free trade policies to empower industrial innovation
In order to make the free trade policy closer to the industry, and then empower Binhai High-tech Zone to upgrade its technological innovation and industrial innovation, in the past few years, Binhai High-tech Zone has taken the initiative to improve service effectiveness in multiple dimensions, relying on online and offline training, visits and research, and implementation of corporate services Various forms such as the commissioner system actively promote and interpret RCEP preferential policies and economic and trade rules for enterprises, effectively improving the application level of enterprises to economic and trade rules.

In response to the actual needs of different industries, Binhai High-tech Zone is also actively exploring a new model of "bonded +" industrial development, and has successively compiled the "Special Research Report on Promoting Bonded R&D Work Paths in the Biopharmaceutical Industry" and "Comprehensive Bonded Area Empowering "Cell Valley" Biology "Pharmaceutical Industry Special Report"; and relying on the "Xinhuo" dual-innovation base (platform), explore the new business form of integrated circuit "bonded + testing"; cooperate with Saixiang Technology Company and Gamesa Company to explore the integration of high-end equipment manufacturing and maintenance items + bonded policies Innovation path.
At present, the "new model of biopharmaceutical supply chain management" has been approved as an innovative development project in the Free Trade Zone, the joint innovation demonstration base in the Gene and Cell Therapy Free Trade Pilot Zone has been approved for construction, and Zhongyuan Xiehe, an enterprise in the Binhai High-tech Zone, has officially opened the cell therapy clinic A full closed-loop pilot of the study. In addition, Binhai High-tech Zone and Tianjin Port Free Trade Zone signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement on the innovation and development of the medical and health industry, and cooperated in supporting the construction of green drug channels for biopharmaceutical companies and institutes, and real-world research. Improving services, innovating mechanisms, and introducing resources, these resounding measures have effectively stimulated the industrial vitality of Binhai High-tech Zone.
Create a high-level open environment
How to break the bottleneck between "going out" and "bringing in"? How to create a high-level open environment? It is very important for the construction of China (Tianjin) Pilot Free Trade Zone Binhai High-tech Zone Joint Innovation Zone.
In order to further improve the level of cross-border financial services, Binhai High-tech Zone actively promotes the landing of foreign-funded institutions to participate in the disposal of domestic non-performing assets. Landed the first cross-border financing facilitation pilot business in Tianjin, increasing the amount of foreign debt for enterprises by nearly 3.5 million US dollars; actively strived to expand the scope of application of FT account policies to Binhai High-tech Zone through "white list" and other methods, and screened the "white list" method to open 15 companies need to establish FT accounts.
In addition, Binhai High-tech Zone has also been approved as a municipal cross-border e-commerce demonstration park. Absorbed 67 enterprises, with a transaction volume of 740 million yuan, introduced more than 50 high-quality cross-border e-commerce service providers such as Dalin Logistics, and signed strategic cooperation agreements and employment training base construction agreements with nearly 20 colleges and universities. There are more than 3,000 overseas e-commerce students.
In terms of increasing support for foreign trade and foreign-funded enterprises, Binhai High-tech Zone actively organized a team to go to Gamesa, Toyota Motor Technology Center and other more than 20 foreign-funded foreign trade companies to conduct research and service, and to preach the RCEP policy; to report to the Ministry of Commerce Demonstration work projects for improving quality and efficiency, helping the Pharmaceutical Research Institute, Cell Ecology Haihe Laboratory, and Shengshi Baicao to win national financial support; and the city's first initiative to reward and support AEO highly recognized enterprises by the customs. Real money helps enterprises improve their credit ratings and open up international markets market.
The relevant person in charge of Binhai High-tech Zone said that in the next step, Binhai High-tech Zone will continue to improve the level of free trade linkage innovation, innovate systems and mechanisms to empower industrial development, and actively integrate into the international innovation ecosystem.
In the future, Binhai High-tech Zone will further promote the extension and replication of free trade zone policies, and strengthen research on free trade policy innovation.
