Ningbo authorities are working at full speed to attract as many talented professionals as possible from home and abroad to support its growing economy, and when they get there, the city in East China's Zhejiang province is doing everything it can to ensure the business environment is second to none.

To offset the negative effects in terms of recruitment during the COVID-19 pandemic, Ningbo has held 339 online job fairs since February, offering 192,000 high-quality jobs. The city also introduced 42,000 young people to its local enterprises.

In global terms, Ningbo has worked with overseas talent recruitment platforms, and has more than 110,000 talented professionals who have signaled their intentions to work in the city. In addition, 61,000 college graduates have found jobs in Ningbo in the first half of 2020.

Ningbo has established six entrepreneurship parks across the city, which so far have attracted 205 State-level talents and a raft of provincial and city-level talents to establish business operations.

He Fan is the chairman and general manager of Westbart, a Sino-German joint venture that develops and manufactures flexible semiconductor sensors and automotive electronic systems. He and his company were attracted to settle in Ningbo's Haishu entrepreneurship park in 2016.

The entrepreneurship park focuses on the digital economy, covering artificial intelligence, industrial internet and intelligent sensing.

With the help of the park, Westbart found a suitable site to locate its dust-free plant in the district.

"At that time, almost every two weeks, the officials with the Haishu entrepreneurship park, together with the officials of various towns and villages, inspected suitable sites for us. After half a year, we finally chose Gaoqiao town as the location of our plant," He said.
