KONE opened its new southern China headquarters this year.

Foreign-invested companies are accelerating their deep integration with China’s domestic innovation, industrial and supply chains, as well as its abundant application scenarios. In the first three quarters of this year, foreign investment in China’s high-tech industries grew 33.8% year on year, accounting for 41.6% of the total. Among them, foreign investment in the digital economy, research and design services, and energy conservation, environmental protection and clean industries grew significantly. Finnish company KONE opened its new southern China headquarters this year to respond more quickly to growing demand in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. German auto-parts giant Schaeffler put a new integrated innovation base into operation in the Yangtze River Delta, including an intelligent R&D center, digital-intelligent manufacturing lines, and a computing-power center.
