Ordos Hi-Tech Industrial Park
In May 2011, the Ordos Hi-Tech Industrial Park construction was planned. It was approved as the autonomous region level high-tech development zone in October of the same year. In February 2017, it was upgraded to a national high-tech industrial development zone. Covering 639 mu, it has attracted 22 high-tech enterprises and 14 autonomous regional-level enterprise research and development centers.
The park has constructed six data centers and an eight-square-kilometer science and education incubation park, and is in the process of building additional standardized data centers. It has also established various advanced projects in coal-based new materials, environmental protection, and biopharmaceuticals.
Additionally, it hosts a national-level technology enterprise incubator, university student entrepreneurship parks, an overseas student entrepreneurship park, a science and technology entrepreneurship park, an academician expert workstation, and 20 other research institutions.
The park's goal is to create a city-wide scientific and technological innovation service platform, focusing on large-scale data computing, high-tech research, and development.
