CREG (China Railway Engineering Equipment Group) has maintained its leadership in global sales thanks to its independent breakthroughs in core technologies, such as the main bearings for Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs). Similarly, Yutong is leading the charge in new quality productive forces through strategic initiatives in hydrogen fuel-cell-powered commercial vehicles and autonomous driving, pioneering a smart future in transportation. Innovation is central to Zhengzhou's development strategy, fueling industrial modernization and the cultivation of next-generation productivity.
中铁装备以自主创新突破盾构机主轴承等技术，蝉联全球销量冠军；宇通前瞻布局氢燃料商用车和智能驾驶赛道，以“智慧交通”领跑新质生产力……郑州正将创新深植于城市发展的核心，推动产业升级与新质生产力培育。
Innovation platforms serve as the cornerstone of the regional innovation ecosystem and are crucial for fostering high-tech industries and high-quality growth. The global market entry of the "Walker II" humanoid robot, developed in a Zhengzhou laboratory, is a clear demonstration of the dynamism of these advanced platforms. Zhengzhou is focused on developing core hubs like the Zhongyuan Science and Technology City, establishing premier laboratories, and attracting world-class research institutions to build a strong base for advanced R&D. A comprehensive policy system is continuously being refined to enhance the accumulation and efficient allocation of innovation-focused resources.
创新平台是撬动区域创新生态的支点，更是培育高新技术、推动高质量发展的关键载体。当“行者二号”人形机器人从郑州实验室跨越至全球市场，其背后正是高能级平台释放的强劲动能。郑州聚力打造以中原科技城为代表的核心载体，通过重组新建重点实验室、引进顶尖科研机构，构建起支撑前沿研究与技术攻关的坚实底座。一套完善的政策体系正持续优化，推动创新要素加速集聚与高效配置。
The critical next step is translating research into marketable applications, and bridging this "last mile" to commercialization is essential. Here, industrial technology research institutes serve as vital catalysts, aligning laboratory discoveries with industry needs to accelerate their conversion into real economic productivity.
平台搭好了，如何让成果走出去？打通转化“最后一公里”是关键。产业技术研究院作为创新体系的“催化剂”，在精准对接产业前沿需求、加速实验室成果转化为现实生产力方面发挥着不可或缺的作用。
To concentrate research capabilities, Zhengzhou is attracting local branches and institutes established by top-tier universities and research institutions, and these are already yielding substantial results and serving corporate needs. Furthermore, the Zhongyuan Science and Technology City has been designated as a major provincial-level demonstration zone for technology transfer and commercialization. It now hosts a multitude of professional commercialization and incubation services, fostering a vibrant environment for technology transactions and fast-tracking research commercialization.
郑州引进一流大学和科研机构建设研究院，集聚科研力量，产出丰硕成果并服务企业。中原科技城更获批省级科技成果转移转化示范区重大平台，集聚了大量专业的转化孵化服务机构，技术交易活跃，成果转化正加速驶入快车道。
Talent is the foremost resource and the very lifeblood of innovation. Guided by the Zhengzhou Talent Initiative, the city is focusing its efforts on a comprehensive strategy to attract, nurture, employ, and retain talent, specifically targeting the needs of its modern industrial system and cultivating new quality productive forces. Measures include publishing an updated guidance catalog for core industrial talent needs and implementing a "case-by-case" policy to recruit top-tier and promising young professionals.
人才是第一资源，更是创新的活水之源。郑州以“郑聚英才计划”为牵引，瞄准现代化产业体系和培育新质生产力需求，在引、育、用、留人才上发力。通过发布新版产业骨干人才需求指导目录，落实“一事一议”引才等举措，大力引育顶尖与青年人才。
Looking ahead, as the development of Zhengzhou-based leading university research institutes continues, it will promote a deeper integration of scientific and industrial innovation within the provincial capital. This will, in turn, attract more high-caliber talent from both home and abroad, making Zhengzhou an increasingly powerful magnet for professionals from near and far.
未来，随着一流大学郑州研究院建设推进，在推动省会科技创新和产业创新深度融合的同时，将吸引更多海内外高层次人才加盟，也让郑州日益成为各类人才近悦远来的“强磁场”。
With unwavering momentum and continuous efforts, Zhengzhou is actively attracting a wide array of talent through open and inclusive policies. The city leverages its dynamic development platforms to foster innovation, accelerating its journey to become a designated National Central City and a premier talent hub.
郑州步履不停、持续发力。如今，这座城市正以开放包容的人才政策广纳贤才，以活力迸发的发展平台承载创新，加速推进国家中心城市与人才高地的建设进程。
