Recently, the 2022 Shanghai Science and Technology Award was announced, with a total of 80 awards from various units in Xuhui District, accounting for more than 1/4 of the city's total, including one winner of the Youth Science and Technology Outstanding Contribution Award. In addition, the number of awards for 18 natural science awards and 14 technological invention awards accounts for about one-third of the city's total, and the only two special awards for technological invention in the city are all spent in Xuhui.

From the distribution of award-winning institutions and enterprises in the area, the "Fenglin Life and Health Science and Technology Innovation Block" that Xuhui is currently striving to build not only has a strong technological atmosphere, but also an active science and technology innovation soil. By focusing on the life and health industry, one of the key industries of the 14th Five Year Plan in the region, Xuhui is relying on the rich accumulation of science and technology innovation in Fenglin Park to create an integrated science and technology innovation block that adapts to life and health technology innovation, achievement transformation, and industrial integration development, showcasing the characteristics of the urban landscape and ensuring the well-being of talents.

From the life science "park" to the life and health science and technology innovation "block", Xuhui Fenglin provides the answer on how to create a dynamic industrial chain in the unchanged spatial structure of the central urban area.

Creating a livable, business friendly, and business friendly "three body space"

The Fenglin Life and Health Science and Technology Innovation Block is adjacent to the Xujiahui commercial district, with "five horizontal and four vertical" ground roads within the block. On the north-south axis of the Fenglin Road Yueyang Road block, there are also research units such as the Shanghai Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Molecular Cell Science Excellence Innovation Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhongshan Hospital, the Molecular Plant Science Excellence Innovation Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Fenglin International Center, and the Xuhui District Dental Prevention Institute. The well-developed transportation network and scattered courtyards provide unique geographical advantages and space for integrated development in the construction of science and technology innovation blocks.

The reporter learned from the Xuhui District Science and Technology Committee and the District Science Association that currently, the Fenglin Life and Health Science and Technology Innovation Block has gathered high-end scientific research talents represented by 44 academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, attracting domestic pharmaceutical leading enterprises such as Yangtze River Pharmaceutical and Shiyao Group to settle in the Fenglin International Center. Under this opportunity, Xuhui is working to rebuild the spatial functions of the block in the Fenglin area, promoting the construction of a "scene city" that integrates and coexists.

On the one hand, Xuhui District will play a greater role in the development of public and commercial spaces in science and technology innovation blocks by improving the level of public space, encouraging state-owned assets, and appropriately introducing social capital. At the same time, Xu Hui is trying to promote the construction of flexible office spaces that entrepreneurial enterprises can afford. In the process of promoting internal renovation of buildings, the focus is on increasing public commercial office spaces, encouraging the natural connection between the university science and technology park and the lobby of office buildings in the area and the public space on the first floor, and connecting with the external open space to increase the flexibility and inclusiveness of the use of space in science and technology innovation blocks.

On the other hand, Xuhui District will continue to establish talent apartments and public rental housing in the science and technology innovation block, which are convenient, comfortable to live in, and affordable to rent. This will create a convenient and compact living space for technology entrepreneurs and professionals in the technology service industry, forming a "three body space" composed of office space, living space, and a third space for business negotiation, creating a livable, business friendly environment in the science and technology innovation block.

Provide a buffer zone for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements

"Xu Hui Fenglin can benchmark Boston Cambridge, where there are not only MIT and Harvard, but also many pharmaceutical enterprises." In 2021, Yu Biao was elected as an academician of the CAS Member. After taking root in Fenglin for many years, as a researcher of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, he expressed the expectations of a scientific research worker for Xuhui's life science innovation and industrial development.

Currently, Shanghai is actively building a service platform for the transformation of life science and technology achievements. Among them, Xuhui District, which is at the forefront, has formed the "Fenglin HUB" platform with the service goal of transforming life and health technology achievements, and has built an innovation chain that integrates "life and health innovation concentration" and "commercial speed of achievement transformation". The reporter learned that currently, five innovative transformation platforms have been established in the Fenglin Science and Technology Innovation Block, including molecular nanotechnology, immunotherapy, biological manufacturing and reactors, molecular function realization, and medical industry intersection. Over the past three years, the internal medicine research units in the neighborhood have won a total of 64 scientific and technological awards in Shanghai, laying a solid foundation for innovation and entrepreneurship in life and health, as well as the transformation of scientific and technological achievements.

With the "Fenglin Brand" officially written into the "Shanghai Plan" of the national biomedical industry innovation highland, Xuhui, as a representative of the central urban area of Shanghai center, has closely participated in the Yangtze River Delta integration strategy and the coordinated development of regional industries in the field of biomedicine, and gradually formed an innovation ecosystem with benign interaction of resources such as talent, capital, clinical, technology and services.
