CHINA's Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone plans to a develop an aerotropolis with multiple high-tech projects now that it has set up an international experts committee during a talent recruitment event held in Zhengzhou, the capital city of Henan province.
Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone is among the first aviation economic pilot zones to be given the green light by China's State Council in March 2013, with a planned area of 415 square kilometres, the Xinhua Silk Road Information Service announced.
After several years of development, it has formed a three-dimensional transportation hub that connects China with the rest of the world. It encompasses eastern and western China and features modern service industries.
Led by chief adviser of the airport zone John Kasarda, who is also a professor at the University of North Carolina and the founder of the aerotropolis theory, the newly established expert committee is an international think-tank team that brings together aviation experts from international organisations, enterprises and research institutions.
Zhengzhou's aerotropolis is intended to serve as a model for building aerotropoli in China, in a bid to improve its overall appeal to technology, industries, capital and other resources.
Ten high-end industrial projects are expected to be carried out in the wake of the recruitment event, covering high-end manufacturing, biomedicine and other fields.
Communist Party Working Committee of Zhengzhou Airport Economy Zone secretary Ma Jian said that it will stick to the goal of 'building a new city in a decade' and take on the responsibility of leading Henan's opening-up to the outside world.
The Second Talent Recruitment & Project Matching Event for Innovation and Development held in Zhengzhou offered 157,432 positions across 65 industries, in an effort to attract talents to either work at or start a business in Henan province.
