Why is Yunnan a strong province in "biomanufacturing"?
As a strategic emerging industry leading the Fourth Industrial Revolution, biomanufacturing has become a global focus of attention.
China attaches great importance to the development of the biomanufacturing industry, and the 2023 Central Economic Work Conference has explicitly proposed to build strategic emerging industries such as biomanufacturing.
Yunnan Province actively responds to the national call, anchoring the goal of "achieving a total output value of 100 billion yuan in the province's biomanufacturing industry by 2025", fully promoting the high-quality development of the biomanufacturing industry, and striving to achieve overtaking on this new track.
Strengthening the main body, grasping projects, forging a strong engine for the industry
The Department of Industry and Information Technology of Yunnan Province regards cultivating enterprises as its top priority, focusing on key areas such as biomedicine, biological fermentation, bio based materials, and bioenergy, concentrating advantageous resources and strength, and creating high-quality enterprises with core competitiveness.
At present, Yunnan has emerged a group of representative and innovative enterprises in the field of biomanufacturing, which have made significant achievements in multiple sub fields such as biomedicine, biological fermentation, biobased materials, and bioenergy.
Why is Shandong a "province with a large and strong fermentation industry"?
As a leading vaccine company in China, Watson Biologics has a market share of over 60% for its 13 valent pneumonia vaccine, and its mRNA vaccine has also received national emergency approval for use.
Beteini has surpassed 5 billion yuan in revenue with its big health products, becoming a leader in the industry.
In the field of biological fermentation, Yunnan Jida Biotechnology has significantly improved the production and quality of glutathione through strain innovation and fermentation process optimization.
Jiabao Biotechnology focuses on microbial fermentation of polysaccharides, filling the gap in the high-end market and accelerating the process of domestic substitution.
Yunnan Zewei plans to build the largest steroid fermentation base in China, further consolidating Yunnan's position in the field of biomedicine.
These enterprises not only promote the high-quality development of Yunnan's biomanufacturing industry, but also provide strong support for the rise of the national biomanufacturing industry.
Building clusters, strengthening innovation, and doing a good job in industrial "chain articles"
Specialization and clustering are the development trends of the biomanufacturing industry.
Yunnan Province is benchmarking against advanced domestic industrial parks and accelerating the construction of specialized parks such as Kunming and Yuxi Biological Vaccines, Tengyao Industrial Park, and Chuxiong Chemical Raw Materials, in order to enhance industrial agglomeration and competitiveness.
At the same time, Yunnan also focuses on innovation driven development, building an "intelligent brain" for industrial incubation, introducing and cultivating a number of research institutes and high-tech enterprises, and constructing multiple national level innovation platforms, key laboratories, and engineering research centers.
Kunming has established multiple shared science and technology innovation centers and service platforms for the cell industry, further consolidating the foundation of industrial research and development innovation.
In addition, Yunnan actively seizes the strategic opportunity period of the biomanufacturing industry, strengthens regional coordination, holds multiple industry transfer and docking activities, widely absorbs high-quality resources, and promotes the high-end, intelligent, and green development of the biomanufacturing industry.
Yunnan's active exploration and efforts in the field of biomanufacturing industry demonstrate its determination and confidence to move from a province with abundant biological resources to a strong province in biomanufacturing.
Through a series of measures such as strengthening the main body, focusing on projects, building clusters, and promoting innovation, Yunnan is gradually improving the ecosystem of the biomanufacturing industry and enhancing its overall competitiveness.
I believe that in the near future, Yunnan will become an important pole in China's biomanufacturing industry, providing strong support for high-quality economic and social development.
