Guiyang National High-tech Industrial Development Zone (Guiyang HIDZ) in Southwest China's Guizhou province recently started implementing a cluster registration system for businesses.
"Cluster registration refers to multiple enterprises registering their residence at the address of a hosting institution and receiving residence-hosting services from the said institution, creating a registration model for the development of clustered enterprises," said an official from Guiyang HIDZ's administrative approval bureau.
The move aims to further deepen the reform of "streamlining administration, delegating power, and improving services", and mitigate the development bottleneck faced by startups in their initial phase due to the inability to afford or rent independent office spaces.
It is expected to reduce the entry barriers and operating costs for businesses and accelerate the release and stimulation of market vitality while also promoting the development of related industrial clusters.
Currently, Guiyang HIDZ has benchmarked the experience and practices of supporting cluster registration in advanced areas within the country.
The three State-owned platform companies in Guiyang HIDZ have taken the lead in promoting the pilot registration of "centralized registration sites". They are incentivized to actively attract investment and provide high-quality hosting services.
Additionally, Guiyang HIDZ encourages enterprises that do not require specific operating premises in which to conduct their operations, as well as enterprises in the initial stage of entrepreneurship that lack the required conditions for operating premises, to sign residence-hosting agreements with enterprises or institutions and apply for cluster registration. This will generate collaborative development within the cluster.
