A returned overseas Chinese innovation and entrepreneurship conference began in Shanghai  Dec 1, with the participation of over 500 government and returned overseas talents.

During the conference, attendees discussed the new opportunities brought by the integration of the Yangtze River Delta region and development of the artificial intelligence (AI) industry to the innovation and entrepreneurship of returned overseas talents. 

Yin Hong, deputy Party secretary of Shanghai, said that the city will open wider doors to talented personnel, and offer them a better environment for their innovation, entrepreneurship and growth, because innovation and talents are considered significant driving forces for a city's development.

Yin also mentioned that Shanghai now has a bigger platform, more preferential policies, and better business environment, which makes it a perfect destination for returned overseas talents to pursue innovation or start up their own businesses.

He said he expected that returned overseas Chinese will make more contributions to Shanghai's and the country's development and progress.

The Shanghai Overseas Returned Scholars Association also signed a cooperation deal with Changning district government during the conference.

The two sides will work together on building a platform for sharing overseas talent, a consulting team for organizing returned overseas talents, and setting up a returned overseas talent innovation and entrepreneurship base.

The annual conference that started in 2013 has grown into an influential innovation and entrepreneurship activity among returned overseas talents.
