Wuxi National Hi-Tech District (WND), founded in 1992, was given administrative status and named Xinwu District in February, 2016.
WND is located in the southeastern part of East China's Jiangsu province, between Shanghai and Nanjing. It lies within the Yangtze River Delta, China's most economically developed and vibrant area.
As a pivotal part of the South Jiangsu National Innovation Demonstration Zone, WND has been the economic engine behind the opening-up of Wuxi. It is Jiangsu’s only development zone to be selected to the first batch of innovative bases for overseas high-level talent of the “Ten Thousand Talents Program”. The district has ranked second in comprehensive evaluation of national development parks in Jiangsu for the past 10 years.
In 2017, its GDP reached 161.88 billion yuan ($25.34 billion), a year-on-year growth of 8.1 percent. The industrial output value above designated scale totaled 385.5 billion yuan, up by 19.4 percent, and the public finance budget revenue amounted to 17.61 billion yuan, 9.7 percent.
Foreign trade was worth $43.25 billion, a year-on-year growth of 24.9 percent, with $1.266 billion of foreign investment completed.
While accounting for merely 6.1 percent of the city's industrial energy consumption in 2017, the zone made 24.3 percent of the city's industrial output value, 28.6 percent of its industrial added value, and 33 percent of the profits of industrial enterprises.
