The third phase of the incubator is expected to provide more supporting facilities for companies involved in biomedicine, medical equipment, and special medical foods.

AstraZeneca set up operations in WND in 1993 and was one of the first foreign-funded enterprises in Wuxi. It has set up different headquarters for production, distribution, sales, and innovation in the district.

Cui Rongguo, Party secretary of WND, stated that WND will deepen cooperation with AstraZeneca and provide policy support to companies, as it seeks to build a high-level research and development hub for the biomedical industry.
