Hangzhou a model of innovation

China Daily  

An online shop based in a village in Tonglu county, Hangzhou, made its first deal in October 2014. "The Hangzhou model, with its emphasis on tertiary industry, especially fast-growing industries including internet financing, e-commerce and big data, stands for a Chinese path of development," Yan Jiuyuan, a researcher at Trigger Trend Research Center, a Guangzhou-based think tank, wrote in an analysis widely spread on the internet. Despite downward pressure on the domestic economy, Hangzhou's GDP increased by 10.8 percent in the first half of this year, ranking first among 26 major Chinese cities, according to the Hangzhou government. "Innovation will be highlighted at the summit, as the whole planet is seeking a new growth model," said Huang Wei, chief of global governance studies with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Chen Fengying, a researcher on the global economy at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said Hangzhou is the best example of a city linking China's past, present and future.
