Recently, the Qingdao Virtual Reality Technology Innovation Center, led by the Laoshan District Government, has been officially recognized as the sixth science and technology innovation center approved by Qingdao City. This move underscores the city's high regard for the virtual reality industry. As part of the "13th Five-Year Plan" for scientific and technological innovation, the establishment of these centers follows a rigorous process involving recommendations from districts and cities, expert evaluations, and public feedback. So far, five innovation centers focusing on areas like marine biomedicine, high-speed trains, smart homes, graphene, and smart living have been launched. The newly approved center will concentrate on virtual reality, signaling the city's confidence in this burgeoning field. Future policies are expected to provide additional support to this sector.
The approval of the Qingdao Virtual Reality Technology Innovation Center also highlights the progress made in Laoshan District's VR industry. Since 2015, when Laoshan signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, high-end R&D institutions and enterprises in the virtual reality sector have rapidly gathered in the area. Last year, Laoshan became the first administrative region to join the China Virtual Reality Industry Alliance and received the country's first virtual reality high-tech industrialization base. Institutions such as the State Key Laboratory of Virtual Reality Technology and Systems Qingdao Branch and the Beihang Qingdao Research Institute have attracted leading global VR hardware provider Goer Co., Ltd., establishing significant influence within the industry.
Currently, over 30 virtual reality companies are clustered in Laoshan District, covering sectors such as rail transit, oil drilling, marine equipment, smart homes, film and television, military, real estate, and commerce. These companies generate approximately 4 billion yuan in annual revenue. Laoshan’s VR development strategy is becoming clearer. This year, Laoshan District renovated a 10,000-square-meter building at the Laoshan Tea Expo Park on Binhai Innovation Avenue and initiated the construction of a virtual reality technology innovation center. With official approval, Laoshan plans to build three key bases: a virtual reality high-tech industrialization base, a virtual reality technology innovation demonstration base, and a virtual reality application demonstration base. Additionally, it aims to develop five platform carriers, including a virtual reality R&D demonstration platform, a talent training platform, a technology transformation platform, and venture capital and industrial funds.
Laoshan District is also integrating VR technology into the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, enhancing social management and services, and improving residents' quality of life. By following the principle of "leading a hospital, supporting a valley, coordinating multiple points, and linking the whole city," Laoshan aspires to become the VR industry hub. Major projects under development include Goer Qingdao Science and Technology Industrial Park, Haier Yungu, Qingdao International Innovation Park, Black Crystal Technology, Jindong Digital, Siyuan Technology, and Cat Eye Vision.
Looking ahead, Laoshan District intends to leverage its existing strengths and further enhance the VR industry. By collaborating with prestigious domestic and international universities and research institutions, Laoshan plans to establish several engineering research centers and laboratories, creating a comprehensive VR R&D demonstration park. It will also set up a VR technology transfer platform and establish the nation's first VR intellectual property exchange. Additionally, Laoshan will implement a "100-person virtual reality international expert plan," introducing top international research institutions and experts to cultivate high-level VR talent and establish venture capital funds totaling 100 million, 500 million, and 3 billion yuan respectively. This investment mechanism will prioritize government guidance, corporate participation, and diversified social capital involvement.
