[editor's note] Hubei free trade zone has been listed for five years and has explored a large number of sample experience in reform and innovation. Recently, our province copied and popularized the Sixth Batch of 18 reform pilot experience to the whole province, and released 36 practical cases for the whole province to learn from. From now on, this newspaper has opened a column to focus on the latest achievements of institutional innovation in Hubei free trade zone.

On February 14, Humanwell Healthcare (Group) Co.Ltd(600079) group issued a heavy message: million annual salary + equity incentive to recruit general manager of new drug product line worldwide.

This is the latest achievement of innovative mechanisms such as the "six talents" of Hubei free trade zone. At present, more than 400 core technology and management personnel from 7 enterprises, including Humanwell Healthcare (Group) Co.Ltd(600079) , aerospace Sanjiang, etc., have become enterprise shareholders due to the "six talents".

Talent and capital are indispensable for innovative development. As the country's first pilot free trade zone with "innovation driven development" as its main task, Hubei Free Trade Zone promotes scientific and technological innovation with institutional innovation to revitalize talents and dredge the "blood" of funds for enterprises.

employees become shareholders

At the beginning of 2020, our province issued the opinions on the trial implementation of measures to further stimulate the innovation and entrepreneurship vitality of talents in China (Hubei) pilot free trade zone. The provincial Free Trade Office accelerated the gathering of high-end talents by promoting the transfer of ownership of scientific and technological achievements, promoting the flow of scientific researchers to enterprises, establishing equity incentive fund and other innovative measures in the free trade zone.

A year later, our province first paid special rewards to high-end talents engaged in R & D and achievement transformation, international investment and trade, cross-border services and other fields to key enterprises in the region. Enterprises such as Changjiang storage, Huaxing optoelectronics and Xiaomi Wuhan benefited, and a large number of urgently needed and scarce talents gathered in Hubei free trade zone.

Innovation driven, in essence, is talent driven; Talent driven, we must first "drive talents".

Innovation talent reserve. At the end of July last year, Wuhan launched a talent registration service platform. Global talents can register anytime, anywhere and enter the "talent reserve pool" of Optics Valley. The platform database covers the real-time ranking of more than 1300 universities in the world, as well as the dynamic directory of the world's top 500, China's top 500 and provincial and municipal top 100 enterprises, and corresponds to different points. Applicants only need to fill in the corresponding data, and the background will automatically match and convert the points. When they reach 60 points, they can apply for policy support.

Introduction of innovative talents. In May 2021, Wuhan set up a 1 billion yuan Optical Valley partner investment guidance fund to give a corresponding return bonus to enterprises introducing high-level talents, encourage and guide sub funds to invest in and introduce high-level talent enterprises, which is the first in China. So far, 11 institutions such as Innolux angel and Yuanhe origin have reported a total amount of 586 million yuan and a total scale of 2.975 billion yuan.

Recruit overseas talents. For foreigners applying for permanent residence, we provided closed-loop tracking services for the whole process from policy publicity to application processing, and doubled the acceptance of permanent residence of foreign talents.

"intellectual property" assets

"Knowledge is power". In Hubei Free Trade Zone, knowledge is not only an invisible force, but also a visible asset.

The "volume increase and area expansion" of science and technology financial financing benefits from the evaluation mechanism of the guiding effect of science and technology credit policy. In the evaluation mechanism, the loan structure index is composed of science and technology loans and small and micro science and technology enterprise loans, and the financial innovation index is composed of the development of financial businesses such as intellectual property pledge loans and science and technology enterprise guarantee insurance loans, so as to encourage banking institutions to increase their key support for high-tech industries.

Last year, the mechanism was selected into the fourth batch of "best practice cases" of the national free trade zone. Under the guidance of this mechanism, Wuhan banking institutions implemented science and technology credit policies in accordance with the evaluation guidance, and a number of financial products covering the life cycle of science and technology enterprises, such as intellectual property pledge loans and science and technology guarantee loans, were innovated and promoted. Among them, Wuhan intellectual property pledge financing reached 1.6 billion yuan, a record high. By the end of last year, the loan balance of science and technology enterprises in Wuhan was 310.65 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 21.8%.

Scientific and technological innovation, talent is the guide, finance is the blood. Hubei free trade zone has explored the classified support for different types of carriers and issued special policies; Innovate the evaluation system, entrust a third-party organization to carry out performance appraisal, and take the results as an important basis for policy and financial support. In 2021, Putian incubator and other four national incubators will be added in Wuhan, with 70 incubators and more than 6000 incubating enterprises.
