No. 12, Hongshan Road

What should the next growth pole of a city look like when the digital wave meets the green revolution?
In the Hongshan International Community at No. 12, Hongshan Road, Xuanwu District, a building complex that holds the “digital carbon code” provides the answer – Yida Nanjing Digital Carbon MOBO Science and Technology Park. As soon as it made its debut, it became the “eye-catching package” of the industrial circle: backed by state-owned enterprise capital, with LEED international green certification, and also introducing Siemens’ science and technology innovation center.
How could this be an industrial park? It is clearly a “smart stage” built by Nanjing for future industries
The “carbon container” hidden in the main city looks like this.
On 116 mu of land, 180,000 square meters of space is giving rise to a new form: the 37,000-square-meter office area is not a cold cubicle, but a field where data and low-carbon industries can “fall in love freely”.

The office building has long been equipped with the internationally recognized green building certification LEED, endowing the low-carbon ecology with a low-carbon gene. Even better is the location – looking up, one can see the outline of Zijin Mountain, and turning around, one can catch the evening breeze of Xuanwu Lake. The Metro Line 9 has directly “welded” its platform right at the entrance of the park.
Downstairs are commercial complexes and talent apartments, while upstairs are the offices of data exchanges and carbon consulting institutions. Working here, one can probably achieve the goal of “enjoying both work and walking”.

While others build industrial parks by “allocating plots of land and waiting for enterprises”, here it’s all about “creating an ecosystem based on industries”.
“Number” is the core engine. The park integrates resources such as data providers, data users, policy supporters, technology operators, and capital operators to form a complete upstream and downstream industrial chain and an innovative industrial ecosystem, creating a highland for industrial agglomeration. The entire data industry chain seems to have been hit by the “fast-forward button”.
“Carbon” is an invisible vein. Carbon data, carbon certification, carbon finance, carbon legal affairs… Here, a comprehensive carbon industry system covering the entire process from “carbon calculation” to “carbon reduction” can be fully equipped in one stop. At the same time, it will also attract a number of domestic and foreign certification institutions, auditing institutions, financial institutions, energy conservation and carbon reduction service institutions, etc. to settle in, and be built into a gathering place for green and low-carbon services. Enterprises no longer need to run around in search of cooperation. Just take a walk downstairs and they can assemble a “carbon reduction team”.

The settlement of the Siemens Xcelerator Yangtze River Delta Science and Technology Innovation Empowerment Center has added fuel to the fire of this park.
As the first offline experience and application service center of Siemens worldwide, it came with three major tasks:

Build a one-stop platform for “intelligent transformation, digital transition and network connection” to help enterprises carry out digital and low-carbon transformation, equip production lines with “brains”, and promote enterprises to improve efficiency and enhance competitiveness through digital transformation. Organize industrial salons and talent training to make digital transformation no longer a “mystery”. We also plan to bring in a bunch of partners to create a “digital low-carbon circle of friends” in Nanjing. Through resource integration, technological cooperation and international exchanges, we aim to boost the manufacturing industry and form a complete green low-carbon and digital economy industrial ecosystem.

“ESG” (environmental, Social and Corporate Governance) is an important criterion for the development of enterprises nowadays.
The ESG performance of the park has long reached a new height: a green square integrating the concept of sponge cities and featuring a water circulation system has been built in the center of the park. When attracting investment, they specifically select “green players” such as digital finance, carbon auditing, and carbon trading. Even for employees’ commutes, green travel is encouraged – after all, parks that can catch the attention of international institutions must exude a low-carbon vibe in every detail.

Yida Nanjing Digital Carbon MOBO Science and Technology Park regards “data” and “carbon” as its core industries. Coupled with related service industries and the impetus of international innovation platforms and projects, it aims to attract a group of leading enterprises, platforms and talents in the digital carbon field, allowing the digital economy and green low-carbon to give traditional industries a “new look”, radiating throughout the province and even the country. To become a highland of productive service industries and a model of low-carbon development.
Just like installing a “digital carbon interface” for the city, the technologies and models that emerge here in the future might follow the veins of the Yangtze River Delta and grow into a “Nanjing model” that the whole country wants to learn from.

When digital technology meets low carbon and industries embrace ecology, this science and technology park is proving that the ecosystem woven by “data” and “carbon” in Nanjing is becoming increasingly interesting.
