On November 8, 2025, the Wuxi Xishan Golden Autumn Investment and Cooperation Symposium concluded with significant outcomes, showcasing a commitment to economic growth in the region. Under the theme “Infinite Opportunities with Xishan,” the event attracted over 200 participants, including business leaders, academic experts, and institutional representatives from various countries. This gathering aimed to highlight Xishan’s favorable investment environment and robust growth potential.
The symposium served as a platform for the signing of 91 key projects, which span multiple sectors such as advanced manufacturing, technological innovation, foreign investment, agriculture, and finance. Among the notable agreements was the establishment of a research and development facility and manufacturing plant for wind-turbine gearboxes. This facility is designed to produce 1,000 high-precision 10-MW units annually, thus reinforcing Xishan’s advanced equipment sector.
In addition to the wind-turbine project, three other domestic initiatives were announced. These include an intelligent manufacturing facility dedicated to renewable energy and nuclear fusion equipment components, the headquarters and R&D center for FanRuan Software, and a mass-production site focused on advanced process equipment and materials. Collectively, these projects aim to enhance the district’s industrial base and competitiveness.
Collaboration Initiatives and Recognitions
The symposium also showcased several major collaboration initiatives, particularly with JD.com’s global smart factory for its Wolf Pack robots and Songci Electromechanical’s R&D and manufacturing facility for next-generation renewable energy and semiconductor equipment. These initiatives are expected to play a crucial role in establishing a modern industrial framework within Xishan.
Furthermore, the event marked the release of the 2025 Wuxi Xishan Investment Environment White Paper, produced in collaboration with Cushman & Wakefield. This document outlines the investment landscape in the region, offering insights into potential opportunities for investors. During the symposium, the Xishan District Government recognized the first six recipients of its “Best Partners” awards, honoring those who have significantly contributed to the district’s development.
The Xishan District Government also announced the initiation of a new cross-regional collaboration framework, which will involve Wuxi’s four principal innovation centers. This collaborative effort aims to stimulate further economic development and innovation across the region.
The outcomes of the Wuxi Xishan Golden Autumn Investment and Cooperation Symposium underscore the district’s strategic focus on attracting investment and fostering partnerships. As these projects come to fruition, they are expected to contribute significantly to the economic landscape of Xishan and the broader Wuxi area.
