Jiangsu should actively exert its own advantages and promote the synergy of industries and scientific innovation in the Yangtze River Delta. In the past five years, the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta has become the national strategy, and has achieved great results in infrastructure, ecological environment, as well as other areas. In important areas such as strengthening the industrial division and coordination, and building the innovation community, Jiangsu should play a greater role in the days to come. Currently, the construction of industrial clusters in the Yangtze River Delta is generally based on administrative boundaries, which means the cooperations are all among cities within one province. Thus, Jiangsu Province should actively promote the joint construction of trans-provincial industrial clusters, promote the integration of the innovation chain and industry chain, and try to carry out joint research on technology in the Yangtze River Delta.


To play the role of an important wing of the Yangtze River Delta well, Jiangsu must achieve the coordinated development within the province, deeply implement the 1+3 key functional area strategy, strongly promote the regional complementarity, cross-river integration, as well as north-south connection within the province, and promote the high-quality integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta. Firstly, Jiangsu should take the lead in building a high-quality integrated development mechanism within the province, break away from the mindset and path dependence of plate division and gradient development, and focus on building a high-quality development layout with complementary functions and advantages. Secondly, in order to maintain the comprehensive advantages of Jiangsu's manufacturing industry, it's of great significance to promote the orderly industrial transfer within the province. In this regard, Guangdong's policies have very strong reference for Jiangsu.
