Several rivers and greenbelts cut through the park separating it into five functional areas: industrial, R&D, finance and business, residential, and eco-agricultural.
The industrial area combines ecological development, environmental protection, and new, high technology and has four project clusters in bioengineering, new materials, high technology, and storage and logistics. Of these, the bioengineering project gives priority to pharmaceuticals, biological products, blood products, vaccine diagnostic reagents, medical equipment, headquarters economy, an R&D outsourcing center, exhibitions, displays a sales center, and the culture and creativity industry.
The new materials cluster gives priority to multi-layer co-extrusion film; metals; and composite, inorganic nonmetallic, nano, electronic, aeronautical, super-conducting, and other new materials. The high-tech cluster places priority on the high-tech, electronic, IT and animation industries.
