Year to date, four innovation master platforms have been in shape in the

province, including Hefei Comprehensive National Science Center, Hefei Binhu

Science City, Hefei-Wuhu-Bengbu National Innovation Demonstration Zone. Anhui

sound supportive and auxiliary industrial base.

Anhui is a large home appliance producing province in China and in every three

Under the present global economic uncertainty amid the COVID-19 pandemic,

Anhui's advantageous digital and intelligent supply chain technology helped

local enterprises successfully survive the crisis.

For instance, its diversified air, railway and maritime logistics system helps

a local manufacturer transport products to 270 key cities in 126 countries and

regions worldwide.
