Weifang ten city million: efforts to improve the LED industry chain

Weifang is known as the "kite capital" reputation, but also attaches great importance to the development of LED industry, is one of the early development of LED city. April 28, 2009, the Ministry of science and technology approved the city of Weifang as the Ten City million semiconductor lighting application engineering, one of the 21 pilot cities.

August 3rd, ten city million pilot city special research team in the national semiconductor lighting engineering research and development and Industry Alliance Deputy Secretary General Ruan Jun arrived in Weifang to carry out research. Deputy director of the Weifang Municipal Science and Technology Bureau Li Jingang, director of Weifang high tech Zone Science and Technology Bureau Sun Yuxiu and other leaders and micro wave of Shandong Huaguang optoelectronics Co. Ltd., electronic (Weifang) Co. Ltd., GoerTek Limited by Share Ltd, Shandong Sanjing Lighting Technology Co. Ltd. and other key business representatives and research group held a forum.

Weifang science and Technology Bureau of the new section chief Zhang Yutian introduced Weifang ten city million pilot demonstration work progress and future development plan of Weifang. Zhang Yutian, chief executive officer, said that the application of LED in Weifang started earlier, as early as 2006, when the global LED road lighting has just started, the city of Weifang on the road in the north of the city trunk road LED Street trial demonstration. August 2009, Weifang ten city million light semiconductor lighting application engineering pilot officially launched. Set up headed by the mayor, deputy mayor in charge of deputy director, science and Technology Bureau and other 7 departments and subordinate counties, municipal development zone is mainly responsible for human members of the "ten city lights" pilot work leading group. The introduction of the Ten City million pilot implementation of views.

In the pilot work, the greater support for LED in Weifang, the establishment of the development of high-tech industries and high-end industrial development in Weifang special fund, focusing on supporting the development of research and development platform and key equipment acquisition. Up to now, has invested 120 million yuan in the field of LED industry. By increasing capital investment, Weifang LED industry chain development more perfect development, formed the industrial layout from the wafer, chip, package to complete the application form, in the micro, GoerTek, wave Huaguang, Jin Yuan Qinshang and Datong Yujun and a number of advantages of enterprise as the main body, LED industrial cluster the small and medium-sized enterprises, three Octavia, Jiangdu, Huaguang lighting for added etc.. 2009 semiconductor lighting industry output grew by 60%.

In terms of policy, chief Zhang Yutian said that Weifang is developing new light subsidy policy. At present, there are 6 LED enterprises were identified as high-tech enterprises, and all enjoy the high-tech enterprise income tax reduction by 15% and corporate technology research and development funds by the deduction of the preferential policy of 150% plus.

In the future, Weifang will continue to improve the LED industry chain, accelerate the construction of inspection and testing platform to accelerate the development and demonstration of key common technology applications.

The meeting discussed the research team and key enterprises on behalf of the existing problems in the development of industry, market and intellectual property rights and other issues, Deputy Secretary General of Ruan Jun long in the developments of the LED industry pointed out that China LED industry has developed rapidly, there are good opportunities for development, but also have Study on the solution also requires a lot of problems, the future should focus on improving the reliability of the products and to strengthen the research and patent layout etc..
