The Sino-German Innovation Corridor, the core area of Loujiang New City in Taicang, Jiangsu province, is soliciting urban design solutions from across the globe.

The corridor will serve as a functional area for the integrated development of science and education, transportation, commerce, and intelligent manufacturing.

The area will include a high-speed railway station, two universities, convention and exhibition centers, and a grade-3A hospital, the highest level in the Chinese hospital ranking system.

The design solutions submitted should have ecological preservation, transportation system and supporting facilities taken into consideration.
