Zhangjiagang, a county-level city in Suzhou, East China's Jiangsu province, held several matchmaking sessions and job fairs at the Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology and Nanjing Tech University from March 8 to 9.
Zhangjiagang's bureau of science and technology had visited more than 300 enterprises to learn about their technological bottlenecks and invited scholars from the two universities in Nanjing to help address the problems before the events, said Yu Ping, deputy head of the bureau.
Due to the authorities' efforts, many Zhangjiagang companies found possible solutions to their problems at the 10 roadshows held. For example, Suzhou Matrix Optoelectronics Co reached an initial agreement with Huang Xiaogu, a professor at the Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology, to develop magnetic field sensing and imaging technology.
Forty-one companies in Zhangjiagang related to sectors including electronic information, metallurgy, machinery, and chemistry, participated in the job fairs and offered 1,107 jobs to the students of these universities in Nanjing.
