Ding Chun said that the signing of the agreement is a joyous event in Changzhou. He hopes that the two sides will combine NJTech's scientific research capacity with Changzhou's outstanding industries to achieve a win-win situation. The governments of Changzhou city and Wujin district will provide the best services and fully support the construction and development of the institute.
