TREE NEWS update: Beijing’s leadership group for education, science, technology and talent issued a plan to build Zhongguancun into a world-leading science park by 2030. Targets include R&D spending by enterprises at about 9.0% of value added, 110 world-class tech firms, 105 unicorns, 13.5 trillion yuan in park revenue and 8.1 trillion yuan from strategic emerging industries.
Beijing’s Zhongguancun sets 2030 goals: 105 unicorns, 13.5 trillion yuan revenue
The headline-grabbing unicorn and revenue targets matter less than the R&D intensity goal, which signals Beijing wants Zhongguancun's corporate base to fund its own innovation rather than rely on state direction alone. For crypto and RWA builders, the plan's classification of strategic emerging industries is the detail worth tracking, since it shapes which sectors can access park incentives and talent pipelines. Whether Zhongguancun's next unicorn cohort skews toward blockchain or tokenized real-world assets, rather than software and hardware as in past cycles, is the open question.
