Infrastructure growth
After years of development, the park now has a state-of-the-arts platform of broadband digital communications. With a network of "1000MB as the backbone, 100MB on the desk-top" and a computer center covering more than 300 sq m, the park can now provides 10-100MB for every end-user.
A number of telecom operators and network operators, including China Telecom and Shanghai Science & Technology Network Communications Corporation, have all set up separate telecommunication facilities in the park in order to provide businesses with the best landline and broadband network services.
China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom are also providing a high level of mobile services through their coverage of the park with high quality GSM and CDMA signals.
In 2007, China Telecom's Shanghai branch said the park represented a model industrial zone for information application. Since then, the operator has been providing the park's service outsourcing companies with its highest level of broadband services. In 2005, China Netcom's Shanghai branch also invested more than 10 million yuan in developing a core computer center in the park, with an eye on future profit from the park's ongoing development.
The park has also established a public service platform for animation production and a training base for multimedia professionals, whose skills are in short supply.
Business and living conditions have also been improving in the park. Its 24-hour and full coverage surveillance system and electronic patrol system have boosted the security of businesses throughout the park.
Outsourcing industry
After a period of industrial restructuring, service outsourcing has become the main business of the park. Software outsourcing, animation and the LED industries have dominated the park's service outsourcing business and have accrued a considerable scale.
The establishments of the service platform for animation production and the outsourcing talent training base have also strongly promoted the development of the park's service outsourcing industry.
There are currently around 100 service outsourcing e-businesses engaged in animation and computer games production, software outsourcing and LED production in the park. The companies represented include the American LED chips manufacturer, Cree Inc, and OPTILED Lighting International, a leading expert and provider of LED lighting solutions.
The park has also attracted several joint-ventures and domestic firms, including the Shanghai Okasan-Huada Computer System Co, regarded as one of Shanghai's top 10 software exporting companies since 2008 and the Shanghai Sakura Information System Co, which was backed by the Ministry of Commerce's service outsourcing talents fund in 2008 and was regarded as one of Shanghai's most advanced technology service businesses in 2009. UltiZen Games, one of China's top 10 game art outsourcing firms, is also based in the park.
