Building BioTech Cities: Impact of Living Support Services

Abstract

In this project, a study is conducted on a business incubator subsidiary, Transfar Science & Technology City. The project focuses on examining living support systems such as housing, supermarkets, networking events and more. The team applied various data collection methods, such as literature studies, interviews, and surveys to formulate correlations between the entrepreneurial market around science parks, and highly sought-after conveniences by job seekers, in the U.S. and China. The team offers informed conclusions, advising which supports to develop further to continue to attract overseas returnees. Additionally, they found providing increased residential spaces, supermarkets, and nearby casual meeting spaces can help attract young talent and overseas returnees to an innovation park
