The Global Youth Talent Center of Guangming Science City (GTC) was officially launched on July 30, during an inauguration event held at the Talent Port of Guangming Science City. The launch marks a significant step forward in Guangming's ambition to become a high-level talent hub within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
With a vision to attract international youth for innovation, entrepreneurship, and long-term development in Shenzhen, the center is positioned as a global magnet for top young talent. It plans to open overseas branches to tell the story of Guangming's innovation journey to the world, while enhancing Guangming Science City's international visibility.
At the launch event, local officials unveiled the center alongside over 20 international alumni organizations, representatives from leading companies such as Shenzhen Medical Academy of Research and Translation, and young sci-tech innovators. The event featured high-level dialogues and resource-matching activities to foster meaningful collaboration between international talent and Guangming's innovation ecosystem.
Guangming has recently rolled out a district-level talent development plan—the first of its kind in Shenzhen. Its “Talent Highland Initiative” includes comprehensive policies such as stress-free business setup, residence, travel, and life services, providing solid support for young global professionals looking to build their future in Guangming.
GTC aims to become the first stop for young talent returning to or coming to Shenzhen, offering tailored recruitment events, entrepreneurship support, company visits, and cultural exchanges. The first overseas branch is expected to open in Switzerland by the end of the year, with further “cloud talent” initiatives in partnership with global alumni networks.
Shenzhen Medical Academy of Research and Translation also presented its latest recruitment strategy and highlighted its vision to work with GTC in attracting global research talent. By linking industry leaders, academic institutions, and international associations, GTC aims to match young talent more precisely with suitable career paths.
