It is reported that representatives from government science and technology innovation authorities, national entrepreneurial funds, industrial service platforms, front-line investment institutions, and global entrepreneurial communities from seven countries including the United States, Malaysia, South Korea, New Zealand, Egypt, Thailand, and Mexico have been officially hired as international entrepreneurial mentors. Fuxing Island’s international technological innovation incubation network has taken a “prototype”. The addition of international entrepreneurial mentors has strengthened the "International Science and Technology Friendship Circle" of "Fuxing Island Innovation and Incubation Exchange" and will help Fuxing Island become a hub for the transformation of hard science and technology achievements with two-way interconnection and global links: it will not only bring mature overseas incubation systems and emerging market track opportunities to domestic island projects, but also export science and technology enterprises and technical solutions from Shanghai, Yangpu and Fuxing Island to the global market, attracting global innovation resources to land on Fuxing Island.

Hundreds of guests from representatives of entrepreneurial institutions from around the world, key domestic scientific research institutions, leading investment institutions, and benchmark incubators conducted in-depth exchanges on topics such as hard technology incubation, transformation of university achievements, and co-construction of global innovation ecosystems to outline a blueprint for the future. This conference is a key action to consolidate Shanghai's strategy of building a globally influential science and technology innovation center, and will further promote the integration of Shanghai's urban transformation and renewal and innovation ecology.

According to reports, this Fuxing Island Science and Technology Innovation Incubation Conference is one of the important special events of the 2026 (20th) Global Entrepreneurship Week China Station, building a high-energy platform for entrepreneurs at home and abroad for dialogue, exchange, and collaborative creation. The conference’s keynote speeches and roundtable dialogues were interspersed, focusing on the two core directions of hard technology incubation and international achievement transformation.
