Statistics showed that Hangzhou's actual use of foreign capital reached 6.086 billion U.S. dollars in January-September, up 19.21 percent year on year.

Many transnational industrial incubation platforms, such as the China Australia Medtech Innovation Park and the Sino-Finnish Technology Industrial Park, have settled in the city, driving local industrial transformation and upgrading.
Besides, Hangzhou has also improved its government services, cut taxes and fees, and streamlined administrative procedures, aiming at building a world-class business environment.
To promote innovation and entrepreneurship, Hangzhou has set up government funds, policy-based technology guarantees, special funds for technology-related small and medium-sized enterprises, and established technology banks in partnership with major banks.
The city also made breakthroughs in tax reduction. Data showed that 2.309 billion yuan of tax has been reduced for 116,300 enterprises since 2018. Meanwhile, the city's value-added tax reform has saved companies 4.105 billion yuan of taxes.
