Cooperation Framework Agreement between Meizhou Municipal People’s Government and Sun Yat-sen University” on behalf of the two sides.
SYSU and Jieyang will conduct cooperation in decision-making consultation, technology research and development, talent cultivation, medical services, social construction, cultural cooperation, ecological construction, and establish the city-university cooperation joint meeting system to coordinate and solve major issues in cooperation.
SYSU and Meizhou will have cooperation in the areas of talent cultivation and training, culture, planning, electronic commerce, biomedicine, science and technology, and will establish a university-city cooperation leadership group, consisting of principal leaders, leaders in charge and persons in charge of relevant departments from both sides, to coordinate and solve major issues in cooperation.
By now, SYSU has established comprehensive collaborations with 14 cities in Guangdong Province. What distinguishes these two agreements from the former ones is that the focus of cooperation has moved from the Pearl River Delta area to Jieyang in the eastern region and Meizhou in the northern region of Guangdong Province. The signing of the two agreements indicates that SYSU’s perspective of serving local development is constantly expanding and deepening, and by taking science and technology innovation as the core driving force, SYSU has made a big step forward on the way to serve Guangdong’s innovative regional development.
