In recent years, Heilongjiang Province has focused on revitalization and development needs by successively formulating and implementing policy measures such as the “60 Measures for Revitalizing Talent in the New Era” and “Several Provisions on Introducing High-Level Talents.” These efforts aim to build a regionally competitive talent policy system, attract and gather various outstanding talents for innovation, entrepreneurship, and achievement, and establish a comprehensive, multi-level talent service system to ensure talents are attracted, retained, and effectively utilized. With the support of talent policies, an increasing number of high-level talents have led the establishment of high-tech enterprises, providing solid support for the comprehensive revitalization of Heilongjiang’s industries. By the end of 2024, the number of national high-tech enterprises in Heilongjiang had increased to 5,040, achieving the “14th Five-Year Plan” target of over 5,000 high-tech enterprises in the province one year ahead of schedule.
Policy Support: The Land of Heilongjiang Welcomes Talents from All Over
In policy design, Heilongjiang Province implements precise measures, offering a maximum reward of 500,000 yuan for high-level talents from home and abroad who lead the establishment of newly recognized high-tech enterprises in the province, a one-time reward of 1 million yuan for newly recognized national specialized and new “little giant” enterprises, and a one-time reward of 2 million yuan for newly recognized national technology innovation demonstration enterprises, fully supporting scientific and technological talents in innovation and entrepreneurship in Heilongjiang. To address the shortage of talents in private enterprises, Heilongjiang innovatively introduced the “Chief Technology Officer” system, selecting 400 experts from universities and research institutes to work in enterprises, using a model of “enterprises posing problems, research solving them, and the market evaluating results” to break the dual dilemma of small and medium-sized enterprises facing difficulty in attracting talents and difficulty in transforming scientific research achievements. Additionally, Heilongjiang provides a series of high-quality and efficient services for high-level talents, optimizing the environment for living and working. Across the province, from talent classification evaluation to funding support, from platform building to service guarantees, a synergy of talent revitalization policies has formed, allowing more and more scientific and technological talents to realize their life value in the land of Heilongjiang.
Enterprise Empowerment: Building a “Training Ground” for Talent Growth
Harbin Core-Day Technology Co., Ltd., established in 2007, has secured multiple national projects with its strong technical strength and stands as a benchmark for technological innovation among private enterprises in Heilongjiang. In attracting and cultivating talents, the company focuses on fully utilizing the policy measures for talent revitalization in the new era, deeply integrating talent cultivation with project breakthroughs to form a virtuous cycle of “cultivating talents through projects and promoting innovation through talents.” “Private enterprises have relatively few high-end research talents, so we must build our own ‘training ground,'” said a representative from the company.
A representative from the company introduced that for talents with junior and intermediate professional titles, the company relies on provincial project resources to tailor growth paths: allowing young talents to deeply participate in patent applications and project applications, accumulating experience in practice; encouraging technical backbone to lead sub-topics, enhancing capabilities through tackling difficulties. This cultivation model of “giving responsibility, providing opportunities, and offering support” has continuously strengthened the talent team. Currently, the company has seen the emergence of several outstanding scientific and technological talents who have grown into provincial-level high-level talents. Particularly, core technical talents, with the help of policy empowerment and enterprise platform building, can not only participate in major national projects but also enjoy comprehensive support such as patent application incentives and research funding guarantees.
Talent Contribution: Hardcore Achievements Drive New Breakthroughs in Core Technologies
The 60 Measures for Talent Revitalization state that professional technical personnel engaged in the transformation of scientific and technological achievements will undergo classified evaluation when participating in professional title reviews, and those with significant results can be evaluated and appointed beyond the usual regulations as stipulated. The “Implementation Plan for Deepening the Reform of the Professional Title System for Natural Science Researchers in Heilongjiang Province” clearly indicates that professional technical personnel who achieve breakthrough major innovations can be directly promoted to senior professional titles without being limited by years of service. With the support of Heilongjiang’s talent revitalization policies, a representative stood out in professional title reviews. In 2024, relying on hardcore achievements in the field of piezoelectric nano-precision motion, this representative was exceptionally evaluated and awarded a senior professional title in mechanical engineering, becoming a typical example of high-end talent growth in private enterprises in Heilongjiang. The representative said that following the conventional promotion path, from
