Guangming District is one of nine districts in the city of Shenzhen. The district, bordering the city of Dongguan in the Northwest of Shenzhen, was created in 2007 as a "functional area" of Bao'an District.[2][3] In May 2018, it became a formal administrative division.[4]
Guangming District has a total area of 156.1 square kilometers and a resident population of 1,095,300 residents.[5] In 2020, Guangming District achieved a regional GDP of 110.77 billion yuan, an increase of 5.7%, the second-fastest growth rate in Shenzhen City.[6] The initial formation of a new generation of emerging industries clustered development pattern regarding information technology, new materials, and biomedicine is also achieved.
Since Guangming District is located in the central axis of Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong, an important node of the GZ-SZ Science & Technology Innovation Corridor, it was given the mission to build a world-class Science City and the northern center of Shenzhen by the municipal government.[7][8] The real progress of the Guangming Science City project is about 78% complete in August 2021.[7]
