On June 10, 2026, Jelena Grubor Stefanovic, Director of the Serbian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Representative Office in China, led a delegation from the Zubin Potok Regional Innovation Center to visit the China-CEEC Innovation Cooperation Research Center (hereinafter referred to as “the Research Center”). The two sides held in-depth discussions on topics such as innovation and entrepreneurship, technology interfacing, and the organization of scientific and technological activities, exploring new pathways for China-Serbia innovation cooperation.

During the meeting, Wu Yuxia, Head of the Research Center, extended a warm welcome to the delegation. The delegation toured the Research Center and participated in a themed symposium. Both sides introduced their respective development overviews, business layouts, and cooperation resources, with a focus on practical matters including the organization of innovation cooperation conferences and youth innovation and entrepreneurship competitions, as well as the signing of bilateral framework cooperation agreements.

After the symposium, to precisely align with Serbia’s industrial development needs, the Research Center arranged the delegation to visit several universities and tech innovation enterprises, including the School of Civil and Transportation Engineering at Ningbo University of Technology, the Ningbo Institute of Intelligent Technology, and PopSmart Technology (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd., facilitating on-site exchanges and collaboration.

Taking this exchange as an opportunity, the Research Center will continue to serve as a platform and bridge, actively promoting the establishment of regular liaison mechanisms between Chinese universities, enterprises, research institutions, and Serbian innovation entities. Focusing on areas of strength such as smart transportation, intelligent healthcare, digital technology, and innovation and entrepreneurship, the Research Center aims to explore multi-level and wide-ranging cooperation models, facilitating the bidirectional flow of technologies, talents, and projects.
