A 'Returnee Entrepreneurship Park' was launched at a ceremony in Beijing on Tuesday in a bid to help returnees start businesses and incubate programs for long term development.

Hosted by Chinese Returned Overseas Scholars Entrepreneur Parks' Alliance and Haidian District's Bureau of Forestry, the park aims to encourage mass entrepreneurship and innovation as well as look for methods to combine forestry resources with technology to deepen eco-innovation.

More than 80 representatives including investment institutions, entrepreneurs and returnees joined the ceremony and witnessed the opening of the park’s training camp as well as road show of potential start-up programs.

The park will host lectures and road shows for returnees and also provide returnees with policy interpretation and opportunities to share their experiences.

"We aim to build a demonstration base and a mature model that can be promoted nationwide and form a network for returnee entrepreneurs," he said.
