Xuelang town, located in Wuxi, offers unique advantages for IoT development. Wuxi itself is the core development center for the IoT industry.

Relying on Wuxi's advanced IoT foundation and manufacturing resources, Xuelang town plans to build distinctive industries by constructing three industrial parks --Xuelang IoT Industrial Park, Yundu Big Data Industrial Park and Langchao Big Data Industial Park -- to gather third-party platform companies and leading manufacturing enterprises.

The little town has already achieved great improvements. The industrial parks and financial districts are under construction and infrastructure facilities have been improved a lot.
