Chen Gang, Chief Research Director and Head of the Research Institute of Orient Securities: The competition has become an important platform to promote the development of the dual-carbon industry.

With the continuous deepening of the "Double Carbon" strategy, carbon neutrality has become a key issue of global consensus. Seizing this significant strategic opportunity and deeply integrating the concept of sustainable development into the entire cycle of the industrial chain and value chain has become a new engine for promoting social progress and economic development.

In this context, 36Kr once again joined hands with Orient Securities and its subsidiaries Dongzheng Innovation and Dongzheng Capital to jointly launch the third "Double Carbon Star Species · Sustainable Innovation Competition". The competition focuses on three major tracks: the wind-solar-hydrogen-storage industrial chain, the new energy vehicle industrial chain, and the low-carbon technology industrial chain, with the expectation of uncovering innovative enterprises with greater investment value and market vitality within the industrial chain.

On October 11, the final of the third Double Carbon Star Species · Sustainable Innovation Competition was officially completed at the China Financial Information Center in Shanghai. At the scene, Mr. Chen Gang, the Chief Research Director and Institute Director of Orient Securities, delivered a speech titled "The Competition Has Become an Important Platform for Promoting the Development of the Double Carbon Industry".

With the in-depth implementation of the "Double Carbon" strategy, carbon neutrality has become an important issue of global consensus. Carbon neutrality is also an unprecedented strategic opportunity for us. Deeply integrating the concept of sustainable development into the entire cycle of the industrial chain has become a new engine for promoting social progress and economic development. Against this backdrop, 36Kr, in collaboration with Orient Securities and its subsidiaries, once again launches this competition, aiming to focus on three key tracks: wind-solar-hydrogen-storage, new energy vehicles, and low-carbon technology, to uncover innovative enterprises with investment value and market vitality.

In the past two years, the "Double Carbon Star Species · Sustainable Innovation Competition" has become an important platform for promoting the development of the double carbon industry. Here, we have witnessed the birth of many excellent ideas and projects, which not only demonstrate the power of technology but also reflect the participants' firm belief in sustainable development. We believe that today's final will be a feast of innovation and wisdom, and we look forward to every participant being able to fully showcase their talents and achievements here.

Here, I would like to especially thank all the partners, judges, and audiences who support this competition. Your participation and support are an important force for us to promote the cause of sustainable development. We expect to continue to gather and integrate more government, academic, capital, and market resources related to the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain through this platform, to promote the deep integration of each link, and to assist the growth of participating enterprises.

Today, those standing here are not only competitors but also pioneers of future sustainable development. I hope that in the following competition, everyone can show their best selves and strive to stand out in this innovation contest. No matter the result, your efforts and achievements are an important part of promoting the progress of the industry.
