The city announced at the weekend that free accommodation for university graduate job seekers have been extended from seven to 15 days.
Always keenly aware of emerging challenges, it is determined to capitalize on the artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics boom.
A vibrant venture capital market, a unique environment that encourages creativity and technological advancement, and an army of ambitious entrepreneurs allow Shenzhen to nurture industry giants including Huawei, Tencent, BYD, and DJI.
