Recently, the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone (hereinafter referred to as the "Development Zone") released its 2025 economic data, revealing that its economic aggregate has surpassed the 4 trillion yuan mark for the first time. The annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) reached 401.21 billion yuan, representing a year-on-year increase of 10.7%, with its growth rate continuing to lead among national-level economic development zones.
The core driver behind this sustained high-speed economic growth stems from continuous breakthroughs in its leading industries. BOE's sixth-generation new semiconductor display device production line achieved full-scale mass production; the all-new electric CLA model commenced production and rolled off the line at Beijing Benz's Yizhuang plant... In 2025, the Development Zone's four leading industries maintained strong momentum, with a surge of new corporate achievements emerging like a spring tide, serving as a vital engine for enhancing economic quality and volume. Data shows that in 2025, the Development Zone's total industrial output value increased by 12% year-on-year, with several leading industries maintaining double-digit growth. Specifically, the high-end automobile and new energy intelligent vehicle industry saw its output value grow by 17.4% year-on-year; the new-generation information technology industry's output value increased by 19.3% year-on-year; and the robotics and intelligent manufacturing industry's output value rose by 5.1% year-on-year.
In 2025, producer services, represented by information services and the financial industry, demonstrated a significant empowering effect. From January to November, the information services sector achieved revenue of 130.28 billion yuan, up 16.7% year-on-year; for the full year, the financial industry's two key net income indicators grew by 23.1% year-on-year. Driven by companies such as JD.com, the wholesale and retail trade sector's annual merchandise sales increased by 15.1% year-on-year.
The Development Zone has consistently adhered to an innovation-driven strategy, promoting the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation with industrial innovation, thereby continuously injecting new vitality into economic development. From January to November 2025, R&D expenses at large and medium-sized key enterprises grew by 31.8% year-on-year, with the growth rate leading the entire city.
Investment signifies future development potential and serves as a crucial lever for strengthening the foundation of the Development Zone's high-precision and advanced industrial clusters and for deepening the integration of industry and urban functions. In 2025, the Development Zone's fixed-asset investment scale remained at the hundred-billion-yuan level for the third consecutive year. A number of leading and influential major industrial projects and public welfare projects, such as the Sanofi insulin API project and the large-scale commercial complex MixC, are accelerating their implementation, painting a grand blueprint for regional development.
It is reported that, aiming for its fourth consecutive hundred-billion-yuan investment target, the Development Zone will commence construction on several key projects this year. These include the Shouyao Holdings new drug R&D and industrialisation base project, the Hangyu Zhizao headquarters and lightweight component industrialisation base project, and the Beijing Normal University Affiliated High School Jingkai School, among others, driving high-quality development through high-quality projects.
