On the afternoon of the 29th, the Haidian Subbureau of the Municipal Public Security Bureau announced new initiatives titled "Intelligent Protection for Tech Innovation, Secure Chain for the Future" at the Zhongguancun Forum. These initiatives are designed to support high-quality development, introducing specialized immigration facilitation measures for the artificial intelligence industry and measures to build a cybersecurity community in Haidian District. This effort aims to inject public security momentum into Beijing's goal of establishing itself as a world-class hub for the AI industry.
In this inaugural year of the 15th Five-Year Plan period, Haidian District is vigorously constructing a "1+X+1" modern industrial system and building a global source of innovation for artificial intelligence. To support this, Haidian police have launched the "Hai Jing · Artificial Intelligence" package, consisting of ten immigration facilitation measures. This service package is specifically tailored for the AI sector, intended to create a "fast track" for cross-border talent exchange.
Shi Liang, Deputy Director of the Haidian Subbureau, explained that the new measures innovate regional policing cooperation models, enabling Haidian-based companies and talent to access optimal immigration support nationwide. They grant key AI enterprises the autonomous right to recommend high-level foreign talent for permanent residency in China, provide flexible visa guarantees for foreigners interning or starting businesses at AI firms, and attract global youth innovation forces to put down roots in Haidian. A full-process service chain—covering overseas liaison, smooth customs clearance, and campus/enterprise integration—will be established. Dedicated channels for foreign-related affairs will be opened for major international events in the AI field, ensuring that the internationalization level of government services keeps pace with the development speed of Haidian's AI industry. Approval efficiency will be accelerated by opening optimal green channels, giving a clear path for companies expanding overseas operations and effectively reducing cross-border operational costs.
As the integration of artificial intelligence with industries moves into deeper waters, cybersecurity has become an unavoidable imperative for innovation. At the conference, Deputy Director Wang Rong announced measures for building a cybersecurity community in Haidian District, promoting a shift from "point-based defense" to "collaborative governance and sharing." To build a "strong foundation" for cybersecurity, nine joint police-enterprise cybersecurity studios have been established to address prominent risks such as cyber attacks, data breaches, and the infiltration of harmful information. These studios integrate regulatory resources with industry strengths to enhance the self-protection capabilities of networked entities. To build a "protective wall" for multi-party co-governance, a team of professional cyber-police liaisons has been formed to bridge the "last mile" in police-government-enterprise coordination, encouraging businesses to treat cybersecurity not as a hidden cost but as a prerequisite. Furthermore, a "training ground" for technical confrontation has been set up to strengthen capabilities in intelligence early warning and offensive/defensive drills. Focusing on key areas like advanced cyber threat confrontation and AI attack identification, dedicated security toolkits have been launched to help enterprises fortify their security perimeters.
