Abstract

Nansha Economic and Technological Development Zone, as a key strategic platform within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA), serves as a vital engine for regional economic growth and industrial upgrading. This paper delves into the integration pathway of “port logistics—port-proximate industry—technological innovation” in Nansha and the pivotal role of policy instruments in spurring regional economic transformation and upgrading. It unveils the rationale underpinning Nansha’s evolution from a conventional industrial base to a hub for new productive forces. The analysis reveals that Nansha must refine policy execution, bolster cross-regional collaboration, and enhance industrial chain coordination. The paper provides recommendations such as streamlining policy procedures and upgrading education and healthcare infrastructure, offering insights into institutional innovation and industrial integration within regional development zones. Furthermore, Nansha’s strategic significance lies not only in its role as a driver for regional economic growth, but also in its potential to serve as a model for innovation and cooperation in the global economic landscape. Additionally, it underscores the significance of Nansha’s strategic advantages in the context of China’s “dual circulation” development strategy, providing a reference for other regional development zones striving for high-quality development through policy and industrial integration.
