The state attaches great importance to the integration of industry and education and has introduced a series of strong supportive policies, which have pointed out the direction for the development of the industry. Jiangsu Yueda Textile Group will adhere to the development concept of "innovation, coordination, green, openness and sharing", spare no effort to build a "resource sharing" platform, constantly innovate the "collaborative education" model, and jointly create an "industry-university-research transformation" engine.
