Headquarter economy refers to the cluster layout formed by a region's unique resource advantages to attract the headquarters of various enterprises (institutions), which can bring many spillover effects such as tax supply, industrial agglomeration, consumption drive, employment multiplier, capital amplification and so on to the regional economic development.
After moving into the "trillion city", focusing on high-end industries to improve the carrying capacity, and developing and expanding the headquarters economy with large volume, high energy level, and excellent environment is undoubtedly an important support for Changzhou to promote high-quality economic development and accelerate the construction of the Yangtze River Delta Industrial Innovation Center. To this end, the Measures put forward the goal: by 2025, the number of headquarters enterprises in the city will reach more than 100, including more than 20 headquarters enterprises of 10 billion level.
The Measures contain ten measures, covering the cultivation, support and introduction of headquarters enterprises. The specific contents are as follows:
Encourage mergers and acquisitions to improve quality. Support listed headquarters enterprises to merge and reorganize enterprises outside the city around the main business, and give rewards to qualified headquarters enterprises with a maximum of 5 million yuan by reference to the business development after enterprise merger and reorganization.
Highlight the leading role. Support the headquarters enterprises to actively drive the surrounding upstream and downstream industrial chains, and give rewards to qualified headquarters enterprises with the maximum of 1 million yuan per year by referring to the matching rate of the enterprise's industrial chain.
Strengthen function support. Support headquarter enterprises to highlight their functions. For headquarter enterprises with R&D investment of more than 100 million yuan or R&D investment accounting for more than 5% of sales revenue, rewards will be given based on the growth of enterprise R&D investment, with a maximum of 1 million yuan per year.

The subsidy will be paid in three years at the rate of 40%, 30%, and 30% from the year of purchase. The subsidized buildings may not be rented or sold or used for other purposes within five years.
Provide land use guarantee. For headquarters building projects built by headquarters enterprises in line with territorial and spatial planning, priority should be given to land use plans, so as to ensure that construction land is guaranteed. Explore the transfer of land for headquarters enterprises with "design scheme". Headquarters enterprises are encouraged to make economical and intensive use of their own industrial land, improve the existing land utilization rate and floor area ratio without changing the use, and no longer increase the land price. Open a green channel for real estate registration of headquarters enterprises, realize the issuance of construction land planning license, construction project planning license and construction land use right real estate license upon delivery of the land, and promote the "zero material" handling of the first registration of real estate for headquarters enterprises, and the issuance of real estate property certificate upon completion of filing.

The customs will focus on trade facilitation for qualified headquarters enterprises, innovate regulatory measures, and provide customs clearance facilities for their import and export goods. We will make every effort to ensure the safe production and stable operation of headquarters enterprises, and provide free policy presentations, public legal services, credit repair, public opinion disposal, publicity and promotion and other services.
