This E-city project for Nanjing New Town Science and Technology Park -- "Project Accelerator" -- is customized to service fast-growing companies headquartered in the area and to catalyze regional economic growth. The project will be performed on a standard Build-and-Transfer mode.

An E-city program involves the development of an integrated digital platform and comprehensive information technology facilities, including the development of Safe City, an Emergency Response System and an Information-based Transportation Management System. Mr. Guoshen Tu, Chief Executive Officer of CSST, commented, "We are very pleased to announce this E-city project win in the prominent city of Nanjing.
