He noted that over the years, HBIS Group has maintained a strong and cooperative relationship with China Iron & Steel Research Institute, advancing mutually beneficial development through pragmatic collaboration. The 15th Five-Year Plan period represents a pivotal phase for HBIS as it transitions from “scale leadership” to “value-driven leadership.” To this end, HBIS will steadfastly implement its innovation-driven development strategy, deeply integrate technological innovation with industrial innovation, and continuously enhance both its business performance and core competitiveness. China Iron & Steel Research Institute is the largest comprehensive research, development, and high-tech industrialization institution in China’s metallurgical sector. It is hoped that the two parties will further deepen their multi-dimensional innovation cooperation, fully leverage their respective strengths, promote joint research on technologies and shared utilization of research outcomes, and make greater contributions to serving national strategies and jointly driving the transformation, upgrading, and high-quality development of the steel industry.

During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, CIRS will stay true to its core responsibilities and main business, leverage its strengths, strengthen synergy, and strive to deliver higher-quality scientific and technological services. In areas such as steel materials R&D, smart manufacturing, green and low-carbon technologies, and talent development, CIRS and HBIS Group have ample opportunities for collaborative efforts. In light of major national strategies and the evolving needs of the steel industry, it is hoped that the two parties will join forces to deepen systematic innovation cooperation, promote the industrial application and engineering implementation of innovative solutions, and share the technological achievements and economic value generated by future development.
