01
The hierarchy to map
Central policy direction → Beijing municipal implementation → District-level specialization → Science city / development zone / industrial park / incubator → Founder-level services, infrastructure and opportunities.
02
Why the density matters
Future research will distinguish policy density, research density, talent density, institutional density, AI infrastructure density, and enterprise / capital density. The purpose is to show operating gravity, not to promise access.
03
Eligibility remains a separate gate
A policy, programme, service desk, incubator or incentive can exist without applying to a particular foreign founder, entity, sector, district, application window or project. Current eligibility and decisions remain with the responsible body.
