Hangzhou launched the 2026 Employment Promotion Initiative on May 9, 2026, in a ceremony held at the Alibaba headquarters. The theme for this event was “Hangzhou, Let Employment Blossom,” focusing on promoting the creation of jobs and fostering entrepreneurship.
The initiative featured a range of activities, including keynote speeches, panel discussions, contract signing ceremonies, entrepreneurship mentorship, and dedicated workshops. The goal was to showcase Hangzhou’s commitment to supporting various groups in their pursuit of entrepreneurship.
In attendance were representatives from government departments, business leaders, higher education institutions, and mentors. They collectively endorsed the “Hangzhou Employment Promotion Recommendations” which emphasizes the importance of supporting entrepreneurship and enhancing collaboration among individuals.
The event also kicked off the 2026 Hangzhou Spring Employment Fair, where over 200 employers offered around 3,000 job positions for 2,000 attendees. Sectors represented included artificial intelligence, digital finance, healthcare, and intelligent manufacturing, among others. The job fair aimed to facilitate connections between job seekers and employers.
During the fair, a policy consultation service was introduced, allowing job seekers to engage in “face-to-face” interactions with mentors and advisors. Additionally, a visual representation of the employment landscape was created to help guide attendees.
As part of the event’s ongoing activities, a series of job fairs will take place throughout the year, focusing on policy consultations, career guidance, and entrepreneurship support. These services aim to reach the community and enhance job-seeking opportunities.
This initiative reflects the city’s commitment to addressing the employment challenges faced by its residents, particularly the youth. By fostering a collaborative environment, Hangzhou seeks to empower individuals in their career pursuits.
