On August 14, 2025, the Shenzhen Marine Science and Technology (Dapeng New Area, Nan'ao) Innovation Testing Platform was officially inaugurated, marking the official operation of an open marine experimental field that integrates scientific research testing, achievement transformation, and ecological protection.
Leaders from various organizations, including the Shenzhen Marine Development Bureau, Shenzhen Science and Technology Innovation Bureau, the Ministry of Natural Resources' Shenzhen Marine Center, Shenzhen Marine Development Promotion Center, and Dapeng New Area, as well as representatives from over 10 marine-related universities and enterprises such as the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guangdong Ocean University Shenzhen Research Institute, and Ocean Plan attended the event.
As an innovative enterprise deeply engaged in the marine science and technology field, Ocean Plan witnessed the vast potential and future development opportunities of marine science and technology innovation at this historic moment.
A New High Ground for Marine Science and Technology Testing
The platform is located in the Shixia Bay waters and is one of the open marine experimental zones of the Dapeng Bay Marine Test Field, which operates under the "One Base, Multiple Testing Areas" model. It falls within the scope of the Dapeng Bay National-Level Marine Ranch Demonstration Zone Area 1 and is open for testing reservations to marine-related scientific research enterprises across the country.
With a stable testing environment, well-equipped dock facilities, and comprehensive testing capabilities, the platform is well-planned, featuring areas such as a popular science research zone, multifunctional platforms, and a coral zone. It has the capacity to test underwater and surface instruments, such as marine in-situ instruments, sensing and detection devices, small intelligent boats, and smart underwater equipment. The platform provides critical technology verification and incubation services for industries like marine equipment, marine biology, and smart oceans, offering vast space and potential for development.
Accelerating the Transformation of Marine Technology Achievements
The completion of the platform not only helps enterprises reduce costs, improve efficiency, and accelerate innovation, but also accelerates the creation of a full-process innovation ecosystem that spans "basic research—technology breakthroughs—achievement transformation—tech finance—talent support." It also supports a full-chain service system of "technology research and development—testing and verification—achievement transformation," while promoting deep integration between industry, academia, and research, and building a close cooperation bridge between research institutions, enterprises, and government.
Supporting Breakthroughs in Marine Science and Technology Innovation
With the launch of the platform, the Shenzhen Marine Science and Technology Innovation Testing Platform will become an important vehicle for driving marine technology progress.
As a local marine technology enterprise in Shenzhen, Ocean Plan will continue to leverage its technical advantages with the support of the platform. Together with industry partners, the company will promote the sustainable development of the marine industry, accelerate the transformation and application of marine technology achievements, and contribute to breakthroughs in marine technology innovation, helping Shenzhen become a global marine center city!
