Shanghai's Xuhui district opened an immigrants' integration service station at the West Bund AI Valley on Dec 27.

The station aims to strengthen outreaches and consultations on immigration policies, talent services, and legal education.

The station is designed to attract international talent to work, live, and settle in the West Bund area, enhancing the "talent magnet" effect of the valley and contributing to the development of Xuhui district.

By addressing the needs of foreign nationals, the station is expected to foster grassroots cultural exchanges and help expats integrate smoothly into Shanghai.

The service station offers six major functions, including accommodation registration for foreign nationals, visa and permanent residence policy consultations, legal education, cultural exchange, and entrepreneurship guidance.

The West Bund area is home to leading companies in artificial intelligence, including Microsoft, Huawei, and Alibaba, as well as world-class research institutions. It has attracted numerous high-level talents and projects, including Turing Award winners and academicians.
