On September 22nd, the Party Committee of the National Development and Reform Commission of the Communist Party of China released a public notice regarding the progress of rectification for the third round of the 20th Central Commission's inspection.
Regarding the progress of the matters requiring long-term rectification (Part Three), the notification states:
We will focus on guiding and promoting local areas to create new growth engines such as artificial intelligence, biomanufacturing, and low-altitude economy based on their own conditions. We will guide local areas to focus on the development of advantageous industries and implement "artificial intelligence +" in these industries. We will organize a number of "artificial intelligence +" major projects in important fields, support the construction of the national artificial intelligence industry-academy integration innovation platform, and promote the continuous improvement of the transformation effect of artificial intelligence into real productive forces. We will promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, effectively guiding local areas to develop new quality productive forces based on their own conditions. We will promote the introduction of policies to promote the high-quality development of the low-altitude economy, establish a rules and regulations system based on safety supervision, guide and promote local areas to conduct forward-looking research and layout of infrastructure in an appropriate manner, deepen the research and application of low-altitude equipment development, expand low-altitude application scenarios based on local conditions, and promote the safe and healthy development of the low-altitude economy.
To facilitate the transformation and upgrading of traditional light industries, the strategic importance of bio-manufacturing has been elevated to an unprecedented level.
It is important to note that on the 18th of this month, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and three other departments jointly released the "Work Plan for Stabilizing Growth in the Light Industry (2025-2026)", specifically mentioning support for the bio-based, degradable materials and bio-manufacturing industries.

Bio-based and bio-manufacturing, another official document from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology!
Obviously, biological manufacturing is regarded as "an important part of the upgrading of the light industry", especially in the light industrial sectors such as plastic products and packaging, textile and clothing industry, food and beverage industry, household daily care and cosmetics industry, leather and paper industry, etc.
Biotechnology, with its green, efficient and precise characteristics, is systematically transforming the light industry from the old model of "resource-consuming" and "cost-competitive" to a new paradigm of green, intelligent and high-end transformation through dimensions such as raw material revolution, process innovation, functional upgrading, and industrial chain security.
In conclusion, the biomanufacturing industry will enter a new stage of rapid development characterized by clear policies, specific support, and close integration with the real economy.
