To better improve its business environment, the Kunming Area of China (Yunnan) Pilot Free Trade Zone（Kunming Economic and Technological Development Zone) (hereinafter referred to as Kunming Area) has set up 21 business environment observation sites in its clusters of enterprises, covering manufacturing, biological medicine, trade service, information consultation, warehouse logistics and other fields. The International Business Environment Observation Site set up in Yunnan Business Incubator of Overseas Returnees Technology Co., Ltd is one of them. 

Yunnan Business Incubator of Overseas Returnees is now the biggest incubator for technology enterprises with the highest standards in Yunnan province, and also the biggest innovation park for international students and the biggest service park for small and medium-sized enterprises in Yunnan province. Nearly 300 enterprises have entered the park, including more than 20 high-tech enterprises, more than 60 technology enterprises and 13 enterprises established by international students.

"I'm very proud to become a business environment observer of the Kunming Area of China (Yunnan) Pilot Free Trade Zone（Kunming Economic and Technological Development Zone). I hope I can contribute to Kunming's international development through hard work”, said Mark Respinger, an international business environment observer from Australia.
