Strategic Positioning
Serving the National Strategic Hinterland, Building a New Digital Stronghold
The Bashu Culture Digital Research Institute was established under the joint guidance of the Sichuan Provincial Committee Publicity Department and the Chongqing Municipal Committee Publicity Department. It serves as a core vehicle for deeply implementing the national strategies of the "Chengdu-Chongqing Dual-City Economic Circle" and the "National Cultural Digitization Strategy."
Sichuan is a strategically vital province and a cornerstone of China's national rejuvenation. The Institute is deeply aware of the cultural resilience behind the saying "as long as Sichuan stands, China endures." Rooted in this strategically significant, populous province, we are committed to leveraging cutting-edge digital technology to transform the cultural DNA of this heroic land into new quality productive forces, providing lasting digital cultural momentum for high-quality development in western China.
