Nanjing

Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu province, is a major city in Eastern China with a population of over 9.4 million. Situated in the Yangtze River Delta, it’s a significant economic and cultural hub, benefiting from a strategic location and robust transport networks – including one of the world’s largest inland ports. Nanjing holds a unique position as a sub-provincial city, granting it considerable administrative and economic autonomy.

Historically a capital for multiple dynasties, Nanjing today is a dynamic center for education and research. It boasts a high concentration of universities – including several world-ranked institutions like Nanjing University – and consistently ranks among the top cities globally for scientific output, particularly in earth sciences and chemistry. This makes it an appealing base for those in academic or tech-focused remote work.
