In 2025, North China's Shanxi province will focus on five key areas to drive investment and promote high-quality development.

To enhance overall coordination, Shanxi will establish a province-wide investment promotion coordination mechanism, strengthening coordination among provincial, municipal, county, and development zone systems. Efforts will also be made to advance coordinated investment promotion in key industries by enhancing alignment with the relevant departments overseeing these industries.

Shanxi will continue to deepen institutional and mechanism reforms for investment promotion, establish a comprehensive monitoring and analysis system for investment attraction, and implement mechanisms such as "government + industrial chain leaders + parks" linkage to strengthen top-level design.

To optimize the investment environment, Shanxi will advance the construction of a smart investment big data platform, enhance customer resources and expert databases, establish a dynamic list of participating companies at exhibitions, and improve the professional capabilities of the investment promotion team.

Major investment promotion activities will be planned to attract long-term investments, and innovative methods will be adopted. Efforts will be made to attract and utilize foreign capital, strengthen regional interaction and communication, and integrate investment attraction with talent attraction.

A joint supervision mechanism for complaint cases will be established to enhance full-cycle service for investment enterprises. The implementation of signed projects from major investment promotion activities will be tracked by continuously researching and supervising the projects.

This year, the province's target amount for signed investment attraction projects is 1.2 trillion yuan ($164.99 billion), with an implementation rate of over 40 percent.
