The Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC) is close to over 14 neighbouring major universities and colleges in Yangpu District of Shanghai. Covering 840,000 sq.m. (84 hectares) of land, this city-core development aims to create an environment that fosters technological innovation and entrepreneurship similar to that of Silicon Valley in the United States and to provide "live-work" accommodation inspired by the Left Bank in Paris. Placing strong emphasis on education, technology, culture, research and business incubation, KIC will be a multi-function community where people live, study, work and relax.

KIC consists of four functionally distinct but complementary components:

	KIC Plaza - a work, business, innovation, learning, leisure, entertainment and cultural core
	KIC Village - a mixed-use area comprising residential accommodation, office buildings, retail shops and recreational amenities
	KIC Tech Park - a R&D area for high technological pursuits
	Jiangwan Sports Centre - a sports area featuring Jiangwan Stadium, Jiangwan Swimming Pool, Jiangwan Gymnasium and other athletic facilities PROPERTY SALES : Ms. Kammy Lau : (86 21) 6511 6881 : (86 21) 6511 1778 : kammy.lau@shuion.com.cn PROPERTY LEASING : Mr. Leslie Fan : (86 21) 6385 9888 ext 23 : (86 21) 6384 9898 : leslie.fan@shuion.com.cn PROPERTY MANAGEMENT : Mr. Ricky Lo : (86 21) 6551 6906 : (86 21) 6551 6917 : ricky.lo@synergisshuion.com.cn OPERATIONS (COMMUNICATIONS & AFFAIRS) : Ms. Wendy Jiang : (86 21) 6511 0333 : (86 21) 6511 0799 : kic.operations@shuion.com.cn
