BEIJING, Aug. 5 (Xinhua) -- China has rolled out a set of policies to support the high-quality development of the integrated circuit (IC) and software industries.
The measures include tax incentives for companies in the IC and software industries, financial support from government-invested funds and improved intellectual property rights protection for the firms, as well as policies to promote related research, trade, education, market application and international collaboration, according to a statement released by the State Council.
