Cross-border e-commerce entrepreneur Mr. Li was pleasantly surprised by the efficiency of Yinxing Sub-district's services. He had anticipated a long and arduous process involving multiple trips and months of waiting. However, the staff's comprehensive assistance from business license application to office location search made the entire journey seamless and swift.

Leveraging the "multi-grid integration" mechanism driven by Party building, Yinxing's third comprehensive grid has effectively addressed the "first-order barrier" for cross-border entrepreneurs. It has turned the challenge of "not knowing where to start" into highly efficient one-stop services.

Unblocking the First Step of Cross-Border Entrepreneurship: Overcoming Certification Hurdles with Technical Breakthroughs

For cross-border entrepreneurs, the application for a business license often hits a wall right at the start. The mismatch between cross-border identity information and the real-name system interface frequently results in the rejection of electronic signature certification, posing a significant barrier.

Via grid-based joint meetings, the third comprehensive grid rallies Party members and key staff from the business environment office and the market regulation office to form an elite service team to pinpoint and resolve technical obstacles. They collaborate with the technical department of the district market regulation administration to clarify the compatibility standards and technical parameters of cross-border identity authentication. They reinforce link set by partnering with the Shanghai Electronic Authority Co., Ltd. to recalibrate the corporate legal person identity information database and reopen the verification channel in real time. They also explore sample empowerment by one-click pushing the Business License Application Standardization Material Package through the "Exclusive Enterprise Webpage" guiding entrepreneurs from groping in the dark to following a clear path.

Overcoming Location Selection Challenges: Resource Integration Delivers Optimal Solutions for Enterprises

Start-up companies often struggle with unclear policies for bonded warehouse access and potential property rights risks, making traditional intermediary services inadequate. To address this, the service team has collaborated with the Sixth Branch of the Yangpu Investment Service Development Center to launch a targeted initiative. By focusing on detailed profiling, they have used intelligent matching to connect enterprises with the shared warehouse in the industrial park on Jungong Road, considering factors such as deposit guarantees, tax incentives, and warehouse logistics. Legal advisors are stationed on-site to review lease contracts for bonded warehouses, clarifying key terms like deposit return conditions and data security ownership. Furthermore, through the district's "Digital Governance for Business" platform, they directly push electronic business licenses and "one address, one certificate" documents to the customs filing system, reducing the need for in-person visits by 60%.

Shattering Cyclical Barriers: Comprehensive Support for Business Growth

"Past experiences led me to believe that Party building services were more theoretical than practical. But this time, measures like real-name authentication and shared warehousing have directly tackled our most pressing issues," Mr. Li shared in a follow-up. He noted that the sub-district did not just assist with start-up challenges; they also provided access to value-added services like financial credit and cross-border settlement.

It brings together a range of tools, including the Heart-warming Service Card, grid-based joint meetings, digital empowerment libraries, and long-effective policy packages. These elements work together to create a seamless process from "demand collection" to "precise order dispatching", "intelligent breakthrough", and "lifelong support". By using digital records to monitor the growth of businesses and targeting obstacles through cross-departmental coordination, it has created a business ecosystem tailored to new industry models. This ecosystem is further enhanced by customized policy packages that include financial guarantees and legal consultations.

The "process bottlenecks" in business services often highlight the underlying strains in grassroots governance. The third comprehensive grid has leveraged the "multi-grid integration" mechanism driven by Party building to turn the resolution of minor issues into a dynamic business ecosystem. By leading with Party building and focusing on precise services, the grid is putting into practice the idea that "optimizing the business environment is about unleashing productive forces and boosting competitiveness".

The comprehensive grid is a collaborative framework for community governance, spearheaded by the Organization Department and Social Work Department of the CPC Shanghai Municipal Committee. This system bridges the gap between sub-districts and residential areas, ensuring seamless coordination. It brings together a diverse array of Party organizations, from those in local residential areas and neighborhoods to those in regional entities and those stationed in sub-districts.
