The selection is closely related to the theme of "Opening and Talent Introduction". A total of 54 indicators were used for the vote, including the overall status of each city in attracting foreign talents, serving foreign talents, giving play to the role of foreign talents, “work convenience” and “life convenience” of foreign talents, social environment, mutual evaluation, urban outwardness and other five dimensions.

This year, it ranks 7th in the country as the 'Most Attractive City' list. It shows Ningbo's efforts in attracting talents."
