On March 10, 2026, Hangzhou's Xiaoshan district released a ten-point plan to heavily subsidize the OpenClaw and OPC-STC AI agent ecosystems. The policy includes up to 20 million yuan in computing subsidies, token consumption rebates, and a 50 million yuan dedicated fund, signaling a strong push to capture the emerging AI track. Dubbed the "Ten Lobster-Breeding Measures," the package covers everything from infrastructure compute to startup financing.
Compute, Token & Data Procurement Subsidies
For the cost-sensitive base layer, OPC-STC enterprises renting computing power for OpenClaw-based AI agent development can receive a 50% "computing voucher" subsidy, capped at 20 million yuan per company per year. Token fees for invoking domestic multimodal large models in AIGC creation are subsidized at 30% (annual cap 100,000 yuan). Purchasing high-quality datasets from trusted data spaces also qualifies for a 30% rebate, up to 2 million yuan.
Office Space, Talent Grants & 50M Fund
The measures extend to ecosystem nurturing: qualifying firms can get up to 6 months free office space and 100 rooms for up to 3 months of free housing. Master's, doctoral and graduate students receive up to 150,000 yuan living subsidies plus 36,000 yuan in rental aid; top-tier talent can claim rental subsidies of 240,000 yuan over five years. A "competition-based evaluation" mechanism provides up to 4.5 million yuan per deep-OpenClaw startup project. Moreover, the district is activating its "Chaoqihang" angel guidance fund to establish a 50 million yuan special fund, precisely targeting the OpenClaw open-source AI agent sector and offering diversified financing channels.
