BEIJING -- Beijing has released new measures to attract more foreign talent to the capital, especially to its high-tech hub Zhongguancun Science Park, according to the Beijing government press office Tuesday.

Of the 20 new measures, five measures aim to facilitate the entry and exit of foreign talent in the capital, including eased requirements for permanent residency permits.

Six measures were targeted to lift controls over recruitment and use of international talent, and four measures focused on building a sound start-up and innovation environment for foreign workers.

Other moves will enhance social security services for foreign talent, including easing procedures for their accommodation registration and creating better conditions for their children's education.
