I. Case Introduction 

A packaging company that has been deeply rooted in the industry for over twenty years encountered core challenges such as weak intellectual property reserves and unstandardized R&D management when it initiated the application process for a high-tech enterprise and a specialized and innovative enterprise in 2021. ZYIP has formulated the strategy of "serial coordination and precise breakthrough" for itself. Through the three-round drive of intellectual property layout, tax and finance regulation guidance, and enhancement of research and development capabilities, it ultimately helped the enterprise successfully maintain the national high-level qualification and be awarded the title of "National Small and Medium-sized High-tech Enterprise", earning nearly 5 million yuan in policy rewards.
