Headquarter economy is an important form of the world's economy development, which emerges under the background of economic globalization and informatization, as well as a manifestation of urban economic development level and resources allocation capability. As a new bright spot of world's economy, the headquarter economy has become a new idea and perspective to develop regional economy in China. Nowadays, the key cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Qingdao, Xian, Wuhan, etc. attract many headquarter enterprises. It's a key strategy to develop headquarters economy, which will promote city upgrading and transformation and accelerate the economic development methods during the "Twelfth Five-year" Plan period. That's mainly because as a new economic format, headquarters economy not only can enhance the fast, sustainable and steady development of regional economy, but also contributes to regional taxation.

Due to the advantages of talents, information, living convenience and so on, key cities keep attracting a large number of enterprises. Moreover, key cities are the first place to go when graduates hunt for jobs.

At present, the world's economy has gradually stepped into the post international financial crisis period, thus the global economy enters a stage of new strategic adjustment. The global economy begins to grow at a slow pace; great changes will be taken place in supply and demand structure; trade protectionism tends to be strengthened; as well as the world's economy and trade development will face a lot of uncertainties. Furthermore, when traditional industrial region enters into a certain development stage, it will face the transformation pressure.

The demand for headquarters economy happens to require the market provided by services enterprises. The combination of both the demand and market will fundamentally improve the industrial format, from general processing manufacturing and ordinary trading logistics to the integration economic format of headquarters economy and high-end services economy, then finally achieve city transformation and upgrading.
