On August 29-30, the first-ever Jingshan Tea Professional Skills Innovation Competition (hereinafter referred to as the "Jingshan Tea Competition") was held at the Tea Expo Garden in Yuhang District.
The competition organically integrated how to cultivate tea well, produce tea well, and market tea well. It further expanded channels for tri-sector integration, using the contest to promote training and cultivate new talents for the tea industry. It not only advanced the tea industry but also integrated tea culture and tourism, nurturing a new generation of tea professionals. This injects momentum into rural revitalization and contributes to Yuhang's development as Hangzhou's new urban center.
The event consisted of preliminary and final stages, featuring three categories: "Short Video Creation", "Tea Evaluation and Tea Art Application", and "Tea Marketing Scenario Competition". A total of 32 contestants participated, with 15 advancing to the finals.
