The Beijing Stock Exchange (BSE) has reached 300 listed companies, with manufacturing firms accounting for 83 percent of the total, BSE said on Friday.
The listed firms span 37 sectors of 11 industry categories, and the exchange has attracted a cluster of innovative small and medium-sized enterprises in sectors such as new energy, biopharmaceuticals and automobile manufacturing.
Nearly 60 percent of BSE-listed firms have been designated as national-level "little giant" enterprises, which refer to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that use specialized and sophisticated technologies to produce novel and unique products.

The United States is pursuing a doctrine of domination in global energy markets, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with Russian media on Saturday.
"They (the United States) care only about their own well-being. They are ready to defend this prosperity by any means -- coups, abductions, or assassinations of leaders of countries that have natural resources Washington desires. All of this is related to oil," said Lavrov.
Lavrov further asserted that the United States follows the principle that its interests always take precedence over international agreements.
He pointed out that the United States has historically welcomed -- and continues to welcome -- Russia's marginalization in European energy markets. He emphasized that for the United States to cooperate with Russia, it must first respect Russia's interests.
