Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Notice on Carrying out the Pilot Work for the Industrialization of High-Tech Achievements under the National Key R&D Program", deploying the launch of such pilot work. This pilot work mainly focuses on the fields of advanced manufacturing and new materials under the National Key R&D Program, with pilot applications carried out in two categories: regions and units. It aims to accelerate the transformation of scientific research achievements to the stage of large-scale production and market-oriented operation through measures such as strengthening industrial supply-demand docking, activating the motivation of innovation entities, and optimizing industrialization service guarantees. ### What key fields does the pilot focus on? The National Key R&D Program is a national key research and development initiative formed by integrating the National Key Basic Research and Development Program, industrial technology research and development funds, and public welfare industry scientific research special projects managed by relevant ministries and commissions. It targets major social public welfare research related to national economy and people's livelihood, as well as major scientific and technological issues concerning industrial core competitiveness, overall independent innovation capability, and national security, aiming to break through technical bottlenecks in key areas of national economic and social development. The key special projects under the primary responsibility of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology focus on high-tech fields that foster future industries and emerging industries and accelerate the formation of new productive forces. They aim to deepen the integration of scientific and technological innovation with industrial innovation, increase high-quality scientific and technological supply, strengthen enterprises' dominant position in scientific and technological innovation, and promote the transformation and application of scientific and technological achievements. High-tech achievements in the fields of advanced manufacturing and new materials under the National Key R&D Program are important areas for cultivating and developing new productive forces, and also representative fields of in-depth integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. Selecting these fields for the pilot will help set an example for accelerating the industrial application of high-tech achievements under the National Key R&D Program and strengthen the supporting role of high-tech in industries. How will the pilot be promoted in a "classified" manner? In this pilot work, the pilot entities are divided into two categories: regions and units. This is conducive to building a transformation ecosystem of "regional coordination + multi-stakeholder participation" and forming a transformation closed loop of "policy guidance - resource docking - capital empowerment", laying a "highway" for high-tech achievements from the "laboratory" to "industrialization". Chengdu Hi-Tech Zone has built a "pilot test +" ecological system integrating "technology research and development + pilot test platform + professional incubation + angel fund + application scenarios". It has nearly 100 built and under-construction pilot test platforms, serving more than 3,000 pilot test projects cumulatively. Suzhou Industrial Park promotes the "two-way integration" of science, technology and industry through the construction of innovation consortia, with the output value of high-tech industries accounting for more than 70% of the total output value of industrial enterprises above designated size. Jiangnan Graphene Research Institute has built a carrier system of "research institute - maker space - incubator - industrial park", cultivating 4 national-level specialized, sophisticated, distinctive, and novel "little giant" enterprises and 2 potential unicorn enterprises... For promoting the industrialization of high-tech achievements, it is crucial for regions to set up a good "stage". Implementing regional pilots is conducive to stimulating the enthusiasm of relevant regional entities in promoting the industrialization of high-tech achievements, and providing "soil" for the landing of achievements through policy guidance, activity organization, and factor matching. The pilot regions this time include various entities responsible for the management of industrialization of high-tech achievements in their respective regions, such as municipal-level departments in charge of industry and information technology and science and technology, administrative committees of national high-tech zones and economic development zones, and national advanced manufacturing cluster development promotion organizations. The achievements of the National Key R&D Program project "Key Enzymes and Biotechnology for Leather and Their Application Demonstration" have been put into production on the yak hide processing line of Guofu Leather. The future industry science and technology service platform launched at the end of last year is committed to supporting the cultivation of future industry innovation. The first batch of national comprehensive insurance for technology research and development and pilot tests was officially launched in Foshan... Promoting the industrialization of high-tech achievements requires fully stimulating the vitality of various market entities. Classified selection of units for the pilot is conducive to promoting the formation of a joint force of multiple entities in the industrialization of high-tech achievements. The pilot units this time include industrialization implementation units, third-party service units, and financial service units. Industrialization implementation units such as enterprises and pilot test institutions promote the transformation of "technology into products"; third-party service units such as project management professional institutions and incubators act as "industrialization assistants" by optimizing services; financial service units such as banks and insurance companies serve as "capital activators" to provide financial support for project transformation. The comprehensive efforts of multiple entities will accelerate the industrialization process of high-tech achievements. What other effective measures are there to promote the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements? The industrialization of scientific and technological achievements is a bridge connecting production and scientific research, and a key measure to promote the integrated development of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. In recent years, to effectively promote the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and other relevant departments have continuously taken policy measures such as improving the top-level design of the science and technology service industry, improving the enterprise incubation system, cultivating an integrated technology market, and accelerating the promotion and application of achievements to help various outstanding scientific and technological achievements achieve tangible economic benefits. On May 19, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and eight other departments jointly issued the "Implementation Opinions on Accelerating the High-Quality Development of the Science and Technology Service Industry". It proposes comprehensive deployment around key areas such as research and development, technology transfer and transformation, and enterprise incubation. Through measures such as cultivating and expanding service entities, developing an integrated technology market, and optimizing the policy environment of the technology market, it aims to optimize the development ecology of the science and technology service industry, strive to accelerate the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements, and strongly support the integrated development of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation. Data shows that by the end of 2024, various incubators in China had incubated more than 300,000 technology-based enterprises and over 5,000 listed (listed) enterprises cumulatively. The continuous and in-depth advancement of the pilot work will lead a number of high-tech achievements in the fields of advanced manufacturing and new materials under the National Key R&D Program to move towards large-scale production and market-oriented operation, drive and lead the development of new productive forces in related fields, and provide experience for the industrialization of high-tech achievements.
