“In the past ten years, we have continued to strengthen the main position of enterprise innovation, comprehensively optimize the innovation layout, focus on stimulating the innovation vitality of talents, and vigorously create a good innovation and entrepreneurship ecology.” Wang Qin said that the innovative enterprise cluster in our province has presented a new situation, and the overall efficiency of regional innovation has improved. A new level has been reached, new achievements have been made in the construction of a high-level scientific and technological talent team, and new steps have been taken in the modernization of scientific and technological governance capabilities.
As of 2021, the total number of high-tech enterprises in the province will reach 37,000, ranking second in the country; the number of technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises will exceed 72,000, making it the first region in the country to exceed 70,000; The number of enterprises continues to be the first in the country; the national high-tech zone and the national innovative city are the first to achieve full coverage of districts and cities in the country; the first to establish intergovernmental industries with 10 countries or regions including Israel, Finland, Norway, Singapore, Austria and Slovakia Innovate the joint support mechanism for cooperation and realize the full coverage of cooperation between all “985” universities in China and our province. In 2021, the sales revenue of the cooperation project between our province and the Chinese Academy of Sciences will exceed 140 billion yuan, ranking first in the country for 15 consecutive years.
The level of industrial autonomy and controllability has achieved a new improvement
Focusing on the problem of “stuck neck” and breaking through the limitations of key core technologies is a “must answer” for realizing independent and controllable industries and high-quality development.
“We adhere to the ‘four aspects’, strengthen the full-chain deployment of innovative activities such as basic research, technological breakthroughs, achievement transformation and industrialization, and concentrate on key and core technologies.” Wang Qin introduced that our province is actively exploring major scientific and technological tasks. Organize the implementation mechanism, give play to the role of the “organizer” of major scientific and technological innovation of the government and the “issuer” of technological innovation of enterprises, and explore new models such as “setting the list of tasks”, “leading the list”, “entering the list” and “publishing the list of needs”.
Facing the frontier of science and technology, our province has supported 35 top scientists to lead the implementation of major basic research projects of cutting-edge leading technology. In the past 10 years, it has undertaken about 40,000 projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, won 439 general projects of the National Science and Technology Award, and resided in various provinces (autonomous regions). ) first.
Facing the main economic battlefield, our province has implemented a total of 1,197 major scientific and technological achievements transformation projects, directly driving new sales of 541.8 billion yuan and profits of 66.6 billion yuan. The innovation level of major products is at the forefront of the world.
Facing major needs, aiming at key areas such as integrated circuits, high-end equipment, and cutting-edge materials, it has implemented more than 1,000 industrial forward-looking and key core technology research and development projects, breaking through a number of key technical bottlenecks.
Facing people’s life and health, and giving play to the role of science and technology in supporting people’s livelihood, it has organized and implemented a total of 102 major social development science and technology demonstration projects, and deployed and constructed 20 provincial-level clinical medical research centers; focused on food security, strengthened research and development, and cultivated a total of 642 new varieties of major crops. , the contribution rate of agricultural science and technology progress exceeded 71%.
New breakthroughs have been made in the cultivation of strategic scientific and technological forces
Recently, in the first National Disruptive Technological Innovation Competition hosted by the Ministry of Science and Technology, 8 projects in our province stood out from 2,724 projects across the country and won the highest award of the competition – the Grand Final Award. Among them, there is the “Solid State Nanopore DNA Sequencer” project of the Materials Science Suzhou Laboratory. Compared with the existing DNA sequencing technology, this technology has important breakthroughs in various parameters and is expected to reshape the entire sequencing industry chain.
In the past ten years, our province has accelerated the deployment of major innovation platforms, and made new breakthroughs in the cultivation of strategic scientific and technological forces.
