13 million yuan! Do you want to continue?… 14 million yuan, do you want to add more?… 16 million yuan!… “The auctioneer’s repeated quotes pushed the atmosphere to the climax. On December 8th, the 2017 Zhejiang Autumn Science and Technology Achievement Auction (Auction), hosted by the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Science and Technology (Zhejiang Intellectual Property Office) and hosted by Zhejiang Science and Technology Market (Zhejiang Wuyi Technology Co., Ltd.), concluded its official battle in the Zhejiang Science and Technology Market.
More than 120 scientific and technological achievements participated in the bidding for this event, mainly involving fields such as electronic information technology, equipment manufacturing technology, new material technology, energy conservation and environmental protection technology, biopharmaceutical technology, agriculture, animal husbandry, fishing, and processing technology. In the end, 120 achievements were completed, with a total transaction price of 196 million yuan.
The technology of “Research and Development of Strains for biotransformation, a key intermediate of steroid drugs, and Research on Key Strains for biotransformation of sterols to Produce Progesterone Precursor Branched Chain Alcohols” transferred by Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, was vigorously auctioned on the market. The starting price was 8 million yuan, and the final price was 16 million yuan from Zhejiang Xianju Junye Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. This is also the technology achievement with the highest transaction amount in the 2017 Zhejiang Autumn Technology Achievement Bidding (Auction) series of activities. This achievement utilizes molecular biology and genetic engineering techniques to transform existing strains to obtain new strains with improved transformation efficiency and a significant decrease in non target products. By optimizing the culture medium, the physiological efficiency of the transformed strains is improved. We have confidence in the technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the market prospects for industrial development in the future are relatively broad. “The bidding representative of the enterprise said that this technology can not only improve traditional processes while developing new drugs, but also reduce costs. In the future, it will achieve the goal of industrialization on a scale of thousands of tons.
The “Elevated Soilless Cultivation Strawberry Technology” brought by High Chemical (Shanghai) International Trade Co., Ltd. uses a specialized substrate to replace soil, which not only allows plants to be planted on cement, barren, and saline alkali land without soil conditions, but also eliminates food safety risks caused by soil pollution, ensuring reliable quality. This technological achievement was initially priced at 2 million yuan and ultimately sold for 4 million yuan. We hope this technology can be rolled out nationwide, “said project leader Wang Chunhao. The reason for choosing to land in Zhejiang is because Jiande is the hometown of strawberries and the largest strawberry production area. Zhang Xianjun, the secretary of the board of directors of Zhejiang Yangtian Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd., who captured the technology, told reporters that low-cost applications and further research and development will be carried out on the basis of this technology.
The 16 agricultural technology achievements participated in the bidding by Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences have yielded fruitful results, with a total starting price of 17.41 million yuan and a final transaction price of 25.14 million yuan, with a premium rate of 44.4%. The relevant person in charge of Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences stated that the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements can be achieved through open bidding and auction, which can allocate various resources on a larger scale, connect the market with scientific and technological achievements and industries, and is conducive to the supporting role of technology in the transformation and development of modern agricultural industries.
It is reported that the 2017 Zhejiang Autumn Science and Technology Achievement Auction (Auction) series activities (hereinafter referred to as the Autumn Auction series activities) were successfully held from October 28th to December 8th in the Zhejiang Science and Technology Market and the provincial sub markets. The Autumn Auction series consists of 10 events, including technology achievement roadshows, college and university specialized auctions, local specialized auctions, industry specialized auctions, patent bidding meetings, enterprise technology demand bidding meetings, and provincial-level comprehensive auctions. The scale is the largest in history, and for the first time, it has achieved the combination of provincial-level comprehensive auctions with industry and local specialized auctions, The integration of supply oriented bidding auctions and demand oriented “talent recruitment”, the unique innovation of combining technological achievements roadshows with bidding auctions, has become a more innovative form, richer content, and further improved effectiveness, becoming the “autumn auction season” for enterprise “Taobao” technological achievements.
The autumn auction series of activities announced a total of 198 scientific and technological achievements, with a total starting price of 164 million yuan. More than 430 enterprises in the province participated in the auction, resulting in 188 transactions with a value of 236 million yuan, a premium rate of 44%. Among them, 120 provincial comprehensive special sessions were sold with a value of 196 million yuan, and 68 university, industry, and local special sessions were sold with a value of 40 million yuan. Among all the transaction projects, 89 are scientific and technological achievements of universities, 95 are enterprise scientific and technological achievements, and 3 are personal scientific and technological achievements, involving fields such as electronic information, energy conservation and environmental protection, big health, equipment manufacturing, new materials, agriculture, animal husbandry and fishing, industrial design, etc. Hangzhou Qichuang Robot Co., Ltd.’s “Multi process Integrated Automation for Precision Bearing Turning Production Line” technology started from 1 million yuan and was finally won by Changshan Kangle Bearing Co., Ltd. for 4.5 million yuan after more than 20 rounds of bidding. Many technological achievements were finally sold after multiple rounds of bidding.
In the autumn auction series activities, the Zhejiang Province “List Recruitment” and Enterprise Technology Demand Bidding Conference were once again held. Out of the 34 announced enterprise technology demands, 28 were sold, with a listing price of 58.048 million yuan and a transaction price of 46.649 million yuan, with a discount rate of 20%, saving the enterprise 11.399 million yuan in research and development expenses. The technology demand with the highest transaction amount is “efficient breeding technology for melons and vegetables such as Solanaceae, Cucurbitaceae, and Cruciferae”, proposed by Zhejiang Meizhiao Seed Industry Co., Ltd., which mainly solves the creation of germplasm resources, efficient breeding technology, and efficient genetically modified technology for Solanaceae, Cucurbitaceae, and Cruciferae vegetable crops. The listed price is 11 million yuan, and the final price is 10 million yuan, which was won by Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
It is understood that since the beginning of this year, the Zhejiang Science and Technology Market has held a total of 20 technology trading activities, with 360 bidding transactions of various technologies and a total amount of 520 million yuan, with the highest number and amount of transactions in history.
At the same time, the Zhejiang Science and Technology Market also provides tracking services for the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements. From 2012 to the autumn of 2016, 402 of the 920 scientific and technological achievements that have been auctioned and sold have successfully achieved industrialization. The company achieved sales revenue of 29.9253 billion yuan, profits of 1.97854 billion yuan, and contributed tax revenue of 1.44146 billion yuan.
