In recent years, Jiaxing has been exploring the path of innovative development, walked out of a road of regional innovation, and striving to build a model of common prosperity supported by science and technology.
Recently, the Ministry of Science and Technology and China institute of science and technology information released the national innovative city innovation ability evaluation report 2022 the national innovative city innovation ability monitoring report 2022, Jiaxing in the national innovative city innovation ability index ranked 22nd, in the national urban innovation ability list 26th.
The innovation ability of the national innovation-oriented city is evaluated from five dimensions: innovation governance force, innovation driving force, original innovation force, technological innovation force and achievement transformation force.
According to the different main innovation functions, the national innovation-oriented cities are divided into three categories: innovation source, innovation growth pole and innovation application area.
Jiaxing belongs to the city of innovation growth pole category, ranking the 13th among 46 cities in this category.
The report points out that Jiaxing attaches great importance to scientific and technological innovation, and the proportion of financial expenditure on science and technology accounts (4.78% is 1% of the national average level.7 times, ranked 17th nationwide and 3rd in the province; Technological innovation is active, and the investment intensity of R&D funds in the whole society is (3).31% is 1% of the national average level.Four times, ranked 11th nationwide and 2nd in the province.
1、 High quality cultivation of technology enterprises, consolidating the “basic foundation”
One is to layout research and development institutions. By establishing a “one-on-one” service mechanism, we will promote full coverage of research and development institutions for the top 100 industrial enterprises in the city. Comprehensively build an enterprise innovation system composed of technology innovation centers, enterprise research institutes, enterprise R&D centers, etc., continuously improve the R&D activity rate and coverage of R&D institutions in large-scale industrial enterprises. A total of 11 provincial-level new research and development institutions, 7 provincial-level key laboratories, and 22 provincial-level key enterprise research institutes have been recognized in the city. Research and development institution setting rate 61.58%, higher than the provincial average of 24.By 16 percentage points, the number and proportion of research and development institutions ranked first in the province.
The second is to collect research and development data. Focusing on the precise implementation of the R&D expense deduction policy, we have launched the “Enterprise R&D Project Information Management System” in the province to address the difficulties in collecting R&D expenses, accounting for R&D expense deductions, and monitoring the entire R&D activity cycle in the enterprise R&D process. Guided by enterprise needs, upgrade the enterprise research and development project information management system, and create an application scenario of “Zhejiang Plus Deduction”.
The third is to improve the cultivation system. Establish a city county collaborative promotion mechanism around the three major science and technology innovation highlands and key industries such as artificial intelligence, aerospace, and semiconductors, and build a technology enterprise growth system of “provincial technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises – high-tech enterprises – technology small giant enterprises – innovative leading enterprises”. There are a total of 3698 high-tech enterprises and 8756 technology-based small and medium-sized enterprises in the city. In 2022, the city’s industrial enterprises above designated size achieved the added value of high-tech industries in 1985.600 million yuan.
2、 High standard construction innovation platform, igniting a “new engine”
One is to do a good job in guiding. Deepen the implementation of the strategy of jointly building innovative carriers among prestigious universities and colleges, deepen cooperation between universities and regions (Jiaxing Research Institute of Zhejiang University, Yangtze River Delta Research Institute of Beijing Institute of Technology, Jiaxing Research Institute of Southern University of Science and Technology), institute region cooperation (Nanhu Road and Air Collaborative Stereoscopic Transportation Industry Research Institute, Dean’s Triangle (Jiaxing) Branch of China Standardization Research Institute), enterprise region cooperation (Nanhu Research Institute of China Electronics Technology), and J region cooperation (Nanhu Laboratory).
The second is to strengthen “construction”. Build a demonstration research platform around the construction of “smart manufacturing, innovation, and strong city”. Support research institutes such as Zhejiang Tsinghua Yangtze River Delta Research Institute and Tongkun New Materials Research Institute to grow and strengthen. Deeply implement the “Deep Rooted Plan” and build a “1+N” science and technology innovation service system. At present, six major scientific and technological innovation platforms have been established, including Wuzhen Laboratory and Xiangfu Laboratory. Since the implementation of the “Deep Rooted Plan”, a total of 45 people have been selected for the national and provincial “Talent Introduction Plan”, attracting more than 110 projects of various types.
The third is to improve the quality. We will carry out regular docking between institutions, enterprises, banks, and enterprises. In 2022, we will hold 3 activities, attracting 5 research institutes, 205 enterprises, and 20 financial institutions. We will release 27 scientific research achievements and 20 enterprise technology requirements, and facilitate the signing of 11 industry university research cooperation projects. Release the innovation resource map of our city’s new research and development institutions and the innovation resource map of the new energy vehicle industry.
3、 Optimize the innovation environment with high requirements and play a good combination of punches
One is to promote the sharing of scientific research instruments. Taking the exchange of innovation vouchers as the starting point, we are the first in the province to achieve mutual recognition and exchange of innovation vouchers with Shanghai. We will include 1710 universities, institutions, third-party laboratories, and other large-scale scientific research instruments with a total value of over 10 billion yuan, as well as over 80000 testing and inspection services, in the scope of innovation voucher support. We encourage enterprises to share scientific research instruments and purchase technology services across regions, and achieve two-way circulation and effective interaction of innovation resources. In 2022, our city issued a total of 149.4 million yuan of innovation vouchers, with a confirmed usage of 94.59 million yuan, ranking first in the province in terms of confirmed usage amount. We also added 8283 units of shared open facilities and instruments, ranking third in the province, effectively reducing the burden on enterprise technological innovation. The innovative coupon universal redemption case in Jiashan County has been shortlisted for the first batch of “best practices” in promoting the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta in Zhejiang Province, and has been promoted and reported in the People’s Daily..It has been included in the digital reform pilot by the Provincial Department of Science and Technology. In 2022, the city held a total of 179 roadshows and over 500 science and technology innovation projects.
The third is to promote the recognition of high-end talents. Promote mutual recognition of foreign high-end talents and professional talents within the integrated development demonstration zone of the Yangtze River Delta (Jiashan, Qingpu, Wujiang). Implement “one place recognition, three places mutual recognition” and participate in the formulation of the “Implementation Plan for Mutual Recognition of Work Permits for Foreign High end Talents in the Yangtze River Delta Ecological Green Integration Development Demonstration Zone”. For the first time in the province, a “single window” has been implemented to cover all categories of foreign work in China, reducing the number of events that originally required at least two visits to only one visit, and reducing the time limit for approval of two departments in series from the original 30 working days to 5 working days.
