I. China’s Innovation System and Its DevelopmentI. China’s Innovation System and Its Development
Main Goals By 2020, China will be one of the innovation-oriented countries
R&D investment is 2.5% of GDP
Contribution rate of science & technology progress to economic growth will exceed 60% (900 billion RMB)
Dependency ratio for foreign technologies will decrease to below 30%
Annual number of granted domestic invention patents and SCI papers will rank among world top 5

I. China’s Innovation System and Its DevelopmentI. China’s Innovation System and Its Development
Building independent innovative capacity includes three aspects
Capacity to make original innovation in the domain of basic research such as scientific discovery, and technological inventions
Capacity to integrate existing technology, emerging technology and inventions in order to create new products or business lines with market competitiveness
Capacity to absorb, digest and improve imported technologies, and to re-create IPR based on these technologies
7
Main priorities of science and technology innovation
R&D in fields of energy, water resources and environment protection
Improvement of people’s living and health standards is a major mission of science and technology innovation
Development and exploitation of the pre-competitive “common” technologies in order to upgrade industrial structure and provide technological support to SMEs
Reinforcing development and research of basic and pioneering technologies for sustainable development

III. Enhance Int’l Cooperation, Promote Innovation III. Enhance Int’l Cooperation, Promote Innovation and Technology Transferand Technology Transfer
ConclusionConclusion
Routine business for technology transfer for developing countries not sufficient, and new methods needed
More technical assistance needed for developing countries, esp.LDCs
China will continue to reinforce cooperation with WIPO members in IP, innovation and technology transfer
China will continue to work closely with WIPO in above areas
