China used to be considered an innovation absorber, simply copying ideas from elsewhere to roll out to local and foreign markets. Today, Chinese firms are recognised as innovators on the world stage. The most successful Chinese entrepreneurs have bolstered their innovative capabilities by collaborating with and acquiring international firms.

China’s president, Xi Jinping, wants to turn China into an innovation-driven economy by 2020. But can government-mandated innovation in a complex, partially closed economy save China’s growth prospects? Can China become an innovation powerhouse?

The Innovation Summit 2016 will bring together C-suite executives, entrepreneurs and critical thinkers from China and the surrounding region to discuss what lessons the world’s great innovators can offer China, and what ideas and insights it can share in return.

KEY TOPICS:• China’s innovation economy• Has Chinese innovation leapfrogged the rest?• China: Global innovation hub?• Measuring innovation: What’s in a ranking?• The clash of ideologies: Does government-led innovation work?• Can innovation save China’s economy?

8.30am Conference vision

Introduction from the chairman on the background, vision and objectives of the Innovation Summit.

Tom Standage, deputy editor, The Economist

9.00am Briefing: China’s innovation economy

China’s old economic workhorses are losing pace. These days, labour-force expansion and heavy capital investment lead to

overcapacity, debt and waning productivity.

China’s industrial sector barely grew in 2015, while the services sector saw stellar growth of 11.9%. The Chinese government

wants to recalibrate the economy away from export-oriented manufacturing and toward consumption and services. But

while a service-heavy economy may improve productivity inside China, will it shave even more from the global economy as

Chinese demand for commodities slows?

Despite all the gloom, can China maintain its crucial role as the engine room of the global economy?

How do economic trends affect creativity? Will a productivity push drive incremental innovation at the expense of big

breakthroughs?

Will China’s rocky capital markets make it harder to attract investors to budding start-ups?

Will the government’s new five-year plan set the right incentives for innovation, or will it hobble the country’s

innovation impetus?

Moderator

9.30am Keynote panel: Has Chinese innovation leapfrogged the rest?

From the “freemium” model of monetising video games to managed-scarcity marketing techniques, Chinese business model

innovations are also being adopted by Western firms. This is most visible in mobile commerce, where China leads the world.

Alipay’s transaction volume is more than double Amazon’s. Tencent’s novel way of monetising access to services in its

WeChat app has set a high bar for social-network competitors like Snapchat and Facebook Messenger. A uniquely Chinese

style of rapid prototyping and commodification, sometimes known as “Xiaomisation”, has accelerated the timeframe it takes

to innovate to scale.

At the same time, China’s top tech firms are setting up listening posts in Silicon Valley. Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent, Huawei and

DJI tap into talent and resources from California by locating research and development centres there to channel ideas back

home. Some of the Chinese venture capitalists surging to the West Coast are after notoriety, grabbing headlines by making

deals with tech superstars like Uber and Facebook. Some favour of a more collaborative approach where Chinese and

Western firms work together to create value in global markets. Others simply want to diversify their portfolios and prove their

investment mettle on the global stage.

Can Chinese firms cut it in mature overseas markets?

What are Chinese firms bringing home from abroad, and what are they leaving behind?

What can China’s global entrepreneurs teach others with overseas ambitions?

10.35am Networking break

11.05am China: Global innovation hub?

Western companies have changed the way they innovate in China. Rather than taking pre-made ideas to China to be

manufactured for mass markets, some of the world’s biggest names in innovation are looking to develop new ideas from

within the country. BP, AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson, GlaxoSmithKline and Medtronic are among the estimated one-third

of foreign companies that have set up R&D centres in China to create products for global markets.

How are Western companies learning from the way Chinese firms innovate?

Will foreign tech giants like Apple have to localise their e-commerce strategies to crack China’s competitive market?

How can overseas firms tap into the accelerated innovation that has become the norm in China?

Is China emerging as a true global hub for multinational innovation?

12.05pm Sizzle session: Shenzhen: The hardware innovation capital of the world?


With thousands of computer hardware manufacturers turning out prototypes faster and cheaper than elsewhere, Shenzhen

has become the leader in iterative hardware innovation. Hong Kong provides the talent and funds while Shenzhen builds the

ideas and pivots them toward mainland markets. Some of China’s biggest successes have emerged from the region, which is

now host to a new generation of start-ups and investors.

In a series of lively conversations, we’ll hear from some of Shenzhen’s home-grown innovation leaders about the ways this

dynamic cluster has contributed to their success.

12.35pm Networking lunch

1.45pm Measuring innovation: What’s in a ranking?

For every definition of innovation, there is a corresponding measure of its value and utility. Innovation prizes and rankings

abound. Companies, cities and even countries are ranked for their innovation prowess by a multitude of consultancies, NGOs

and media organisations, each with its own particular innovation pecking order.

What use are these economic beauty pageants? Are they simply opportunistic money-spinners or unimaginative public

relations campaigns? What does the fondness for running innovation league tables tell us about the arbiters of innovation

fashion?

In this session, we'll debunk innovation rankings and find out whether they are more than a corporate popularity contest.

2.05pm The clash of ideologies: Does government-led innovation work?

Chinese premier Li Keqiang speaks widely of his government’s plans to usher in reforms that will promote mass

entrepreneurship and innovation.

To date, government incentives to increase innovation have led to an explosion in patent applications and enormous

spending on science and technology. But critics argue that while China may have made significant leaps in economic

growth in recent decades, unnecessary barriers to innovation continue to stifle its miracle economy. Innovators would benefit

from more transparency in institutions, corporate governance and intellectual-property protections. China’s state-owned

enterprises (SOEs) have risk-averse management styles that hold back progress and creativity. And China’s “Great Firewall”

censors access to global websites, hampering innovation and efficiency.

Government-directed innovation laid the groundwork for Silicon Valley in the 1970s, yet in the West current tastes favour

open, collaborative and more democratic ways of innovating. Can a top-down, centrally planned approach to innovation

still be useful today?

How can central planners intervene to spur innovation-led growth without negative consequences?

Some wicked problems - social, environmental and blue sky - lack the market incentives to fund their solutions. Will

there always be a role for government in innovation?

As the tech sector grows in strategic importance for China, is it at risk of increased government intervention?

Have China’s online giants flourished in spite of the “China intranet”, or because of it?

3.05pm Networking break

3.35pm Panel discussion: China’s new breed of entrepreneurs

China has a new generation of entrepreneurs. More comfortable with the risky culture of start-ups than their parents, young

businesspeople are building momentum in an entrepreneurial scene that is at its most vibrant on the country’s east coast.

Venture capitalists pumped an estimated $15.5 billion into Chinese start-ups in 2015, and the expansive consumer market has

created a new herd of Chinese “unicorns”, private firms valued at more than $1 billion.

Chinese millennials have grown up in relative comfort, compared to the previous generation. Living in a strong, reforming

economy has given them the confidence to strike out on their own, take risks and try new ideas. Hungry to make their mark

on the world, they are starting businesses early in their lives.

But critics argue that China’s entrepreneurial class lacks diversity, which will hamper creativity and new ideas. The Chinese

education system, like many in Asia, emphasises rote learning at the expense of the critical and creative thinking skills that

breed innovation. Can China realistically place its aspirations for growth on the shoulders of this new set of entrepreneurial

hopefuls?

What should policymakers do to prepare today’s students to become the innovators of tomorrow?

How will doing business in China change in the coming decades?

How do China’s accelerators and incubators differ from those found elsewhere?

Who will be the next Jack Ma, Elon Musk or Narayana Murthy? Which Chinese entrepreneurs will be the world’s future

start-up superstars?

4.15pm The Economist debates: Will China innovate to save its economy?

China’s innovation performance is mixed, according to the McKinsey Global Institute. The country does well on consumer-

facing and efficiency-driven breakthroughs, but lags in science and technology. Invoking the mantra of innovation will not

bring it into existence. Is too much faith being placed in innovation as the great hope that will save China’s slowing

economy?

2016 创新峰会

中国的创新是否正在改变世界

2016 年 9 月 6 日•香港 JW 万豪酒店

在过去很长一段时间里，中国企业被认作创新的吸收方，它们单纯参照国外的想法大量炮制产品销往国内外，但是这一形象最近在发生转变。尽管

中国的奇迹经济日渐褪色，但是创新企业的崛起带来了新希望。阿里巴巴、腾讯和大疆创新等中国企业屹立于企业生态树顶端，它们是世界舞台上

公认的创新者，和苹果、谷歌、Uber 等世界科技巨头抢占新闻头条。

中国最成功的企业家以世界性的视角看问题。他们通过促使企业和国际公司合作或者收购这些公司来增强创新能力，他们还在硅谷等人才和创新聚

集地建立研发中心。西方企业也在中国进行研发，在利用中国的制造能力之余，它们还希望在中国进行创新然后把成果推向世界。一些西方企业甚

至开始采用中国的商业模式和创新方法从而推进自身的创新和商业化进程。中国的创新能力已毋庸置疑，现在问题变成外国企业能从中国的创新途

径中学到什么。

然而，评论家指出互联网审查制度和知识产权保护缺失等体制性障碍阻碍了创新的发展。同时，私营部门受到来自国有企业的竞争，这些国有企业

体系庞杂、发展缓慢，它们抢占了生产力更高的企业的资源。中国国家主席习近平计划到 2020 年使中国进入创新型国家行列。但是在这个复杂、

部分封闭的经济体里政府指导的创新能挽救中国的增长前景吗？

中国经济存在两面性：一方面，其根基尚浅的股市和国家引导的增长模式常常抢占头条，另一方面，其充满活力的企业家或将转变世界经济。2016

创新峰会汇聚来自中国及其周边地区的最高管理层、企业家和评论家，他们将共同探讨中国能从世界伟大创新人士身上获得的借鉴以及这些人士能

从中国获得的想法和见解。

9.00am 简报：中国的创新经济


中国的旧经济模式已跟不上时代的步伐。当前，劳动力扩张和庞大的资本投资额导致产能过剩、债务上升和生产力减弱。

2015 年，中国的工业部门仅实现微幅增长，而服务部门却猛增 11.9%。中国政府希望其经济实现从以出口主导的制造业为主向

消费和服务业转型。随着服务业占比增大，中国的内部生产力或将提升，然而在中国商品需求减少的背景下，新增的生产力能

从世界经济中攫取更大的需求份额吗？

在存在众多悲观因素的大环境下，中国能维持其作为全球经济引擎的重要角色吗？

经济趋势如何影响创造力？提高生产力的举措在推动渐增式创新的同时会妨碍重大突破的产生吗？

有意注资中国初创公司的投资者会因为中国资本市场不稳定而望而却步吗？

中国政府最新的五年规划将激励还是减损中国的创新动力？

9.30am 主旨讨论：中国的创新是否已经超越外国

从视频游戏货币化中的“免费增值”模式到控制性缺乏市场营销策略，西方公司也开始采用中国的创新商业模式，该趋势在移

动商务这一中国领先世界的领域表现最为明显。譬如：支付宝的交易量逾亚马逊的两倍、微信使服务货币化的新奇想法给

Snapchat 和 Facebook Messenger 等竞争对手设置了高门槛。中国特色的快速建模和商品化模型“小米化”缩短了创新规模

化的时长。

与此同时，百度、阿里巴巴、腾讯、华为和大疆创新等中国顶尖技术公司在硅谷设立“情报站”。它们通过这些研发中心获取

人才和资源，把创新想法传送回国。在涌向美国西海岸的中国风险资本家中，部分人热衷于追随名声，它们通过和 Uber 及

Facebook 等技术界巨星交易迅速抢占头条。部分人则偏重合作，它们偏好中国企业和西方企业合作的项目，这些项目通过合

作在全球市场中创造价值。还有部分人仅仅是为了使投资组合多样化，以及在世界舞台上展示投资魄力。

中国企业能在成熟的海外市场中获得一席之地吗？

中国企业从海外带回了什么？它们又给当地留下了什么？

有意进军海外市场的人士能从中国的全球企业家身上学到什么？

11.05am 中国：全球创新中心？

在过去，中国只是西方公司的“制造工厂”，为它们把预先制定好的想法转变为面向大众市场的商品，但是这一观念已经发生

转变。如今，一些世界级创新公司寻求在中国发展新想法。据估计，有 1/3 的外国公司在中国建立了研发中心，其中包括英国

石油公司、阿斯利康制药公司、强生公司、葛兰素史克制药公司和美敦力公司等，这些中心意在创造面向全球市场的产品。

西方企业能从中国企业的创新方式中学到什么？

面对中国市场的强烈竞争，苹果和 Uber 等外国技术巨头会被迫本地化其电子商务策略吗？

加速创新已成为中国的常态，海外企业要如何挖掘其中的利益？

中国正立足成为真正的多国创新中心吗？

1.45pm 衡量创新：排行榜代表什么？

任何一项创新定义都有其独特的价值和效用衡量标准，创新奖项和排行榜不胜枚举。咨询公司、民间组织和媒体机构热衷于对

公司、城市甚至是国家的创新能力进行排名，结果各具特色。

这些经济选美有什么作用？它们只是机会主义赚钱工具或者乏味的公共关系运动吗？创新权威人士对创新排行榜的热爱反映了

他们怎样的心理？

在此座谈会中，我们将对排行榜进行解密，探讨它们除了企业人气竞争之外的其它身份。

2.05pm 意识形态碰撞：政府领导的创新行得通吗？

在谈及中国政府为推进大众企业家精神和创新而开展的改革时，国家总理李克强表示该计划涵盖广泛。

当前，得益于政府推动创新的激励制度，中国的专利申请量和科技开支暴增。但是批评人士指出，尽管中国经济在过去几十年里

实现跳跃式增长，但是该奇迹经济持续受到不必要的创新障碍的遏制。若机构、企业管理和知识产权保护透明度得到提升，那么

创新人士将获得更大利益。中国国有企业（SOEs）规避风险的管理风格抑制了进步和创造性，中国控制网民浏览外国网站的

“防火墙”审查制度束缚了创新和效率。

上世纪 70 年代，政府指导的创新为硅谷打下基础，但是西方国家如今偏向开放、合作和更加民主的创新模式。从上至下、由中

央规划的创新模式放在今天还行得通吗？

中央计划者该怎样在规避消极后果的前提下推进创新领导的增长？

解决社会、环境和空气质量等棘手问题的激励制度缺失导致市场注资动力不足。这意味着政府将持续在创新方面发挥作

用吗？

随着技术部门的战略意义提升，中国政府的干预力度会相应增强吗？

“中国内联网”束缚还是推动了中国网络巨头的发展？

3.35pm 小组讨论：中国新一代的企业家

当前，新一代企业家在中国涌现。这些年轻的商人比其父辈更乐于接受初创企业的风险，他们在中国东部沿岸发光发热，为蓬勃

发展的企业家精神积攒动力。2015 年，中国初创企业接收的风险投资资金达 155 亿美元。昂贵的消费者市场同时新创了一群中

国“独角兽”，这些私营企业的估值逾 10 亿美元。

相比起他们的父辈，在世纪之交成长的中国年轻人享受相对优越的环境。得益于改革开放创造的强劲经济，这些年轻人有胆识闯

一番事业、承担风险和尝试新想法。他们早早创立自己的公司，迫切希望做出成绩。

但是批评人士指责中国的企业家阶级缺乏多样性，认为这将限制创造力和新想法。和许多亚洲国家一样，中国的教育体系偏重死

记硬背式的学习，扼杀了培育创新的批判性和创新思维技巧。中国能把发展的重任放在新一代企业家肩上吗？这是否符合实际？

为把今天的学生培养成明天的创新者，政策制定者应该怎么做？


在未来几十年里，中国的经商模式将发生怎样的转变？

中国的发展加速器和孵化器和其它国家的有什么区别？

谁将成为下一个马云、伊隆·马斯克或者纳拉亚纳·穆尔蒂？哪些中国企业家将成为未来的世界级初创巨星？
