Since June, the Shanghai Regulations on Promoting the Transformation of Scientific and Technological Achievements (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations") have been officially implemented. The Regulations encourage institutions of higher education to establish technical service networks and collaborative innovation platforms for enterprises, support enterprises and institutions of higher education to jointly establish research and development platforms and transformation service agencies, and support the construction and development of various intermediary service agencies and research and development platforms, so as to jointly promote the solution to the problems of difficult docking, transformation and industrialization of enterprises' needs and technical achievements. Today, scientific research institutes and universities in the transformation of the results of "each show their prowess", of which, Mai Technology and the Shanghai Research Institute of Chemical Industry Co. The results of the innovative model are promising.

        Resource "bundling" to nurture corporate "babies"

In November 2016, the joint venture platform built by Mai Technology and the Chemical Engineering Institute - Shanghai Lian Tan Chemical Technology Co. was officially established, becoming the first large research institute in China to operate a technology transfer agency using market-based mechanisms. Over the past six months, the platform has served nearly 50 enterprises, of which 24 are contracted, and more than 10 are involved in the industrialization of operational technology projects on the ground.

As a state-level high-tech enterprise integrating multi-disciplinary chemical research and development and engineering application, Chemical Industry Institute is a well-known scientific research institute in the chemical industry, which is highly consistent with the concept of "adhering to the combination of scientific research and development and industrial services, supporting the development of new industries and the technological upgrading of traditional industries". As a project operator, the JV platform acquires horizontal projects, enjoys the power of resource integration and the right of profit distribution, and motivates the enthusiasm of researchers and helps chemical institute to gain value-added income through the operation of market-oriented means.

In the successful docking project, energy efficient heat exchanger project awakened 2 years of dormant technology; and through the May technology docking 3 intentional enterprises, after comparative competition, and finally industrialization landing. At present, the new technology has been successfully applied in the enterprise, heat transfer efficiency increased by 8-10 times.

Chen Hongkai, Director of the Innovation Service Division of the Municipal Science and Technology Commission, said: "This is a typical cooperation between a scientific research 'carrier' and a start-up enterprise providing intellectual services, and is also a successful case of the implementation of the Shanghai Action Plan to Promote the Transfer of Scientific and Technological Achievements. By making full use of the technical resources and R & D strength of the Chemical Engineering Institute, Mighty Science and Technology helps enterprises solve technical problems and realize the transformation and upgrading of enterprises. The Chemical Industry Institute is like a 'nursery', the partner companies are 'babies' and Mai Tech is a 'milk source'."

        A "partnership" that leverages the respective strengths of both parties.

Mai Technology since its formal establishment in 2015, through the online open platform docking offline enterprises to implement one-stop technical services integration model. Its business covers more than 40,000 enterprises in 103 cities, long-term commitment to service enterprise transformation and upgrading and the transfer of scientific research results, they are scattered around the world, such as "capillary" penetration into towns and villages, enterprises and other places closest to the demand.

As a highly Internet-based and market-oriented technology docking platform, Mighty Technology makes full use of its own advantages to seek technical needs to promote the Chemical Engineering Institute's project promotion and resource integration, realizes the positive interaction between the technology of the Chemical Engineering Institute and cooperative enterprises, and explores a new mode of technical achievement transfer. Through technology "bundling", we are deeply involved in the transformation project, providing the whole process of systematic services for both the demand and supply sides of technology, including technology and market research and evaluation, market application effect demonstration, traditional industry technology innovation services and so on.
　
Chen Baohua, vice president of Chemical Academy, said that after the "partnership", the two sides will make full use of the technical advantages of Chemical Academy and the market advantages of Mai-Tech to achieve a win-win situation for the three parties of technology, enterprise and platform. In the process of transformation of scientific and technological achievements, seven links are indispensable: "government, industry, academia, research and finance", and as "intermediary", it is very important for Mai-Tech to coordinate and unite the other six links.

According to the Shanghai Action Plan to Promote the Transfer of Scientific and Technological Achievements, Shanghai will further encourage the development of market-oriented and specialized service organizations, form a graded policy support path to guide entrepreneurship, cultivate pilot projects, and focus on demonstration; promote the policy tool of science and technology innovation vouchers to guide enterprises' demand for innovation, cultivate the science and technology service market, and protect the owners and demanders of scientific and technological achievements in the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. We will also establish a system for training talents for the transfer of scientific and technological achievements, an incentive mechanism, and explore a mechanism for gradual training and market-oriented selection of technology brokers.
