On August 30, CCTV’s Xinwen Lianbo reported the release of the China Regional Science and Technology Innovation Evaluation Report 2016-2017 and China Regional Innovation Capability Surveillance Report 2016-2017.
The
reports show that China scored 67.57 points in the overall science and
technology innovation index, which is 1.08 points higher than the number
from the previous year. The score of Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin,
Guangdong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the first tier is higher than the
national average (67.57 points). The score of Hubei, Chongqing, Shaanxi,
Shandong, Sichuan, Fujian, Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Anhui, Hunan,
Shanxi, Gansu, Jilin and Jiangxi in the second tier is between 50 points
and the national average (67.57 points). The score of other regions is
below 50 points.
The
research shows that since the 18th Party Congress, China’s regional
innovation capability has significantly increased, and the regional
innovation structure has been further optimized. The investment of
innovation resources and conversion of scientific and technological
achievements, which used to be dominated by the eastern region, are
shifting towards greater balance between the eastern, central and
western regions. The building of science and technology innovation hubs
in Beijing and Shanghai has achieved notable progress. Central and
western provinces like Hubei, Shaanxi and Sichuan are gaining strength
and rapidly emerging. The innovative development in the western region
also shows unique features and highlights. A network of science and
technology innovation with distinctive regional features has taken shape
in China.
