Innovate Foshan and achieve better results. Recently, the Guangdong Provincial Conference on scientific and technological innovation was held in Guangzhou and the 2021 Guangdong Provincial Science and technology award was awarded. As the leading unit, Foshan enterprises and institutions won 13 award-winning projects, including 3 first prizes and 10 second prizes of scientific and technological progress awards. The number and quality of awards were the best in history. In addition, Foshan units participated in 12 award-winning projects, a total of 25. Last year, the 13th Party Congress of Foshan put forward the "515" strategic goal of "firmly implementing the new development concept, shaping the new form of development of Foshan, and striving to be the leader of high-quality development of prefecture level cities", including "being the leader of the reform of scientific and technological system and mechanism". This year's work report of Foshan municipal government also proposed to strengthen the guidance of scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the construction of high-level innovative cities and stimulate endogenous growth momentum. Deepening reform and marching towards the "515" strategic goal, Foshan's high-quality development is showing a new pattern and appearance. 13 awards for projects led by enterprises and institutions The quantity and quality of awards are the best in history The author learned from Foshan Science and Technology Bureau that in the 2021 Guangdong science and technology award, there were 13 awards won by Foshan enterprises and institutions as the leading unit, four more than the previous year. Foshan units participated in 12 projects, which was also improved compared with previous years. Looking at Foshan from the perspective of the whole province, Foshan's achievements are more worthy of recognition. A total of 180 projects (people) won the Guangdong science and Technology Award in 2021, which was the same as that of the previous year, but there was "one rise and one fall" in the award process. Among them, "one liter" is a significant increase in the number of nominations. In 2021, the Provincial Department of science and technology received 1031 nominations (people), a year-on-year increase of 30.7%; "One drop" means that the overall award-winning rate is 18.9%, which is significantly lower than 25.1% in 2020. In this context, Foshan's award-winning achievements set a new record, which highlights the improvement of the overall strength of Foshan's scientific and technological innovation. At the same time, combing the award-winning projects in Foshan, it can be found that the award-winning projects are mostly concentrated in emerging industries such as life and health, new materials and so on. Among the 13 projects that won the provincial science and technology award, there are 5 projects in the field of life and health, accounting for nearly 40%, and 7 projects in the field of new materials, accounting for more than 50%. Driven by the traction of Foshan Science and Technology Department, the technological innovation ability of Foshan enterprises is increasing day by day, and the collaborative innovation system with enterprises as the main body, market-oriented and deep integration of industry, University and research is accelerating its formation. In the past three years, 27 of the 34 awards in Foshan were led by enterprises, accounting for more than 80%. Enterprises also participate in the projects led by colleges and universities. According to the relevant person in charge of Foshan Science and Technology Bureau, the leading units of the three first prizes of scientific and technological progress awards won by Foshan are Zhengdian biology, Haitian flavor industry and Yifang pharmaceutical, which are excellent representatives of local high-tech enterprises in Foshan. The "innovation and application of chicken coccidiosis multivalent live vaccine and industrialization key technologies" project led by Sanshui enterprise Canon biology is one of the projects that won the first prize of the scientific and technological progress award in Foshan. The multivalent live attenuated vaccine of chicken coccidiosis developed by the project can completely replace the anti coccidiosis drugs, and improve the automatic and intelligent production level of chicken coccidiosis vaccine through independent innovation at multiple key nodes of the process flow. The "establishment of national standard system and innovative application of key technologies for traditional Chinese medicine formula granules" project led by Guangdong Yifang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. also won the first prize of Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award in 2021. The project solved the industry problem of traditional Chinese medicine formula granules without national standards, ensured the safety and effectiveness of clinical medication, and accelerated the standardization, modernization and internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine formula granules industry. Deepen the reform of scientific and technological system and mechanism Form a good atmosphere of independent innovation and advocating innovation In the past three years, Foshan enterprises and institutions have won the science and technology award of Guangdong Province, ranking the third in the province. The bumper harvest of the provincial science and technology award is closely related to a series of efforts made by the Foshan Science and technology department in the fields of tackling key problems in core technology and cultivating enterprise innovation subjects. In recent years, Foshan has insisted on strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation, continuously improving the independent innovation ability of enterprises, and the cultivation and development momentum of innovative enterprises is good. In 2021, there were 7100 national high-tech enterprises in Foshan, with a net increase of 1382, an increase of 24.2% over the previous year; The city has 30 provincial key laboratories, 812 provincial engineering technology research centers, 115 science and technology business incubators, 86 maker spaces and more than 3200 incubating enterprises. Foshan manufacturing enterprises take the lead and join hands with universities, institutes and other scientific research institutions all over the country to jointly focus on "neck sticking" technology, which has become a "daily phenomenon" of scientific and technological research and development in Foshan. In the list of the main completion units of the award-winning projects of the provincial science and Technology Award in 2021, there are colleges and universities in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Foshan and even Macao. The awards in Foshan are innovative scientific and technological achievements that have made great contributions to promoting the scientific and technological progress of the industry, improving people's livelihood and ensuring national security. They are the core technologies in the manufacturing field. Since 2021, Foshan has vigorously promoted the "leading" scientific and technological breakthrough, planned high-quality scientific and technological breakthrough projects in the industrial field, formulated and issued a new round of action plan for high-tech enterprises, strengthened the cultivation of scientific and technological small and medium-sized enterprises in emerging industries, and improved their independent innovation ability. At the same time, Foshan has accelerated the implementation of supporting funding for award-winning projects of national and provincial science and technology awards. At present, the financial department of Foshan City has provided a maximum subsidy of 5 million yuan and 3 million yuan respectively to enterprises and institutions in Foshan city that have won the national and provincial science and technology awards as the first completion unit. By increasing incentives, Foshan is forming a good atmosphere for enterprises, institutions and scientific and technological personnel to innovate independently, actively and advocate innovation. Foshan also vigorously promoted the improvement of the income distribution system of scientific and technological achievements, and supported universities, scientific research institutions, enterprises and other units to reward more than 70% of the net income from the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements to the achievement completers or R & D teams. In Jihua laboratory, researchers can be rewarded with up to 90% of the net income from the transformation of achievements. Midea Group, Haitian flavor industry, weishang furniture and other enterprises set up scientific research and innovation bonuses to stimulate innovation vitality and promote the industrialization of R & D achievements. These practices are specific measures for Foshan to deepen the reform of science and technology system and mechanism. Foshan Science and technology bureau takes breaking the deep-seated system and mechanism obstacles and making up for the shortcomings of the science and technology system as the starting point. Focusing on the optimization of innovation environment, the agglomeration of innovation resources, the improvement of enterprise innovation ability and the cultivation of strategic emerging industries, it has identified the breakthrough of science and technology system reform and is forming a fierce offensive. We will thoroughly implement the strategy of strengthening the city through science and technology Promote scientific and technological innovation in Foshan to a new level Scientific and technological innovation is a long-term achievement. Last year, the Foshan municipal Party committee proposed to build a first-class business environment as the No. 1 reform project. For all kinds of technology enterprises, a first-class business environment is also very important. In this context, Foshan Science and Technology Bureau has solidly carried out the activity of "going to the grass-roots level, going to the grass-roots level, doing practical things and solving difficult problems", so as to further promote the continuous development of the city's scientific and technological ecological environment. Through the service modes of "policy interpretation + system design + special training", the department actively coordinates and solves the difficulties and problems encountered by science and technology enterprises in R & D, talents, funds, venues and markets. In 2021, Foshan Science and Technology Bureau carried out the activity of "sending policies, technology and services" to enterprises at the grass-roots level, visited more than 620 enterprises and scientific research platforms, held more than 110 policy lectures and special training, and more than 3000 enterprise participants helped solve more than 100 problems. In addition, last year, Foshan took the lead in launching the pre technology appraisal service of R & D projects with additional deduction in the province. A total of 4870 enterprises in the city enjoyed preferential treatment, with an additional deduction of 12.928 billion yuan and a tax deduction of more than 1 billion yuan for enterprises; The reform of "second reporting, second approval and second payment" was carried out. 3294 enterprises enjoyed 241 million yuan of high-tech R & D subsidies, and 2259 enterprises enjoyed 225 million yuan of high-tech recognition subsidies. These practices in the field of business environment have formed a set of effective "combination boxing" and achieved good results. Last year, Jihua laboratory won the excellent grade in the examination and evaluation of the first batch of provincial laboratories, developed the "foshan-1" satellite and launched smoothly; Xianhu laboratory has achieved initial results in the cooperation between industry, University and research in the field of hydrogen energy. The South China hydrogen energy industry base with a total investment of 10 billion yuan by the state power investment and hydrogen energy company of in-depth cooperation has been settled in the South China Sea. Xue Liwei, director of Foshan Science and Technology Bureau, said that Foshan Science and Technology Bureau will start with gathering resources, building platforms and creating atmosphere, improve Foshan's innovation ecology and strive to promote Foshan's scientific and technological innovation to a new level. Looking to the future, Foshan has great potential for scientific and technological innovation. Not long ago, Foshan issued the "plan for the 'six major upgrading actions' of Foshan Industry", and scientific and technological innovation has become a main line running through the six major upgrading actions. According to the plan, next, Foshan will adhere to the enterprise oriented and market-oriented development path, strengthen strategic scientific and technological forces, aim at the forefront of industrial development, deeply implement the strategy of strengthening the city through science and technology and innovation driven development strategy, and accelerate the realization of scientific and technological self-reliance and self-improvement.
