The core of innovation drive is technological innovation. Adhering to innovation-driven development, Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Dawan District must concentrate on promoting technological innovation and building an internationally competitive and innovative development zone.

The “Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Dawan District Development Plan” regards “Building an International Science and Technology Innovation Center” as an important task in promoting the construction of the Dawan District, emphasizing the need to deepen the implementation of the innovation-driven development strategy, deepening the innovation cooperation between Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and building an open and integrated development. The regional collaborative innovation community, gathering international innovation resources, optimizing the innovation system and policy environment, focusing on improving the ability to transform scientific and technological achievements, building a global strategic innovation highland and an important source of emerging industries, has given the important mission of Dawan District to lead the support of innovation drive.

Innovation is the first driving force for development. To implement the innovation-driven development strategy, we must firmly grasp the "bovine nose" of technological innovation. The planning outline proposes to build Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macau and Dawan District into a “global international innovation center with global influence”, which reflects the profound insight into the high-quality development momentum of the new era. It is based on the overall development of the country and the foundation, reality and future of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao. The scientific deployment made. The three regions have outstanding research and development and transformation capabilities, and have a number of universities, research institutes, high-tech enterprises and national science projects with important influences in the country and the world. The innovative elements are attractive and have good construction of international science and technology innovation centers. basis. At the same time, we must also see that a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation are poised for development. The three places need to be strengthened in promoting the efficient and convenient flow of production factors and improving the regional collaborative innovation system. It is necessary to focus on the strategic positioning of building a globally influential international science and technology innovation center, aiming at the forefront of world science and technology and industrial development, vigorously developing new technologies, new industries, new formats, new models, and accelerating the formation of innovation as the main leader and support. Economic system and development model.

Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao each have their own strengths in research, industry, talent and docking global resources. To build a globally influential international science and technology innovation center, we must focus on building an open regional collaborative innovation community. The planning outline will make concrete arrangements for strengthening cooperation in science and technology innovation, building basic capacity for innovation, and deep integration of production, education and research, emphasizing the need to promote the integration of Hong Kong and Macao into the national innovation system and play a more important role; and building a regional innovation system with openness and rationality; Promote the construction of the “Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong-Macau” science and technology innovation corridor; accelerate the construction of national independent innovation demonstration zones and national dual-creation demonstration bases and space creation; encourage Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao enterprises and scientific research institutions to participate in international scientific and technological innovation cooperation; support Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao participation National science and technology plans, deepening the reform of innovation system and mechanism, and establishing an alliance of industry, university and research innovation. To implement the planning outline, Guangdong must seize opportunities and positive actions, deepen cooperation, strengthen regional coordination, and jointly stimulate the vitality of various innovation entities.

High-level scientific and technological innovation carriers and platforms are important support for enhancing scientific and technological innovation capabilities. To build a globally influential international science and technology innovation center, we must accelerate the construction of major science and technology infrastructure, cross-research platforms and frontier disciplines in Dawan District, and strive to improve the level of basic research. The planning outline clearly promotes the construction of national independent innovation demonstration zones, promotes the integration of military and civilian development in the nine cities of the Pearl River Delta, supports the construction of major innovation carriers, research and development centers, and technology industry development platforms that combine the characteristics and realities of Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and promotes the national priorities of Hong Kong and Macao. Laboratory partner laboratory construction. Guangdong has two national independent innovation demonstration zones and has a deep cooperation foundation with Hong Kong and Macao. In recent years, Guangdong has introduced a series of policy initiatives and work arrangements around promoting the construction of “created zones” and strengthening basic research and applied basic research. It is necessary to join hands with Hong Kong and Macao to strengthen basic research and applied basic research and strengthen major technological infrastructure and Innovative platform construction to seize the commanding heights of technological innovation.

Implementing the innovation-driven development strategy is a systematic project. The most urgent is to accelerate the pace of technological system reform, optimize the regional innovation environment, remove the bottlenecks and constraints that affect the free flow of innovation elements, and further stimulate the vitality of various innovation entities. According to the plan outline, we must promote the comprehensive innovation reform experiment, deepen the reform of regional innovation system and mechanism, study and implement more convenient policies and measures, encourage exchanges between science and technology and academic talents, promote cooperation on major scientific research projects, and innovate mechanisms and improve the environment. The Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Dawan District will be built into an internationally competitive base for scientific and technological achievements, and will carry out in-depth cooperation in the areas of entrepreneurial incubation, technology finance, transformation of results, international technology transfer, and science and technology services, and will be advanced for Hong Kong and Macao universities and research institutions. The transfer of technological achievements will provide convenient conditions for cooperation in building a diversified, international and cross-regional technology innovation investment and financing system; it is necessary to strengthen the protection and application of intellectual property rights, and strengthen the Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macao and Dawan District in the fields of intellectual property protection and professional personnel training. Cooperation.

Innovation wins the future. All departments in all regions of the province must conscientiously implement the important concept of "innovation is the first impetus" put forward by General Secretary Xi Jinping, and profoundly understand the far-reaching strategic significance of building a "global international innovation center with global influence", and persist in innovation-driven and reform-led. The construction of the International Science and Technology Innovation Center and the construction of a strong province of science and technology innovation will be closely integrated to promote the optimization of the collaborative innovation environment in the three places, accelerate the gathering of innovative factors, and significantly enhance the ability of emerging technologies and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and become China‘s economic innovation and competitiveness. Continuous enhancement provides strong support.
