The National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Administrative Measures for the Management of National Emerging Industry Innovation Centers." The measures propose that industrial innovation centers are positioned as platforms for technological innovation, which are strategic forces for nurturing and developing future industries and new productive forces, and are important components of the national innovation system. Industrial innovation centers are generally led by industry-leading enterprises, and are formed by collaborating with industry upstream and downstream, as well as universities and research institutes to leverage innovative resources. They collaborate on industry key technologies, cutting-edge leading technologies, and systematic integrated technology research and development, incubate high-growth small and medium-sized enterprises in the industry chain, and create an industrial collaborative innovation ecosystem. Industrial innovation centers typically operate in the form of corporate legal entities, with diverse ownership structures, independent operations, self-sufficiency in profits and losses, clear governance structures, and flexible and effective operational mechanisms. Industrial innovation centers should widely attract local funds and social capital to participate in construction and investment, support higher education institutions and research institutes to invest in technology. Industrial innovation centers should establish a stable research and development investment mechanism to provide financial support for continuous technological innovation activities. Industrial innovation centers are encouraged to establish investment funds to provide financial support for innovation, entrepreneurship, and achievement transformation. Industrial innovation centers should expand their sources of operating funds through providing innovative services, taking on national and local projects, selling shares of incubated enterprises, injecting capital, accepting donations, and other means.
