"Chinese automotive parts companies are predominantly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which often struggle to establish independent and comprehensive R&D teams. As a result, original innovation is limited, and these companies tend to rely more on collective innovation, primarily through the technology market to access information and technological resources," said Mr. Chen Bingyan, Director of the Parts Department at the China Automobile Industry Association, during an interview with a reporter.
At a time when the country and the entire equipment manufacturing industry are emphasizing independent innovation, many parts companies find it challenging to keep up. This situation raises concerns. While original innovation should not be ignored, for SMEs, collective innovation via the technology market might offer a more practical and effective path.
From a content perspective, the technology market represents a comprehensive exchange relationship. It encompasses the entire process from the development to the application of technical commodities, including technology development, transfer, consulting, and service-related transactions.
The technology market itself has been a major innovation in China’s socialist economic development. In 1985, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued the "Decision on the Reform of the Science and Technology System," explicitly stating that "the technology market should be opened and scientific and technological achievements commercialized." Over the past two decades, the technology market has become a bridge between technology and the economy, forming an essential part of the national innovation system.
According to survey results from 2005, in 595 projects across 13 provinces and cities, 466 had independent intellectual property rights, accounting for 78% of the total. The state allocated 959.99 million yuan, and after contract implementation, the new output value reached 13.6 billion yuan, with new profits of 1.9 billion yuan, taxes of 0.8 billion yuan, and exports of 1.2 billion yuan. The "value added" effect of the technology market is clearly visible.
"When discussing innovation in complete vehicles and parts, the role of the technology market is closely related," said Chen Bingyan. "Transforming technological achievements into industrialization is a difficult process."
In the auto parts industry, why do many SMEs remain in a state of technological and capital deficiency? This issue is partly linked to our scientific and technological institutional mechanisms. For a long time, China's science and technology innovation projects have been dominated by the science and technology system departments. Many SMEs have not entered this system, or simply don’t know where the "door" is.
Chen Bingyan expressed concern: "There are state funds and sufficient innovation funding in the science and technology sector. However, the current problem is that there aren't enough projects that meet the needs of users. How to use this funding effectively is even more critical."
He believes the government should establish a public technology platform that pools human and material resources to carry out systematic projects.
Regarding some existing issues, Chen pointed out that past technology market policies were more seller-oriented. Now, while protecting sellers' interests and encouraging innovators, more policy support and specific incentives should be given to buyers so that scientific and technological achievements can truly flow into industries.
One of the key roles of the technology market is to "make full use of global technology resources and become an important channel for international technology transfer." Although challenges such as multinational technology monopolies and technical barriers exist, Chen admitted that China has learned lessons in accessing foreign markets.
"If participants in certain projects can work together, progress in the automotive sector could be faster, and both resource allocation and management would save more money for the country."
As a market for production factors, China's technology market is playing an active role in the allocation of scientific and technological resources and has become a significant economic phenomenon.
Over the next 20 years, the country has clear goals for the reform and development of the technology market. By 2012, the contribution rate of technological progress and achievement transformation to national economic growth was expected to reach 35%, and by 2022, it aimed to reach 50% to 60%, finally reaching the level of medium-developed countries.
We understand that the industrialization of technology involves risks, but it is precisely this combination of risk and innovation that motivates explorers to move forward. The direction of the national science and technology innovation system is clear, and the technology market for automotive parts must have its own platform. The risks involved in technology industrialization should receive more policy support.
