Hangzhou, People's Daily, June 24 (Zhang Liwei) This afternoon, the press conference of the 14th Five Year Plan for Scientific and Technological Innovation and Development of Zhejiang Province (hereinafter referred to as the Plan) was held in Hangzhou. The Plan clearly states that by 2025, we will basically build an international first-class "Internet+" science and technology innovation highland, initially build an international first-class life health and new material science and technology innovation highland, and initially build a high-level innovative province and a strong science and technology province.

According to statistics, since the "13th Five Year Plan", Zhejiang's regional innovation capability has ranked the fifth in China, the third in provinces and regions, and the technological innovation capability of enterprises has ranked the third in China. The proportion of R&D expenditure in GDP of the whole society has increased from 2.32% in 2015 to 2.8% in 2020, the contribution rate of scientific and technological progress has increased from 57% to 65%, and the added value of high-tech industries has increased from 37.5% to 59.6% of industries above the designated size, realizing the strategic goal of "becoming an innovative province by 2020 and basically becoming a strong province in science and technology".

"In the next five years, more than at any time in history, Zhejiang needs to put scientific and technological innovation at the core of the overall development situation, and more needs to implement the innovation driven development strategy with an international perspective and extraordinary efforts." Gao Yingzhong, director of the Department of Science and Technology of Zhejiang Province, said that Zhejiang will highlight systematic, forward-looking and scientific planning concepts, and do a good job in the "14th Five Year Plan" On the basis of the preparation of the overall plan, 9 sub plans, including the medium and long-term strategic plan for scientific and technological innovation, the development of high-tech industries, and 10 special plans for technology, including the development of new generation information technology, were prepared simultaneously, forming a "2+9+10" scientific and technological innovation planning system.

The 14th Five Year Plan for the Scientific and Technological Innovation and Development of Zhejiang Province clearly defines the development goal as the "two-step" strategy for building a strong province through science and technology. Step 1: By 2025, basically build an international first-class "Internet+" sci-tech innovation highland, initially build an international first-class sci-tech innovation highland for life health and new materials, initially build a high-level innovative province and a strong province in science and technology, and propose 17 major development indicators from the dimensions of innovation investment, enterprise innovation, industrial development, innovation performance, etc, We will strive to achieve "six times more and six increases" in the proportion of R&D expenditure in GDP and other important indicators. Step 2: By 2035, build three science and technology innovation highlands in an all-round way, build a high-level innovative province and a strong province in science and technology, establish distinctive advantages in the world's innovation landscape, lay a solid foundation for high-level socialist modernization, and provide strong impetus for basically achieving the goal of common prosperity with Chinese characteristics.

During the Q&A session, Wu Qing, a member of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy Director of the Department of Science and Technology of Zhejiang Province, said that during the "14th Five Year Plan" period, Zhejiang will accelerate the construction of a new laboratory system, speed up the improvement of the technology innovation center system, speed up the construction of high-level colleges and universities, vigorously introduce and cultivate high-level new research and development institutions, and speed up the improvement of the layout of major scientific research facilities, Accelerate the cultivation of national strategic scientific and technological forces.

Sun Xudong, Deputy Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy Director of the Science and Technology Department of Zhejiang Province, pointed out that the autonomy and controllability of key core technologies related to the overall development of the country. During the "14th Five Year Plan" period, Zhejiang will spare no effort to fight the key core technologies, mainly focusing on three areas: project, mechanism reform, integration of industrial chain and innovation chain, so as to achieve self-reliance and self-improvement in science and technology for the country Show Zhejiang's contribution as a responsible person.
