Technological Development of Automation Solutions for the Energy Industry

Abstract The Innovation Centers are one of the arms of a nation's technological development. Due to their characteristics and objectives, these centers are equipped with laboratories, equipment and researchers capable of developing a product from basic research to the installation of the solution in the field. Entering the context of Innovation Centers and knowing how to correctly position the level of technological maturity is one of the challenges to be understood and explored. In order to advance the market phase, it is recommended to form alliances with technology-based companies to provide both production and commercialization of these technologies, even more if it is possible to create a spinoff from these centers, to take advantage of the experience, knowledge and skills already acquired over time.

Preliminary study on the pathway of scientific and technological achievements of clinical hospitals transferred by medical device enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta / 中华医学科研管理杂志

Objective:To provide references for promoting clinical hospital technology transfer, through on-site investigations of medical device manufacturers and sorting out the situation of the participation of enterprises in technology transfer.Methods:Purposive sampling and questionnaire are used; the study analyzed the collected data by quantitative and qualitative research on the selected 5 enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta, and introduced the procedures of enterprises purchasing scientific payoffs.Results:It shows that the medical device enterprises have strong demand for the technology innovation, and the cooperation between enterprises and researchers at an earlier stage are conducive to technology transfer. At present, the overall technology readiness level for the hospitals is generally not high. The commercialization of scientific and research findings could achieve the win-win situation for both the hospitals and enterprises.Conclusions:To further promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements in China, We should establish a more diversified achievement promotion platform to push forward the hospital-enterprise cooperation to improve the technology readiness level, and meanwhile, accelerate the application-oriented clinical scientific research.
