Haidian district in Northwest Beijing has become one of the most vibrant high-tech centers for technology innovation, as well as a hub for international technology communication.
Statistics showed that in 2013, Haidian district had 21,372 patents, a rise of 7.6 percent year on year.
After China's international technology transfer center and national technology transfer accumulation center were set up in the western region of Zhongguancun, Haidian's technology exchange was tipped to become more high-end, professional and international, officials said.
To build Haidian into a "never-ending technology exchange exhibition center," the Haidian district established a service platform for Zhongguancun's technology transfer and intellectual property protection.
The platform is based on Zhongguancun Science Park's beneficial policies and R&D centers. It mainly serves technological enterprises in the Zhongguancun Science Park and spreads the services to the country's major industrial parks in different fields.
The platform focuses on the resource advantages of Zhongguancun Science Park and shares information from the China Technology Exchange.
It also includes related agency services and encourages enterprises to take part in market-oriented activities including technology transfer and intellectual property exchange.
The platform has four virtual halls featuring different functions.
The information hall releases supply and demand information in Beijing and other places in the country.
The exchange hall publicizes projects with rights that have been confirmed. It also offers a space for price bidding exchanges of patents and trademarks.
The service hall provides support services from research institutes and investing agencies.
The news hall releases notices for exhibitions, exchanges, latest news and policy orientations.
Officials said that market demands were very important for the platform, which would also provide convenient Internet access to help users find information quickly.
A highlight of the platform is an online exhibition that helps both sides of exchanges discuss and negotiate through the Internet.
The platform also enables users to apply for projects on-line to save time and money.
Haidian district also released several related policies to boost the development of intellectual property right protection and technology transfer.
The maximum awards for intellectual property right exchanges can reach 500,000 yuan ($81,976).
Maximum awards for commercializing patents can reach 1 million yuan.
Haidian district offers subsidies to enterprises that purchase high-end services for intellectual property rights, which can reach up to 500,000 yuan.
The district encourages industrial leagues and associations to initiate innovational activities.
This year, Haidian district cooperated with Zhongguancun administration committee, Beijing Intellectual Property Bureau and Beijing Quality Inspection Bureau to create beneficial policies to support enterprises, intellectual property related exchanges and transfer activities.
