Expertise, Refinement, Novelty, "Acceleration", And Continuous Release Of Innovation Vitality Of Small And Medium-Sized Enterprises

The transformation and upgrading of the "industrial chain" has been accelerated, the achievements of the "innovation chain" have been transformed significantly, the "capital chain" has gradually improved quality and efficiency, and the "fundamentals" have achieved steady growth... Recently, the latest data released by CCID Research Institute of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology shows that in April 2024, China's specialized, specialized and innovative innovation index will be 286.4, an increase of 25.2% over the same period last year. From the perspective of industrial distribution, the two major industries of new materials and biology have maintained strong innovation vitality, accelerated the formation of innovation achievements, and relevant SMEs continue to release strong vitality of scientific and technological innovation.

Since this year, the production and marketing situation of SMEs in China has continued to improve, and the development momentum of specialized and innovative SMEs is booming. The relevant person in charge of CCID Research Institute said that this data shows that China's specialized, special and new small and medium-sized enterprises have a strong burst of development vitality, and their role in attracting employment, improving people's livelihood, promoting common prosperity and other aspects has significantly improved while providing rich material products and services to the society.

From "manual workshop" to intelligent manufacturing factory, from "zero foundation" to helping big country intelligent manufacturing, in recent years, more and more specialized and special new enterprises are becoming an important support for "China intelligent manufacturing". In Leshan, Sichuan, a new high-tech textile factory is creating a "special coat" for space launch vehicles. This "shaped foam fabric packaging product for cargo loading" is independently developed and manufactured by local enterprises, which has the functions of powerful packaging, light weight and strong functionality. Driven by technological innovation, this high-tech product is constantly iterating and going into space.

In recent years, the new material industry has flourished, breakthroughs have been made in key materials, and cutting-edge technologies have emerged, creating a large number of specialized and new "small giant" enterprises. Walking into the production workshop of a new material technology enterprise in Chongqing, heating, extrusion, melting, mixing... metal parts are automatically transferred on automatic and intelligent production equipment, and all process images and data indicators of the production line are presented in real time on the intelligent electronic large screen in the central control room. According to the relevant person in charge, innovative R&D has improved the core competitiveness of the enterprise, allowing scientific and technological products to enter a more high-end market. Today, locally produced strontium aluminum alloys, metallic strontium and other products are widely used in electronics, metallurgy, aviation, automotive industry and other fields, and are exported to many countries and regions in Europe and the United States.

"Coinciding with the wave of digitalization, doing a good job in digital transformation is the potential for the development of specialized, special and new SMEs." Wei Qijia, director and researcher of the Industrial Economy Research Office of the Economic Forecast Department of the National Information Center, said that supporting the development of specialized, special and new SMEs is an inevitable requirement to accelerate the construction of a modern industrial system, It is also of great significance to promote the smooth operation of industry. It is necessary to amplify the "multiplier" effect of specialized and innovative enterprises, form more experience and practices that can be popularized, and create a resultant force to support the development of enterprises.

The protection of intellectual property rights is the key for SMEs to release innovation vitality. In recent years, the innovation ability and output level of intellectual property achievements of China's specialized and innovative SMEs have been constantly improved, and a series of measures have "escorted" scientific and technological innovation. Since 2022, the State Intellectual Property Office, together with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, issued the Several Measures for Intellectual Property to Assist the Innovation and Development of Specialized, Special and New SMEs, all regions have focused on the protection of intellectual property rights of SMEs to provide multiple guarantees for independent innovation of enterprises.

Jiangsu focused on promoting intellectual property financial innovation, successfully issued a number of national first products, reduced the complexity of product architecture, and solved the tax problem in the "secondary licensing" model of past products; Shanghai carried out the special action of high-quality development services, organized and implemented the "point-to-point" intellectual property diagnosis work, promoted the financing and development of large, small and medium-sized enterprises around the industrial chain, and implemented the "one network for all" of the city's enterprise services; Zhejiang carried out the pilot work of data intellectual property system reform, launched the first public data intellectual property depository platform in China, issued the first data intellectual property depository certificate in China, and landed the first data intellectual property pledge financing in China

"Innovation is the soul of specialized, special and new enterprises, and intellectual property is an important standard to measure the innovation ability and level of specialized, special and new enterprises." Li Xin, an analyst at the Intellectual Property Research Institute of CCID Research Institute, said that intellectual property rights such as patents, as the evaluation criteria for innovation ability, have become the conditions for the echelon identification of specialized, special and new enterprises. Strengthening intellectual property management and strict intellectual property protection will force enterprises to strengthen research and development, which is conducive to further gathering innovative elements, promoting the application of intellectual property, and assisting the innovative development of specialized and new enterprises.
