On August 3, representatives of technology-based enterprises from enterprise incubators, industrial parks, and other platforms in Jing'an District gathered at the Science and Technology Innovation Hall of Skyline Tower, which is developing a maker space for the technology industry. They attended the interpretation session focused on "Shanghai Science and Technology Resources and Policies", co-organized by the Science and Technology Commission of Jing'an District and the Shanghai R&D Public Service Platform Management Center, where experts were invited to brief on current technological policies and science and technology innovation resources. This event marked the official launch of the Shanghai High-quality Incubator Cultivation and Development Series Activities, an initiative fully promoted by the Science and Technology Commission of Jing'an District.
According to an official from the Science and Technology Commission of Jing'an District, this event aims to enhance the familiarity of technology-based enterprises in the region with the policies introduced by governments at all levels, thereby enabling them to precisely access government support resources. This, in turn, assists technological incubators and innovation carriers in enhancing their "hard power" in incubation and expanding their "hard services", thereby accelerating the cultivation of high-quality high-tech enterprises.
During the event, two technical specialists from the Shanghai R&D Public Service Platform delivered detailed interpretations of the newly issued Shanghai science and technology innovation voucher policy and the Shanghai professional title policy for experimental technology and science and technology management. They also addressed inquiries from representatives of the participating enterprises.
The Shanghai science and technology innovation voucher, funded by municipal fiscal science and technology funds, serves as a policy tool to support small and medium-sized technology-based enterprises and science and technology innovation teams in purchasing professional services from service agencies. This initiative aims to reduce the costs of innovation and entrepreneurship for enterprises or teams, facilitate their connection with high-quality R&D resources in Shanghai, and enhance their innovation capabilities and R&D efficiency.
The Shanghai professional title policy for experimental technology and science and technology management stipulates the conditions required for professional and technical personnel in technology-based enterprises to be evaluated for different levels of professional titles, such as assistant, intermediate, and senior. This policy greatly benefits technology-based enterprises in improving their talent management systems and supporting the career advancement of science and technology personnel.
The meticulous briefings by the technical specialists provided the enterprise representatives with a comprehensive and clear understanding of the aforementioned science and technology policies. Many participants expressed their intention to actively utilize these policy resources to help their companies further improve development quality and efficiency.
At the event, the heads of Skyline Tower and the Bank of Ningbo Shanghai Branch introduced the innovation and entrepreneurship space tailored for technology-based enterprises and the technology finance services designed to benefit businesses.
