  Nowadays, it is almost the end of the year. Qi Tian, ​​the deputy director of the Chongqing Science and Technology Innovation Center of Northwestern Polytechnical University, is getting more busy. The scientific research building of the center is nearly completed after nearly a year of construction.

In the past few days, he is discussing the interior decoration, the admission of scientific research equipment, and the renovation of facilities with relevant construction units.

He hoped that the scientific research team of the school could settle in as soon as possible.

  Northwestern Polytechnical University has 7 remote innovation institutions across the country, and the Chongqing Science and Technology Innovation Center is the only one located in an inland city.

Qi Tian said that the establishment of the science and technology center is mainly due to the attraction of Chongqing Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone.

30 scientific research institutes have settled down

  Chongqing Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone is the first area of ​​China's inland development and opening up-the scientific and technological innovation platform of Chongqing Liangjiang New District. It is located in the Longsheng area of ​​the central city of Chongqing's main urban area, with a planned area of ​​30 square kilometers.

At the beginning of its establishment, it aimed at the frontiers of science and technology in the world and the commanding heights of the industry, focusing on introducing first-class universities and research institutes at home and abroad, establishing new high-end R&D institutions, and forming a coordinated integration of "research and industry, industry and innovation, innovation and talent training" Leading the industry-university-research innovation system of key common technologies, cutting-edge technologies, and applied technologies, synergistically promote original innovation, technological innovation and industrial innovation, and fully gather global innovation resources.

  The Chongqing Science and Technology Innovation Center of Northwestern Polytechnical University is one of many scientific research institutes located in Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone.

Qi Tian told reporters that the center is looking at the development opportunities of the aerospace industry in Liangjiang New Area, focusing on the aerospace and navigation field, deploying scientific research and industries in the directions of intelligent manufacturing and high-end materials, and developing high-end talent training in Chongqing.

  Although it was formally established for less than two years, the Chongqing Science and Innovation Center of Northwestern Polytechnical University has made rapid progress in technological innovation and industrial development.

The center has been approved for 14 projects approved by the Chongqing Natural Science Foundation in 2020, and it has also been approved as a Chongqing Postdoctoral Research Station.

In May 2020, the center was registered in Chongqing Lianghang Metal Materials Co., Ltd., the first industrialized company to land in Liangjiang New District.

  Zhao Ruifeng, chairman of Chongqing Lianghang Metal Materials Co., Ltd., told reporters that the company focuses on breaking through the technological bottlenecks that restrict the manufacturing of key components for high-end equipment, research and development, production and processing of metal products, mechanical parts, aircraft parts, etc., in order to accelerate aviation, aerospace, and orbit. Key core components such as transportation are autonomous and controllable.

After the company is fully put into production, it can also promote the development of local raw materials, auxiliary processing, logistics and transportation and other industries.

  The scarcity of high-end scientific research personnel has always been a shortcoming restricting the innovation and development of the central and western regions.

Today, Chongqing Liangjiang New District is solving the problem with collaborative innovation.

The relevant person in charge of the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone said that the Collaborative Innovation Zone has signed contracts to introduce 30 universities and research institutes including Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the National University of Singapore.

  In October 2020, the construction of 13 major technological innovation platforms with a total investment of approximately RMB 15 billion, including the Chongqing Innovation Center of Beijing Institute of Technology and the Joint Industry Incubation Base, was launched, marking the full launch of the construction of the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone. Create a highlander of global innovation resources and elements.

In-depth integration of industrial chain and innovation chain boosts the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements

  While vigorously introducing universities and scientific research institutes, Chongqing Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone focuses on building a technology research and development and industry incubation cluster centered on new high-end research and development institutions.

Relying on the strong industrial foundation of the Liangjiang New Area, the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone is guided by "science and innovation + industry", deploys innovation chains around the industrial chain, and lays out the industrial chain around the innovation chain to promote "deep integration of dual chains."

  In the first half of this year, the automotive millimeter-wave radar project built by the Chongqing Innovation Center of Beijing Institute of Technology was launched. Since the center was launched, it has established cooperative relationships with Changan Automobile and China Automotive Engineering Research Institute. The industrial transformation of more than 10 scientific and technological achievements including slope disaster monitoring in the Three Gorges reservoir area is expected to exceed 100 million yuan in output value within three years.

  After the establishment of the Western Institute of Advanced Technology in the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Computing Technology will focus on technological innovation and achievement transformation in the fields of intelligent supercomputing, industrial Internet and life and health big data.

Tan Guangming, dean of the Western Institute of Advanced Technology of the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that in the past year, the institute has established 2 joint laboratories and implemented 4 enterprise cooperation projects to help Liyang Environmental Science and others achieve intelligent upgrades.

At present, the institute has incubated 6 companies with a total registered capital of nearly 100 million yuan.

  The relevant person in charge of the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone said that in less than two years, the scientific research institutions stationed in the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone have carried out a large number of scientific research in the fields of aerospace, artificial intelligence, and new materials, incubating 36 technological innovation enterprises, and accelerating the progress. The construction of an innovation complex for automobile industry, academia and research, and the creation of its own industry incubation brands such as the Mingyue Lake International Intelligent Industry Technology Innovation Base, has achieved remarkable results in the transformation of scientific and technological achievements.

  In the future, the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone will continue to promote scientific research institutes of universities to give full play to the advantages of technology and talents, and deeply participate in the intelligent transformation of enterprises and the development of new products.

It is estimated that by 2022, the Liangjiang Collaborative Innovation Zone will introduce 50 scientific research institutions of various types, gather 6,000 innovative talents, and complete the transformation of 100 scientific and technological achievements, injecting strong impetus into the transformation and upgrading of pillar industries in the Liangjiang New Area.
