【环球财经】世界知识产权组织专家:中国的创新进步长期稳定、基础广泛
Xin Hua Cai Jing· 2025-09-28 00:26
卡斯滕表示,中国的创新领域实际上非常广泛,全球创新指数并不只关注某个特定的技术或创新领域, 它真正考察的是整个经济体的创新表现。"很难说中国哪个领域的创新进步最大。实际上,我认为进步 的基础是广泛的。中国长期以来在数字通信领域具有优势,但我们也看到了可再生能源领域的巨大创 新,很多能源技术来自中国。近年来中国在电池、电动汽车领域也涌现了很多创新,生物科学领域也有 突破。" 谈到中国在知识产权保护方面的进步和承诺,卡斯滕表示,这其实反映出中国整个创新生态系统的发 展。"我认为知识产权非常重要。从某种意义上说,它是确保创新者获得投资回报的工具,它的存在是 为了激励创新。你可以看到中国公司正在不同的创新领域申请越来越多的专利,这反映在我们的数据 中。" 《2025年全球创新指数报告》还显示,中国的创新集群数量排名全球第一,共拥有24个全球百强创新集 群,其中深圳—香港—广州集群排名首次跃居全球之首,北京(第4位)、上海—苏州(第6位)集群位 居前十,是全球专利申请、科技创新及创业投资的热点区域。 谈到对中国创新集群、中国城市创新表现的印象,卡斯滕说,他去过至少十个中国城市,其中包括北 京、上海、深圳这样的大城市," ...

善把困难变机遇(思想纵横)
Ren Min Ri Bao· 2025-09-25 22:12
事不避难者进。困难不会自动转变为机遇,要化危为机,必须具备主客观条件,客观条件包括物质基 础、社会环境等,而主观条件主要体现在党员干部是否具有事不避难、担当作为的精气神。面对困难, 那种"大势如此"的宿命论倾向要不得,"一个人努力没用"的思维方式同样不可取。古人说:"为之,则 难者亦易矣;不为,则易者亦难矣。"比如,2018年以来,美国在科技领域对我国进行遏制打压,华为 等高科技企业遭遇全方位"围堵"。我们不信邪、不怕鬼、不怕压,把"卡脖子"清单作为攻关清单,持续 加大对科技创新的投入,在芯片、5G、人工智能等关键技术、关键领域取得重大突破,反而打开了事 业发展新天地。保持迎难而上的劲头,在困难和挑战中看到前途、看到光明、看到未来,逢山开路,遇 水搭桥,久久为功,就能将困难转化为机遇。 坐而论道、闭门造车,是找不到困难变机遇的好办法的,必须走出去、沉下去,到一线去、到群众中 去。基层提出的一条条具体细致的意见和需求,体现着党员干部工作中最需发力攻坚的方向;群众探索 出来的一条条新路子,蕴含着党员干部可以提炼总结并推广到面上的好做法。深入而具体的调查研究多 了,就可以将"山重水复疑无路"的困境变为"柳暗花明又一 ...

唯有创新破万“卷”
Xin Hua Ri Bao· 2025-09-24 21:43
"内卷"终非长久计,创新才是硬道理。所谓"反内卷",不是不重视价格因素,而是要推动竞争从"卷价 格"到"卷价值"跃迁。政策设计中,"新药不集采、集采非新药"规则更加细化,测算下来,创新药研发 投入回收周期缩短了3—5年。此外,就在集采新规发布前5天,国家医保局启动2025年医保药品目录调 整,首次新增商保创新药目录,创新药产业迎来前所未有的红利期。当然,政策托举之外,关键还是行 业自身以真正的创新打破需求天花板、发现新蓝海,同时也需要贯穿行业上下游、链接产学研各方的系 统性创新布局。 众所周知,创新药研发难度大、投入高,一旦成功,回报也高。作为经营主体,药企不能再满足于通过 仿制和外延式扩张来分食存量市场,而应大力投入原研药、首仿药、高端制剂、创新医疗器械的研发, 奋力跨越技术壁垒。当产品拥有更高的技术壁垒和临床价值,自然就能摆脱低价困局,在市场中赢得主 动。比技术创新更加重要的,是构建一个更健康的创新和竞争生态。这需要加强知识产权保护,让创新 者的投入获得合理回报,激发研发热情;需要深化审评审批制度改革,让创新产品更快惠及患者;需要 促进临床与研究机构的紧密合作,打通成果转化的"最后一公里";需要强化质量评 ...

你家孩子就是郑钦文

我知道,这个标题耸人听闻,但我是认真和严肃的。 你家孩子不会在网球领域,也不会以郑钦文的方式获得成功。但她会成功,会以非常高的水平,以你完 全没有预料到的方式,在你完全没有预料到的领域里获得成功,只要你无条件地相信她,允许你预期之 外的事情发生,放手,再掌握一些新的理念和新的方法,跟上时代的步伐。 这,就是当下这个时代的魅力! 它正在爆发着的巨大力量会给我们带来各种各样的惊喜。我们仅需安下心来,静静地等待、观摩。 我得兜个大圈子来谈这个话题。 也是在2022年,我跟一些朋友们说,如果一个系统(中国就是一个系统)偶尔露出来的碎片信息,比方 郑钦文,水平是世界级的,那么我们就有理由相信,这个系统里大概率还有很多世界一流的东西,只是 还没展现出来而已。后来我们看到了潘展文、Labubu、DeepSeek、第六代战机…… 我说这个话并不是完全基于推断,还有相当可靠的一手信息。过去26年,我深度接触了数以千计的不同 年龄段的申请人,从13岁到44岁。过去10年,我充分了解了数以百计的高中生和她们的家庭:学生中 有"别人家的孩子",也有乐呵呵的全班倒数第一名,有非常偏科而"逃避"标化考试的"小朋友",也有叛 逆到以死相逼 ...
