In the past, cross-border collaboration was ad hoc. A systematic approach is needed for even the best research to find applications
At a launch ceremony, top local and mainland officials called on the city to ramp up research and innovation to boost its ambitions in becoming a tech hub and a “superconnector” linking China with the rest of the tech world. That is both a gift and a challenge.
The key labs, three of which were newly established, are mostly operated by the city’s top universities, which are in a unique position to provide leading research by the best and brightest local talent.
That is what the national system of designated key state labs has been set up to achieve since it was restructured on the mainland in 2018. It now plays a key role in the nation’s drive to become a pre-eminent global leader in science and technology by 2035.
