Innovation Activities of Universities in Modern China

   Due to the fact that China actively strengthens the construction of the innovation system and implements the innovation development strategy, the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, being the link between the market economy and university research, directly affects the competitiveness of Chinese enterprises and the development of university scientific research, so the transformation of scientific and technological achievements — technological advances — are more and more appreciated by universities, enterprises, and the government, and related research results are also emerging. This article mainly combines and analyzes the research of various scholars on the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of universities in recent years and summarizes the main ways of transforming the scientific and technological achievements of Chinese universities, obstacles to the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of universities, and measures to counteract the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of universities. Based on the analysis of internal constraints, such as the discrepancy between the scientific and technological achievements of universities and market demand, the imperfection of the internal system of universities and insufficient understanding of the problem of transforming scientific and technological achievements by the universities themselves, as well as external constraints, such as insufficient financial support from the state, the imperfection of the external system and the immaturity of the market for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, we put forward the need to create a risk mechanism and build a process for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements under the influence of market demand. A number of countermeasures are proposed, such as strengthening the entrepreneurial potential of scientific and technological intermediaries, creating a market-oriented innovation system for research results that clearly defines the areas that need to be focused on in the next stage, and providing guidance for solving the problems of transforming scientific and technological achievements in universities.
