Barriers and Opportunities for Technology Transfer A country study in China

1. Barriers and Opportunities for Technology TransferA country study in China By Li Junfeng April 9-10, 2003 Ghent, Belgium

2. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 2 Basic needs of the technology transfer in the developing countries to meet the sustainable development in long term requirement to introduce the best practice of technologies to meet such kind of development to bring financial support for the introduction of such kind of technology to build up an environmental to receive such kind of technology and mechanism To set up an innovation capability

3. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 3 What kind of technology do we real need energy efficiency renewable energy clean production, and any of the environmental sound technologies the mechanism for the innovation of such kind technologies

4. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 4 What are the major issues of the technologies transfer limited financing institutional capability jurisdictional complexity and, the need for community involvement Marketing acceptance

5. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 5 what are the major barriers of the technologies transfer capacity for innovation and diffusion, barriers for efficient technology use, institutional structure and, human capacity aspects.

6. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 6 Barriers of Climate change mitigation projects faced general barriers, such as: market imperfections, political problems and, the often-neglected transactions costs; the unfamiliarity with technologies, such as: methane capture, wind power generation potential electricity generation unwillingness to commit additional human capacity for climate mitigation, and the involvement of diverse institutions at all levels.

7. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 7 The real barriers of technology transfer under the climate changes no one wants to transfer their technologies if the initial cost of technology R & D is not covered transfer a black box is the normal way of current technologies transfer there is no free lunch in the market based technologies transfer Technology transfer dose not means the equipment sales and free offer therefore, who will be the financial suppliers for the Technologies transfer is the key

8. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 8 Basic needs for technology transfers in China Ability of technology development Ability of equipment manufactures Ability of new products/technology marketing Ability of technology innovation

9. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 9 Options of the technology transfer alleviate the barriers of the technologies transfer within the normal economic exchange program increase the technology transfer component within the ODA program set up a special fund, like GEF, to support the climate change related technology transfer

10. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 10 Green lighting - A successful story of technology transfer Government based technical and financial support with ODA money Market orientation, enterprises based technology transfer Phillips & other developed joint venture in China World wide marketing strategy Enabling the environment Policies framework development for local market development Local technical capacity building Local manufactures Local technology innovation capacity building

11. 2012-7-17 Li Junfeng 11 Conclusion & comments Technology transfer needs special financing support Technology transfer can be conducted through ODA and other channel Enabling environment in both side is equally important Developed countries: financial and other mechanism Developing countries: acceptation and innovation ability development
