Innovative Practices in High-Tech Industry Development

Graphene is a remarkable new material with a huge range of potential applications. With a thickness of only one atomic layer, it is the thinnest substance known to man and also the strongest, with a theoretical strength of 100 times that of steel. The Beijing Graphene Research Institute is positioned as a source of fundamental technology for the graphene industry, a base for high-end graphene material production and equipment R&D, a platform for “R&D OEM” for multinational corporations, a hub for high-tech talent and an innovation and entrepreneurship base. The most active application market right now is graphene, which has high hopes for advancements in thermal control and excellent health. Future plans for the graphene sector depend on preparation, and it is essential to adapt our way of thinking and recognize the transition from research to engineering to industrial thinking while moving from basic research to industrialization. The essential solution to the issue of collaborative innovation between business, academia, and research is for China to promote the collaborative innovation model of a single entity and allow millions of firms with internal collaborative innovation capabilities to develop.
