Abstract

Over the past 30 years since the reform and opening up, the Chinese technology transfer system has been constantly developing and improving, and the system, including technology transfer subjects, technology transfer services organizations, and technology markets, has taken the initial shape. However, the Chinese technology transfer system is also faced with several problems. For example, the subjects lack initiative, the services organizations are low in the standard of service, the technology market has not developed a cooperation mechanism and the regulation system is incomplete. Thus, China will take stock of her own experiences and learn from the successful experiences abroad, while continuing to improve the technology transfer system.
