Just 15 years ago, China was home to 200 foreign-run R&D centers. Today, multinationals operate more than 1,500 innovation facilities throughout the country — and this number is poised to increase 20 percent by 2018. But this trend involves more than sheer presence. Over the last 10 years, we’ve witnessed a dynamic shift in what motivates multinational corporations (MNCs) to set up an innovation shop in China. For many, what began as low-cost support for local operations became an effort to adapt technologies to cater to local market demand. Now, some multinationals are changing course yet again: Having recognized China’s rise as a global innovation leader, they are tapping into the country’s thriving science and technology knowledge base to pursue fundamental research.

Why Open Source GIS is A Viable Option for Korean National GIS?SANGHEE SHIN
This presentation will talk about the recent positive change of Korean government's policy toward open source GIS and its background rationale by reviewing past investment on Korean GIS from 1995 to 2011 and related research reports on open source GIS adoptions in Korea.
January 2013, Ministry of Land and Transportation, Korea, announced new mid-long term Korean National GIS R&D plan composed of 16 major action items. Surprisingly Korean government included ‘Development of Open Source GIS’ within 16 major action items. According to this tentative R&D plan Korean government will invest around US$ 15 Million in ‘Development of Open Source GIS’ for next 7 years, this open source GIS development plan should go through feasibility study and get final budget approval though. This announcement was widely accepted as a positive sign of policy change toward open source GIS in Korean government, since Korean government has usually given much preferences to Korean local GIS technology against so-called foreign GIS technology(e.g. ESRI, Intergraph, ERDAS..) and open source GIS.
This presentation will mainly talk about the rationale why Korean government changed its policy toward open source GIS by reviewing the results of past Korean NGIS(National GIS) R&D program. And a research report, ‘Strategies on Building the Platform for GeoSpatial Information Technology Development: Based on Open Source Thinking’ by KRIHS(Korean Research Institute of Human Settlements), will be introduced largely, since this report had great impact on policy change of Korean government toward open source GIS.
3 main parts will be delivered through presentation. Those are as follows:
First, current market situation and R&D model change will be discussed including closed innovation and open innovation. Rapid market change and paradigm shift of innovation model raised fundamental questions on Korean NGIS R&D structure.
Second, past Koran NGIS R&D program, goals and strategies will be introduced. Korean government invested around US$ 200 Million from 1995 through to 2011. And the results, merits & demerits of this investment will be discussed.

Our HK Foundation's report -- based on a draft provided by the Victor and William Fung Foundation through the work of Fung Business Intelligence Centre
This report presents the Human Freedom Index (HFI), a new measure of human freedom covering 152 countries. The HFI uses 76 indicators to measure personal, civil, and economic freedoms in areas such as rule of law, movement, religion, and size of government. Hong Kong, Switzerland, and Finland rank as the top three most free countries. The Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa, and South Asia have the lowest freedom, while women's freedoms are least protected in those regions. Countries with higher freedom have significantly higher incomes. The HFI finds a strong correlation between freedom and democracy, though Hong Kong is an outlier with high freedom but not democracy.
This document discusses alternatives to the current democratic system in Hong Kong that could improve governance. It proposes establishing government-sponsored Future Centres, modeled after similar organizations in Europe. These centres would engage stakeholders in policymaking through research and civic participation. They aim to address issues like policy failures, lack of consensus building, and the government's limited capacity to solve complex problems. The document argues Future Centres could help re-establish public trust in government and alleviate irrational discussions in politics.
This document summarizes a report on crowdsourcing for democracy. It begins with an introduction stating that the report examines cases where crowdsourcing has been used in policymaking processes. It then provides definitions of crowdsourcing, explaining that it involves open online participation in tasks by an undefined group. The remainder of the report provides examples of crowdsourcing applications and analyzes its role and potential in democratic processes.
This document summarizes a report on the future of manufacturing. It finds that manufacturing relies on three pillars: factors of production, standards, and costs. Emerging technologies are transforming manufacturing through new waves of innovation. While offshoring and outsourcing have reshaped manufacturing, new trends toward nearshoring and reshoring are emerging as capabilities develop and input costs change. The report examines these trends and challenges in shifting the global economy.
This document discusses how population aging and increased longevity can create new markets and drive economic growth in the 21st century. It notes that major global companies have recognized aging as a strategic driver of commercial goals and a way to attract talent. While talk of "crisis" is common, many see aging as a powerful market opportunity if the right strategic framework is put in place. Both private sector innovation and supportive public policies will be needed to fully capture the opportunities of aging populations and create environments where people can enjoy long and active lives.
The document outlines 10 innovative urban solutions from around the world that address challenges facing cities. These solutions focus on principles like unleashing spare capacity, cutting demand peaks, small-scale infrastructure, and being people-centered. The innovations highlighted include (1) digitally re-programmable spaces that better utilize existing urban infrastructure; (2) an "Internet of Pipes" using sensors to monitor water networks and identify issues; and (3) using social networks for citizens to "adopt" and care for urban trees.
This document summarizes the history of trade policies used by developed countries during their early stages of development. It argues that contrary to popular belief, virtually no developed countries practiced free trade when they were developing. Instead, they actively promoted their industries through measures like tariffs, subsidies, and import restrictions. Specifically, it discusses how Britain promoted the wool industry in the 15th century and implemented policies like import tariffs and export subsidies in the 18th century to develop manufacturing. The document aims to debunk the myth that free trade led to development and argues historical evidence shows interventionist policies were more common.
The document summarizes five future centers located in the Netherlands that aim to promote innovation in the public sector. It describes each center's focus and goals. The Country House is a joint initiative between four Dutch ministries focused on tackling multi-sector issues. Mobilion serves as a prototype future center for the Department of Public Works & Water Management to address challenges in transportation and water infrastructure. The centers provide workspaces and facilities to encourage collaboration between civil servants and stakeholders on issues facing the government.
The report discusses international developments in IP trading and Hong Kong's position. Globally, IP trading is growing rapidly driven by innovation. The use and creation of IP is shifting towards Asia, especially China. China has overtaken the US in patent applications and leads the world in trademarks and industrial designs. Hong Kong has advantages as an IP trading hub due to its sound legal system, low tax regime, and position as a super-connector between China and the world. The report aims to develop strategies to promote Hong Kong as a premier IP trading hub.
Europe has experienced two fractures in its industrial landscape over the past decades. First, emerging economies like China and Brazil have greatly increased their manufacturing output and share of global production. Second, some traditional European industrial powers like France and the UK have seen declines in industrial employment and value added, while Germany and Eastern European countries have retained stronger industrial sectors. For Europe to maintain 15-20% of value from industry, it will need to invest heavily to transition to new digital technologies and production methods known as Industry 4.0.
This document provides recommendations for implementing Industrie 4.0, a strategic initiative to secure the future of German manufacturing. It outlines a vision of smart, networked manufacturing where cyber-physical systems monitor physical processes, create a virtual copy of the physical world, and make decentralized decisions. The dual strategy proposed is for Germany to become both a leading supplier of Industry 4.0 solutions and a leading adopter in its own manufacturing markets. Key priority areas for action include standardization, managing complex systems, security, workforce training, and increasing resource efficiency through smart networking of machines. The report compares Germany's position internationally and provides examples of potential Industry 4.0 applications.

6. Silicon Valley has a solid industrial
base: R&D, strong manufacturing
capacity, creativity and presence of
grateful entrepreneurs …
7. At a philosophical level
Hong Kong’s industrial development
policy had remained unresolved:
產
業
政
策
Free Market Economy, rule of law,
freedom of information and the need to
develop high value-added industries
acknowledged by CY Leung; however:
•“Service Economy” or “Manufacturing”?
• Current status of “Six New Industries”?
•“Sector Neutral” or
”Sector Biased”?
8. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor:
Build “Expertise Clusters” in Technology-
transfer and Technology-commercialization
BTEC/ITTN in Beijing and APICC in
Hong Kong will jointly apply for
Enterprise Europe Network (EEN)
membership as EEN-Beijing and EEN-
Hong Kong in late 2013 (for approval
and implementation in 2014):
• EEN is the largest technology
transfer network in the world; EEN is
owned by the European Union;
• Enables Tech-transfer and Tech-
commercialization know-how to be
imported from Europe;
• EEN-Beijing and EEN-HK will receive
coaching from EEN-Scotland, a unit of
the Scottish Government.
9. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor
Maximizes BJ-GD-HK’s External Economy of Scale and
integrates “Expertise Cluster”, “Regional Cluster” &
“Industry Cluster” development policies
BJ, GD and HK on their own do not have
all the success factors needed to build a
“Silicon Valley” type of economy:
• Beijing: R&D is 5.5% of Beijing’s GDP
(4 times the national average);
50% of China’sTech-transfer;
• Guangdong: 37.7% of China’s high-tech
manufacturing export;
(Source: OECD Review of Innovation Policy – China, OECD 2008)
• Hong Kong: built on a tradition of free
market and ‘good law, well administered’;
HK uses English as a business language and
is seamlessly connected to
the West.
10. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor
Builds “Regional Clusters” within China,
it is also a practical implementation of
EU-China Cooperation:
Linking people, skills and knowledge
at a Regional Level:
• Strategic transition from focus on
R&D exclusively to innovation and
commercialization of R&D;
• Supports Europe’s strategy for post
2008 economic growth;
•Assists European companies’ wishes
to do business with China through
Hong Kong;
• Supports the national “12th Five Year
Plan” and China’s wish to cooperate
with the West.
11. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor
A strategy for China to move from “Sustained
Development” to “Sustainable Development”
A strategy that combines European
expertise, China’s strengths in
science and technology and high-tech
manufacturing; and Hong Kong’s
service capacity to facilitate
economic transitions:
• China’s “Sustained Development”
(through investment by the State) to
“Sustainable Development” (through
values created from Technology
Transfer and Technology
Commercialization);
• Hong Kong’s narrow industry base
and over-reliance on the financial and
property sectors.
13. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor
Resolves differences and supports SMEs,
service industries and manufacturing
industries in Hong Kong
Focusing on knowledge-intensive economic activities
is NOT a sector-specific (vertical) industry support policy:
• Instead, it follows a “horizontal” policy of supporting all
knowledge-intensive industries that has high value-added
potential -- an approach favored by the OECD and European
Union;
•It resolves the difference between the Hong Kong General
Chamber of Commerce and the HKSAR Government on
“Sector-biased” (e.g. “Six New Industries”) versus “Sector-
Neutral” industry support policies;
• It is also a SME support and Service Industry
support strategy at the same time.
14. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor
Combines high-level strategies and
the know-how and know-who to
make things happen
15. The proposed BJ-GD-HK Knowledge Corridor
Support from industries, consensus
building, practical government policy
and promotion support now needed:
enterprise china
