Recently, the Provincial Department of Science and Technology announced the list of recognized strategic alliances for industrial technology innovation in 2025. Six innovation alliances focusing on key areas were successfully shortlisted, covering key tracks such as recycled aluminum, environmental protection equipment, smart agriculture, and intelligent medicine. This marks a new level in the construction of our province's industry university research integration innovation system and injects strong technological momentum into the transformation of resource-based economy.
The six major alliances recognized this time have undergone multiple rounds of strict screening, including formal review, conference evaluation, and on-site inspections. The leading units cover top universities, backbone enterprises, and professional medical institutions in the province, building a multi-dimensional innovation pattern of "university research empowerment, enterprise leading, and institutional collaborative support". Among them, the Regenerated Aluminum Industry Alliance led by Taiyuan University of Science and Technology focuses on recycling and technological upgrading to support the development of low-carbon manufacturing industry; The environmental protection equipment industry alliance led by Shanxi Huineng Technology Co., Ltd. focuses on core technology research and development, providing hardware support for green development; Shanxi Agricultural University (Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences) is a dual wheel drive university, leading two alliances: cold chain logistics and smart agriculture, to solve the technical pain points of the entire modern agricultural "production, transportation, storage, and sales" chain; The Intelligent Medical Industry Alliance led by Taiyuan University of Technology promotes the deep integration of artificial intelligence, big data, and medical health, and optimizes the diagnosis and treatment service model; The Organization Engineering and Stem Cell Fusion Industry Alliance, led by the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, focuses on the forefront of biomedical research and explores new paths for regenerative medicine and the treatment of difficult diseases.
As an important measure to deepen the reform of the science and technology system and build a modern industrial system in our province, the alliance integrates innovation resources upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, breaks down innovation barriers, and forms a complete innovation chain of "demand-oriented joint research and development achievement transformation industrial application". After the establishment of the alliance, we will concentrate our advantageous forces to overcome key core technologies, cultivate high-quality innovative talents, build a platform for technology exchange and achievement transformation, comprehensively enhance the independent innovation capabilities and core competitiveness of related industries, and lay a solid foundation for innovation in promoting high-quality development and developing new quality productivity in Shanxi. The relevant person in charge of the Provincial Department of Science and Technology stated that in the future, we will continue to improve the alliance's support policies and guarantee conditions, strengthen supervision and management, activate the "multiplier effect" of scientific and technological innovation, accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological achievements into real productivity, and promote the transformation of industrial structure towards high-end, intelligent, and green.
