Theme

Building a Bridge between Science and Industry


Led by Academician WANG Zhonglin and supported by CUSPEA Scholars in China and beyond, a group of CUSPEA scholars have established in Wenzhou two not-for-profit organizations: CUSPEA Institute of Technology (“CUSTech”) and CUSPEA Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Technology (“CFAST”). CUSTech represents an all-new industrial technology institute that is dedicated to translate cutting-edge scientific findings into high-tech products and to realize commercialization goals. Upon the founding of CUSTech, we gather here for this high-level symposium that brings together industry-academia-research stakeholders, embracing the spirit in the inscription of Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee that goes “Pool energy to prosper the society and innovate to benefit the people”. The participants will brainstorm on the policies, strategies, experience, and lessons surrounding the commercialization of scientific findings amid new situations inside and outside China, thereby helping build a bridge from science to industry. In addition, CFAST will announce the “CUSPEA Prize”, which is designed to reward young scientists contributing significantly to international scientific exchange and cooperation, thus taking science to all humanity.
