TDP for Academia

With the industry needs as the core orientation, industry-academia cooperation resources have been integrated to implement technology commercialization and industrialization, assist the industry or research agencies in developing innovative products or technology services and creating new ventures or promoting flagship teams to overcome the commonality gap of the industry chain commercialization

Depending on the stage of technology development, the projects funded under this program are grouped into two categories, general projects (bottom-up) and flagship projects (top-down). The projects are jointly implemented by businesses, universities, and research institutes to pool their resources. Together, they commercialize a technology, develop a technology into an enterprise (general projects), or help an industry close a technology gap (flagship projects).

The Program provides subsidies to universities to encourage technology commercialization and business creation. DoIT promotes the “Industrial Value Creation Program for Academia” to encourage industry-academia cooperation to develop innovative products and technology services for market demand, produce key intellectual property and create start-up companies or spin-in business units.
