The exchange is built and operated based on Zhongguancun International Technology Trading Center, which serves as the supporting entity. It is a key measure for Beijing to promote high-quality development, deepen integration of scientific and technological innovation with industrial innovation, and is an important support for building the Beijing (Jing-Jin-Ji) International Science and Technology Innovation Center. It plays a significant role in accelerating the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, empowering the innovation ecosystem, and fostering new productive forces.

As the supporting entity for the construction of the trading center, China Technology Exchange (hereinafter referred to as Zhongji Suo), under Beijing Property Exchange, focuses on providing trading services. By establishing a comprehensive “Contract Registration + Technology Trading + Evaluation and Consulting + Science and Technology Finance” service system, it works on resource integration, element convergence, and transaction promotion. The goal is to strengthen the service capabilities of the trading center for technological and industrial entities’ independent and open innovation, further improving the effectiveness of technology transfer and transformation.

In terms of resource integration, Zhongji Suo has built and operated the Beijing Science and Technology Achievements Information System, which has cataloged over 8,700 projects. It has also established a patent open licensing information release and trading platform, which has published more than 4,000 patent technologies. As a trading service organization, it continuously gathers potential transaction results across various fields, becoming an important part of the trading center’s high-quality achievement resources and integrating into the achievement database. Regarding element convergence, Zhongji Suo’s practical experience in intellectual property securitization and pledge financing will support the exploration of new paths and models for integrating technology and capital elements within the trading center. Since issuing Beijing’s first patent licensing intellectual property securitization product in 2021, it has completed six securitization phases, successfully financing 1.418 billion yuan for 72 tech-based enterprises in Beijing.

In terms of transaction promotion, leveraging Zhongji Suo’s trading service system, the center offers multiple transaction pathways, including listing trading, inquiry trading, technology acquisition, and open licensing, based on the needs of supply and demand sides. It also integrates Zhongji Suo’s capabilities in technology achievement evaluation and policy research consulting into the transaction transformation system, providing solid support for universities, research institutes, central and state-owned enterprises, and tech companies to promote the realization and transfer of achievements.

Guo Shugui, Chairman of Zhongji Suo, stated that since its establishment in 2009 with approval from the State Council, Zhongji Suo has been dedicated to the field of technology achievement transformation for 17 years. It has developed a full-process service system called “Deng Yi Rong Chuang Fu” and a mature “Multi-party Linkage Eight-step Method.” As the supporting entity for the trading center, Zhongji Suo is also a joint undertaking unit of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology’s National Unified Technology Trading Service Platform and the National Intellectual Property Operation (Beijing) Trading Platform, among other national-level platforms. With a complete service chain, rich practical experience, and an open cooperative mindset, Zhongji Suo will deeply integrate into the trading center’s innovation ecosystem, fully supporting the construction of the national unified technology trading service platform and serving as a key hub for international technology transfer and transformation, contributing to the high-quality development of the capital and accelerating technological self-reliance and strength.
