seizes the commanding heights of future technological innovation, and the pull of the "engine" of high-energy innovation is the driving force and confidence for Xishan's high-quality development. On September 16, Xishan deepened the integration of large and large institutes and local industrial innovation and ushered in "great results" - Hunan University Wuxi Semiconductor Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Center was officially unveiled. This important platform led by academicians and cooperation between schools and local governments is accelerating its goal of becoming a "source of" for key semiconductor advanced manufacturing technologies, a "gathering area" for innovative talents, a "demonstration point" for public services, and a "promoter" for industrial development.
Duan Xianzhong, President of Hunan University, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and Director of the Wuxi Semiconductor Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Center of Hunan University, Jiang Chao, Member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee of Hunan University; Zhou Wendong, Deputy Mayor of Wuxi, Fang Li, Secretary of the Xishan District Party Committee, District leaders Tao Bo, Zhang Lin, Lu Xiaobo, and heads of relevant departments of the city and district attended the event.
On behalf of the Xishan District Committee and District Government, Fang Li congratulated the Innovation Center on the unveiling. He hopes that the two sides will take this unveiling as a new starting point to further expand the breadth and depth of cooperation, accelerate the introduction of more innovative resources, break through more "bottleneck" technologies, and incubate more cutting-edge projects, help Xishan become a "transformation place" for key semiconductor manufacturing technologies and a "gathering area" for innovative talents, and provide strong support for Wuxi to build a "465" modern industrial system. He said that the Xishan District Committee and the District Government will adhere to the concept of "scientists first", be good at serving development, create a good environment for the center's operation and development, and work together to create a new situation of school-local cooperation and win-win cooperation between both parties.
Working with large courtyards and institutes is a key measure to improve innovation source capabilities and transform scientific and technological innovation achievements. In recent years, Xishan has implemented the core strategy of innovation-driven by focusing on the goal of "accelerating the construction of a benchmark zone for high-quality development", deepened collaborative innovation between industry, academia and research, adhered to "financial + industry + base", promoted the integration of the four chains of "industrial chain, innovation chain, talent chain, and capital chain", and jointly built 7 major innovation platforms with the institutes and institutes.
The innovation center is led by Ding Rongjun, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. It aims to focus on the research on core application technologies of advanced semiconductor manufacturing, develop high-end semiconductor equipment and devices, create high-end new R&D institutions with international influence and market competitiveness, build 2 to 3 provincial and above scientific and technological innovation platforms, strive to create a national scientific and technological innovation platform, and drive the advanced semiconductor manufacturing industry cluster.
Since the Xishan District People's Government signed the "Cooperation Agreement on the Co-construction of the Wuxi Semiconductor Advanced Manufacturing Research Institute of Hunan University" in 2021, in just over a year, the Innovation Center has completed the decoration of the office building and put it into use, built temporary experimental places and moved into equipment to carry out related R&D work, and completed production plant design.
The school-local cooperation is "accelerated", and the Innovation Center has entered the fast lane of development in building an important industrial service platform and a model of combining industry, academia and research. Since joining hands, focusing on the goal of "building an advanced semiconductor manufacturing innovation center with great global influence and domestic first-class competitiveness", the Innovation Center has focused on ultra-precision manufacturing, high-precision intelligent detection, ultra-precision functional components and power semiconductor devices, and promoted 14 R&D projects, achieving remarkable results in technological innovation, enterprise docking, intellectual property rights, etc.
Cast innovation source "engine" and cultivate future development "growth pole". The Wuxi Semiconductor Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Center of Hunan University was successfully unveiled, marking the entry of the cooperative innovation between Hunan University and Xishan District into the stage of substantial construction.
It is reported that in the next stage, both parties will give full play to the advantages of the innovation center platform, cultivate and introduce a group of high-end talents in technology development and engineering development, form a group of engineering prototypes with demonstration effects and significant social and economic benefits, incubate a group of innovative enterprises with core competitive products, and help build a scientific research highland, talent and technology highland, and achievement transformation and application highland for advanced semiconductor manufacturing technology.
