Enterprise is the basic unit of economic activities and an important carrier of technological innovation. The Ninth Provincial Party Congress proposed to "establish an innovation system that is market-oriented, enterprise-oriented and closely integrated with Industry-University-Research". Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation is of great significance to accelerate the transformation, green development and leap-forward development of our province.

Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation is an inevitable choice to enhance regional innovation ability.

From the perspective of value chain, scientific and technological innovation is a complete process from research and development to industrialization, in which the input of innovative resources, the formation of innovative property rights and the acquisition and possession of market profits are the key links. Enterprises are an important force to realize the close combination of science and technology and economy, and should become the main body of innovation decision-making, R&D investment and achievement transformation. It is an inevitable choice for a region to improve its own innovation ability and strengthen the main position of enterprise innovation.

Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation is the premise and foundation to realize the innovation market orientation. Meeting market demand is the most essential feature of enterprise investment decision. Enterprise innovation activities are different from the technological pursuit orientation of innovation subjects such as universities and scientific research institutes, and its basic starting point is to meet market demand. Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation will make more and more innovation activities face the market. Innovation practice at home and abroad proves that market-oriented innovation activities are more efficient than technology-oriented innovation activities. Let the market play a decisive role in the field of innovative resources, which can speed up the solution of the long-standing problem of the disconnection between science and technology and economy, promote the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and achieve the goal of optimal allocation of innovative resources.

Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation is an important guarantee to enhance the driving force of regional innovation. Under the condition of market economy, the pursuit of innovation by enterprises is an important driving force for regional innovation. Each enterprise faces different internal and external environments and has different expectations of innovation benefits, so its attitude towards participating in innovation activities is also different. Generally speaking, enterprises with abundant innovation resources expect higher returns on innovation activities than those with insufficient innovation resources, and their innovation preferences are also higher than the latter. At present, the lack of innovative resources such as talents, technology and capital is the common reason for the lack of innovation motivation of many enterprises. The aggregation of innovative resources to enterprises will reduce the risk of enterprise innovation activities and improve the possibility of obtaining more profits from innovation activities. Therefore, strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation and guiding the limited innovation resources to gather in enterprises will greatly enhance the motivation and ability of regional innovation.

Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation is the key link to optimize the regional innovation system. At present, the innovation system in our province needs to be improved, the knowledge innovation system is out of touch with the technological innovation system, and the achievements of knowledge innovation cannot provide continuous support for technological innovation; The cooperation mechanism in Industry-University-Research is not perfect, and the mechanism of benefit sharing and risk sharing is not perfect, which seriously affects the enthusiasm of cooperation in Industry-University-Research; The pattern of benign interaction between innovation subjects has not yet formed, and it is difficult to build and operate a highly trusted cooperative alliance. Strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation can optimize the coordination mechanism of Industry-University-Research, and make all subjects cooperate around the innovation goal.

Take multiple measures to strengthen the main position of enterprise innovation.

The key to strengthening the dominant position of enterprise innovation and improving the leading ability of innovation lies in stimulating the vitality and endogenous motivation of enterprise innovation, building the engine of enterprise innovation, realizing the transformation from external drive to endogenous innovation and shaping a new pattern of innovation.

First, we must stimulate the innovation power of enterprises. There are two main reasons for the lack of innovation motivation of enterprises: first, traditional leading enterprises can still easily obtain excess profits by virtue of their low cost and scale advantages, so they are unwilling to bear the additional risks brought by innovation activities; Second, due to the ineffective protection of intellectual property rights, a large number of infringements occurred, and "Gui Li" and "shanzhai" were rampant, making it difficult for innovative enterprises to obtain expected returns, which greatly dampened their enthusiasm for innovation. To stimulate the innovation vitality of enterprises, it is necessary to establish and improve various innovation incentive systems such as technology equity system and patent property right system, and at the same time strengthen the protection of patent property rights, create a fair, transparent and open innovation environment, and enhance the innovation motivation of enterprises.

Second, we should focus on cultivating key leading enterprises. To change our province's big but not strong manufacturing field and realize the transformation of products from "manufacturing" to "intelligent manufacturing", we need to make great efforts to support a number of large leading enterprises, so that they can develop into leaders and weathervanes of innovation and become the "heart" and "engine" of regional innovation. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on supporting state-owned and private large-scale backbone enterprises to innovate R&D activities, give necessary support in R&D institution building and talent introduction, and provide service guarantee for their R&D capability improvement, so that they can play an active role in the process of gear shifting and upgrading and kinetic energy conversion in Hebei.

Third, we should help small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises grow rapidly. Small and medium-sized scientific and technological enterprises have the most potential and creativity, and are an important new force in scientific and technological innovation. Hebei's innovative development needs "indomitable spirit" of large enterprises and "overwhelming" small and medium-sized scientific and technological enterprises. At present, many small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises in our province are facing difficulties and constraints in capital, talents and technology, and their growth space is limited. Therefore, we must strengthen policy innovation to solve the dilemma of innovation and development of small and medium-sized enterprises. For example, innovate financial support methods and implement inclusive financial subsidies for science and technology; Set up an information service platform to provide enterprises with more convenient services in terms of tax relief and innovation fund application, and solve the "last mile" problem of policy landing.

Fourth, we should focus on cultivating enterprise innovation support networks. Attach great importance to the transfer and transformation of scientific and technological achievements in Beijing and Tianjin in our province, focus on building a number of scientific and technological achievements transfer and transformation bases around Beijing and Tianjin, implement policy innovation first, and attract more scientific and technological achievements in Beijing and Tianjin to transform in our province. Vigorously develop new R&D organizations that provide technical services and support for enterprise innovation, promote the market-oriented division of R&D activities, and make it easier for enterprises engaged in R&D activities to obtain external support. Accelerate the construction and development of innovation support institutions such as various science parks, incubators, maker spaces, productivity promotion centers, and technology markets, and provide high-quality and efficient services for enterprise innovation activities. Increase support for key universities in the province, strengthen innovation and entrepreneurship education, and vigorously cultivate innovative and entrepreneurial talents. Support the construction of university science parks, create an atmosphere of innovation and entrepreneurship, and strive to turn university science parks into innovation and entrepreneurship bases and incubation platforms for small and medium-sized scientific and technological enterprises in the province.
