R & D strength investment intensity was 1.73%, an increase of 0.07 percentage points over the previous year.

This also means that the province's R & D fund investment exceeded the 100 billion yuan mark for the first time, and the investment intensity reached a record high.

In terms of regions, there are two areas with R & D funding for more than 10 billion yuan, namely Zhengzhou 31044 billion yuan and 15.391 billion yuan in Luoyang.

The ratio of R & D funding and GDP is called R & D intensity. It not only reflects the support of a region for research and development activities, but also largely reflects the level of economic transformation and upgrading and the level of high -quality development. Last year, there were 6 areas with investment intensity of R & D in our province exceeding the average level of the province.

"Zheng Luoxin's self -founded district has gathered more than 70%of the national innovation platforms in the province and about 60%of high -tech enterprises, which has become the core growth pole leading the province's innovation and development." Zheng Guangjian said.

"In the next step, in terms of comprehensively improving the innovation system and improving the innovation capabilities of the region, we must continue to increase government support to form a pattern of diversified capital investment; build a first -class innovation platform to strengthen the status of corporate innovation subjects; accelerate the pace of development of higher education, enhance the enhancement The innovation capabilities of colleges and universities; vigorously introduce scientific and technological innovation talents and stimulate the vitality of innovation.
