According to a report from the WeChat public account “Inner Mongolia Daily”, on November 18, the Inaugural Meeting of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Science and Technology Advisory Committee and the Second Plenary Session of the Science and Technology Committee of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Party Committee were held in Hohhot.
The report mentioned that in order to vigorously implement the innovation-driven development strategy and establish and improve a major science and technology decision-making consultation mechanism, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Party Committee decided to establish the Science and Technology Advisory Committee. The committee consists of 21 members, all of whom are academicians and experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and related domestic universities, institutes, and research institutions.

Firstly, he hoped that the members would provide insightful suggestions and strategies for the scientific and technological innovation development of the autonomous region, help Inner Mongolia proactively plan the direction of scientific and technological development, formulate scientific and technological development plans, and guide the implementation of the scientific and technological “breakout” project.
Secondly, he hoped that the members would strengthen scientific research cooperation with Inner Mongolia through assistance and guidance, while sharing advanced experiences, ideas, mechanisms, and models to help improve the level of scientific and technological research and development, as well as management and service.
Thirdly, he hoped that the members would fully leverage their advantages of broad vision and extensive connections to recommend more high-end talents and research teams for innovation and entrepreneurship, promote the landing and development of more scientific research projects, facilitate the transformation and application of more scientific research achievements, and attract various innovative resource elements to gather in the region. The Science and Technology Committee Office should provide comprehensive service and support, and all member units and relevant parties of the Science and Technology Committee should fully support and cooperate to enable the Science and Technology Advisory Committee to operate and function as soon as possible, maximizing the fulfillment of the members’ duties.
