The 10th International Exhibition of Inventions and the 3rd World Invention and Innovation Forum are underway in the city of Foshan in China's southern Guangdong Province, displaying new inventions and promoting the transformation of advanced technologies.

The winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics George Smoot pointed out that nowadays, about 85 percent of global economic growth is driven by innovation in both developing and developed countries. In order to go with the flow, people need to know more innovation fields in the future. 

Problems can be further analyzed in the exploitable fields to constantly promote innovation ability and process efficiency as long as people find out which innovation fields are the most advanced. And it can contribute to social benefits and better services for the public by transforming advanced technology into new products in the market.

Smoot said that following the big developments in communications and cell phones, for the next change, he'd personally pick health care and medicine out of many fields that are right for transformation.

With the aim of promoting the transformation and industrialization of technologies and inventions, Chinese authorities have set up the China Academy of Invention Achievement Transformation, covering many of the world's advanced invention achievements, such as magnetic resonance medical vehicles, which have the world's smallest and lightest full-function magnetic resonance imaging system.

The customer service manager of the academy, Xue Bingshan, noted that the operation of the magnetic resonance medical vehicles is very convenient. With the network transmission system, images from the patients can be uploaded to the internet in the first place. Besides, the application of the magnetic resonance medical vehicles is very extensive and will be mainly used to strengthen primary health care services in remote areas of China.

Xue explained that people usually walk hundreds of miles to the hospital in the remote areas such as Qinghai Province, and most people have no chance to use magnetic resonance for physical examinations in their lifetimes. Now due to the transformation of advanced technology, magnetic resonance vehicles enable people in remote areas to enjoy high-quality medical examination services easily.

The challenges to the transformation of advanced technological achievements still remain. Experts said that in the complicated international competitive environment with China-US trade frictions, the realization of innovative values and the transformation of technological achievements must be combined with the popularization of intellectual property culture.

Tian Lipu, chairman of China Intellectual Property Society, said that in terms of protecting intellectual property, China will further realize the high added value of intellectual property in the market economy and fully raise public awareness of innovation and recognition of intellectual property rights. At present, more and more enterprises have gained abundant investment in research and development and patent applications due to national policies.

The exhibition and its relevant forum jointly organized by the China Association of Inventions and the International Federation of Inventors' Associations, themed as "Invent for dreams and Innovate for Future." More than 5,000 invention and innovation projects are on display. The exhibition consists of topic-based zones such as China inventions and innovations, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and enterprise innovation. 

For the first time, the exhibition sets up a distinctive display area for civil-military technology integration projects, introducing military technologies and new products for both the military and enterprises as well.
