国内英语资讯:Roundup: China, Belgium see rapid growth in science, technology ties

It's within such a cooperative context that the first step was made towards building a full-fledged China-Belgium Technology Center in June 2016.

The China-Belgium Technology Center is committed to building a two-way green channel for high-tech industries in China and Europe. It provides a platform for technology transfer, strategic investment, industry cooperation and market access.

Although Belgium has many cutting-edge technologies, its domestic market has a relatively limited capacity compared to that of China, which makes the center not only a model base for the "going out" of China's high-tech enterprises, but also provides a fast-track for Belgian and even European innovation companies to enter the Chinese market.

China and Belgium are also actively carrying out joint laboratory construction, bringing together bilateral high-quality scientific and technological resources for international cooperation.

The two countries have jointly established a number of laboratories on global climate change, food security, mycotoxin research, audio-visual signal processing and geographic information.

In an interview with Xinhua, Shen Long, counselor for Science and Technology at the Chinese Embassy in Belgium, said that the friendly relations between China and Belgium are the solid foundation for scientific and technological cooperation between the two countries.

At present, China and Belgium are attaching great importance to the development of science and technology innovation, and the future will witness the opening of a new chapter in bilateral ties.
