????一份最新發布的報告指出，中國企業正在大幅增加研發支出。

????據管理咨詢公司Strategy&的報告顯示，總部設在中國大陸的企業支出水平在過去10年里增長了14倍。入選2014年Strategy&“全球創新企業1000強”榜單的中企數量，已從2005年的8家躍升至如今的114家。

????中國企業研發支出增長背后的原因在于，它們正把重心從從生產廉價出口商品上移開，專注于實現更高質量的經濟增長。

????該報告作者巴里?雅魯澤爾斯基是Strategy&公司的高級合伙人。他說：“在亞洲地區企業紛紛削減研發投入之際，中國企業仍繼續大幅增加投入。”

????他補充道：“中企研發支出已經多年維持兩位數的高增長，雖然世界其他地區也有兩位數的增幅，但相對較低，在13%左右；而北美和歐洲的增長更是要低得多，分別為3.5%和2.5%。”

????這些結果與包括政府支出在內的中國整體研發趨勢相契合。美國國家科學基金會（National Science Foundation）稱，中國政府的研發支出僅次于美國。

????在專利申請領域，中國份額也越來越大。來自中國和中國居民的專利申請數最多。世界知識產權組織（World Intellectual Property Organization）稱，2012年中國的專利申請量已經超越了美國。

????世界知識產權組織日內瓦知識產權及統計部負責人莫薩德?肯說：“在發展方面，中國在過去20年中進步了很多，在技術前沿，無論是專利還是研發投資，中國正在趕超美國和日本。”

????2014年，全球研發投入達到6470億美元。但中資公司的研發投入仍然遠比不上美資公司。美資企業的研發投入規模歷來都高居全球首位，今年達到2569億美元，其次是歐資企業達到1938億美元，然后是位居第三的日資企業達到1167億美元。

????不過，中資企業的研發投入增長也不可小覷，從2005年幾乎可以忽略不計的水平躍升至2014年的300億美元，今年同比增長46%。

????美國信息技術與創新基金會（The Information Technology and Innovation Foundation）是一家總部設在華盛頓特區的科技政策智庫，該基金會的總裁羅伯特?阿特金森提醒稱，中國的企業研發投入數據可能“有些水分”，因為中國對國有企業實施的“獎勵制度”看重研發，因此中資企業會將一些在美國不會歸為研發的活動列入研發支出項目。

????Chinese companies are significantly ramping up their spending on research and development, according to a new report.

????Companies based on the mainland of China have increased their spending by a factor of 15 over the past decade, according to a report from the management consulting firm “Strategy&,” and the number of Chinese firms on Strategy&’s 2014 Global Innovation 1000 has gone from eight in 2005 to 114 today.

????The reason for the R&D growth: Chinese companies are shifting away from producing cheap goods for export and concentrating on higher quality economic growth.

????“When we are looking at the regional cut, China continues to go gangbusters,” said Barry Jaruzelski, the report’s author and a senior partner with the firm.

????“It’s been in the high double-digits for many, many years,” he added. “The rest of the world was double-digit, but lower — around 13 percent — and North America and Europe were positive, but much lower, at 3. 5 percent in North America and 2.5 percent in Europe.”

????The findings dovetail with overall research and development trends in China, including government spending, which the National Science Foundation found, is second only behind the United States.

????Patents, too, increasingly have a Chinese flavor, with the largest number of applicants coming from China and Chinese residents. The Chinese overtook the United States in 2012, according to the World Intellectual Property Organization.

????“In terms of their development, they have advanced a lot over the past 20 years,” said Mosahid Khan, head of the intellectual property and statistics section at WIPO in Geneva. “They are sort of catching up with the United States and Japan on the technological frontier whether it be patents or R & D investment.”
