1. Universities must take the initiative to meet the needs of economic and social development through innovation in science and technology, especially with regards to developing a low-carbon economy. 2. Key aspects of innovation include innovative ideas, organizations, infrastructure, personnel, mechanisms, and information and resource flows between these elements. 3. Universities should promote an innovative culture and construct innovative teams to strengthen their innovation system and abilities.

3. Innovation

4. How innovative thoughts come
Different or more effective products
Effective processes
Good services
New technologies or ideas

5. Induced Innovations
 Labor shortages led to automatic equipment.
 Drought conditions led to improved irrigation.
 Energy crises led to higher efficient cars.
 Environmental regulations trigger cleaner technologies.

6. The Innovation Process
 Research
 Development (up-scaling, testing)
 Production
 Marketing
 Use

7. Role of R&D
R&D takes place during various stages of the innovation process.
Research enables discovery of basic environmental problems
It can play the role of the original source of the innovation ideas .
Research provides better monitoring and management equipment
to identify environmental problems .
Public research enables sustaining development of technologies.

8. Three conditions for
innovations
1. Work hard, pay full concentration
2. Successful innovations must build on your strong points.
3. Innovation must focus on a market.

9. WHAT TO DO
1. Start with analysis and study of opportunities.
2. Go among people, ask questions, listen
3. Focused on specific needs and on specific final products.
4. Effective innovation start on a small scale.
5. A successful innovation always tries to win a leading position,
otherwise you create opportunities for your competitors.
6. Solve the correct problem correctly – be effective and efficient
7. Analyze risks.
8. Use models, scenarios, computer simulation.

10. WHAT TO AVOID
1. Don’t try to be too “clever”. All that is too sophisticated will
almost certainly go wrong.
2. Don’t try to do too many things at once. Focus on the core of
the problem.
3. Don’t try to make innovations for the future but for today.

11. Innovation of research in science and technology in the present era
Innovation need in present era
through research in science
and technology

12. Research of university science and
technology innovation system based on low-
carbon economy
Low-carbon economy
 low energy consumption
 low pollution
 low emission
In 2003 the British Government published the "Energy White
Paper"

13. WHAT TO DO TO SOLVE THE
PROBLEM
Innovative ideas
Innovative idea is the soul of science and technology innovation
system and theory that guides the establishment of the innovation
system to play an important role. It contains what is innovation and
higher innovation, how to evaluate colleges and universities
innovation, how to implement and innovative ways, and so on.

14. INNOVATION ORGANIZATION
This is the actual operation of science and technology innovation
system, including a variety of agencies, organizations, institutions,
etc., which can be divided into multiple levels and categories.
Facing the requirement of the low carbon economic development,
universities must strengthen technical innovation system and
improve levels of innovation and service ability.

15. INNOVATION
INFRASTRUCTURE
This is the essential technology innovation and hardware based on
material conditions. Innovation activities are increasing knowledge
based on age and depending on various forms of scientific
research facilities.

16. Innovative personnel
Talent is not only requiring a certain spontaneity and
individuality, there are but also strong regularity and
society. Universities and colleges should strengthen
its personnel training functions.

17. INNOVATION
MECHANISM
The various policies and regulations as well as
management systems can be able to stimulate
innovation, protect and enhance the higher effect of
external conditions.

19. CONCLUSION
1.
S must take the initiative to meet the needs of
Universities
economic and social development.
2. Universities should promote innovation and innovative culture in
order to create an innovative environment
3. universities should construct creating-innovative team and
learning organization.
4. innovative hardware platform as well as strengthen the software
platform for building innovations
