It marked that IGRS had stridden a key step in industrialization after achieving magnitude breakthrough in standardization construction field.

He also expressed that the achievements of IGRS due highly to the genuine care of central leaders and strong support of related government departments, as well as active participance and persistent devotion of alliance enterprises. Meanwhile, IGRS explored a characterized way of Chinese standard construction and independent innovation. The main experiences are: “grasp the key, market oriented”, i.e., grasping industry opportunity to deliver key standard, and taking industrialization as the drive, so as to use market as the ”touchstone” of standard construction; “Enterprises take the lead, united innovation” is to exert the coordination effect between enterprises and impel standard construction by integration and innovation; “Global vision, international standard” is to see from the perspective of global industrial development, deliver standard with fair, open and compatible principles, and take standards which have been international adoptive as the goal.

Talking of future development, he expressed that IGRS had wholly put in industrialization “highway”, at present, standard construction is improving, key techniques and application are ripening, industrial chain is maturing, product development and marketing are evolving, the alliance is growing, international cooperation is making significant progress, IGRS has had certain market influence and brand name awareness. IGRS’ future work will focus mainly on standard industrialization and marketing, with the aim of making IGRS standard as the widely-adopted factual standard of 3C convergence industry by the year 2008, IGRS products as the mainstream of 3C convergence products, and ensuring its leading status in industrial transformation.

He Zhiqiang, board chairman of IGRS IT Engineering Center, on behalf of 8 shareholder enterprises, expressed his sincere thanks to the care and guidance of NDRC, MII, MOST, Standardization Administration of China, various local governments and social leaders of all circles. He expressed that after the setting up of IGRS IT Engineering Center, it would devote itself to the industrialization and marketing of IGRS standard, commit itself to independent technical innovation and IGRS brand construction, and perform practical actions to propel domestic independent innovation work.

Later, the presenting of “the light of IGRS” which symbolized the power of IGRS alliance enterprises pushed the conference to climax. Lou Qinjian, Deputy Minister of MII, Lu Hao, Vice-Mayor of Beijing, and representatives of 8 shareholder enterprises unveiled IGRS IT Engineering Center together, meanwhile, IGRS IT Industrial Association was unveiled in the corresponding period. While receiving interviews, representatives of shareholder enterprises all denoted that the setting up of IGRS IT Engineering Center would not only bring positive influence on the development of IGRS standard, but also create new opportunities of its own development. In future, IGRS member entities will strengthen investment ceaselessly, reinforce cooperation between enterprises, actively impulse the industrialization progress of IGRS standard, emphasize on promoting IGRS products and marketing, perfect industrial chain, so as to contribute to the promotion and application of IGRS standard in China.

Lou Qinjian, Deputy Minister of MII, delivered an important speech on the press conference, he said that the setting up of IGRS IT Engineering Center was an important outcome of fully carrying out the gist General Secretary Hu Jintao’s recent series of speeches on independent technical innovation and the spirit of establishing national innovation system in the 11th 5-year plan. It was an apotheosis of China’s industrial standard construction, and of fully advancing enterprise independent innovation ability and propelling industry upgrading. The successful experience of IGRS’ way of taking enterprises as the main body to innovate unitedly and propel standard construction sufficiently proved that the technical innovation system which takes enterprises as the main body was the breaking point of enhancing national competitive power, thus the successful experience that IGRS explored and achieved worth vigorously promoting.

He also noted that the scale of our information industry top the list of world, but the ability of independent innovation was weak, which led directly to products’ low technique content, low added value, so that we could only be seated at the end of economic chain. Chinese information industrial needed to realize the decisive transformation from big to strong, while delivering standards was an important way of realizing this transformation. IGRS’ industrial status and significant value also lied in this. He encouraged IGRS to work harder and make new contribution to Chinese standard and China’s information industry’s way of “to be stronger” through ceaseless efforts.

At last, he expressed that enterprises’ independent innovation represented by IGRS needed highly recognition and active support of related central and local governments. Government departments should exert leading and coordinating function, energetically advocate, encourage and protect independent innovation practice represented by IGRS, create appropriate conditions to stimulate its development and provide effective guarantee for its development.

Dai Wei, Executive Vice-Director of Zhongguancun Administration Committee, noted in his speech that IGRS was an apotheosis of enterprise united innovation and independent technical innovation, Zhongguancun Administration Committee always attached high importance to the development of IGRS and made great efforts to create a most appropriate development environment for IGRS. In the future, Zhongguancun Administration Committee would continue to exert its own advantage, form a perfect enterprise technical innovation service system, and create good conditions for independent innovation and industry incubating, so as to enhance enterprises’ consistent technical innovation ability.

Su Zhongmin, Assistant Director of Standardization Administration of China, expressed that we should drive industrialization development and growing through standard delivering, as well as perfecting standard construction in the process of industrialization development, so as to finally realize the goal of transforming Chinese standards to international standards and seizing the vantage-point in emerging industry. He sincerely hoped that IGRS would develop rapidly, ultimately realize the historical lead-up form a Chinese standard to an international standard, seize the vantage-point in the emerging industry of 3C-Convergence, and become a banner in China’s standard construction.

Xu Qin, Vice Director of Hi-Tech Industry Department of National Development and Reform Commission, expressed his congratulations to the setting up of IGRS IT Engineering Center, he noted that the delivering of IGRS standard was an apotheosis of industry standard delivering, among the 28 experimental unit projects in national “important technical standard research” experimental unit enterprises held by NDRC, IGRS always ranked the first place, no doubt it was the most successful one. He noted that NDRC would begin to generalize the successful experience of IGRS standard construction and its effective mode of enterprises united innovation in key industries and fields, thus forming a demonstration effect.

On the press conference, Beijing Vice-Mayor Lu Hao extended his passionate congratulations to the setting up of IGRS IT Engineering Center on behalf of Beijing, Guangdong, Shandong, Sichuan and Shanghai local governments, he also noted that the development of IGRS standard not only had a magnificent impelling effect on the development of domestic 3C industry, but also had great significance in improving regional enterprises’ innovative power and competitive power and driving regional economic growth. As local governments, they would impel the development of IGRS in links of policy, information, human resource, capital, technique, administration, service, etc., and make full use of the positive influence of mutual stimulation between IGRS IT Engineering Center and regions.

On the conference, Japanese and Korean standard organization sent congratulatory letters to this press conference, in the letters, they expressed that the setting up of IGRS IT Engineering Center would not only have an important influence on China’s future development of information industry, but also have far-reaching influence on the development of Asian regional home network industry, as to the future development of global 3C-Convergence industry. They will cooperate closely with IGRS, and actively propel regional standards’ construction and convergence.

Standard construction is the top bourn of independent technical innovation; independent innovation is not only the only way for Chinese information industry to transform from big to strong, but also a decisive factor for a nation’s scientific career development and the core of national competitive power. IGRS IT Engineering Center is just the positive result of Chinese leading enterprises’ independent innovation and cooperative innovation. We can believe that the establishment of IGRS IT Engineering Center will greatly impel the industrialization progress of IGRS standard, help to improve IGRS’ industrial status and influence in global 3C industry, simultaneously, the “IGRS Mode” it explored and practiced is sure to bring reference for more Chinese enterprises’ way of independent innovation.
