This year, new quality productivity has become a hot word across the country. In general, new quality productivity has the characteristics of high technology, high efficiency and high quality. The characteristic is innovation, the key is high quality, and the essence is advanced productivity.

It is worth noting that the new round of scientific and technological revolution has played an important supporting role in promoting the formation of new quality productivity. At present, the technological achievements nurtured by the new round of global scientific and technological revolution have reached the critical point of explosion. Disruptive technologies and cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, controlled nuclear fusion, quantum, photon, life sciences, and commercial aerospace have entered a window period of accelerating the transformation into real productivity. For example, artificial intelligence represented by ChatGPT has begun to show a strong role in promoting real productivity.

At the same time, patient capital provides sufficient blood and nutrients for the formation of new quality productivity. Although the equity investment industry is facing challenges such as "difficult exit", "difficult fundraising" and "difficult investment" due to factors such as the macro environment, "early investment, small investment and technology investment" are still the most consensus investment directions.

At the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee meeting held on April 30, it was not only clear that it was important to develop new quality productivity in accordance with local conditions, but also directly pointed out that it was necessary to vigorously develop venture capital and increase patient capital. The industry believes that patient capital, which is not affected by short-term market fluctuations and can provide stable financial support for investment projects in the long term, is an important engine for accelerating the cultivation of new quality productivity.

Therefore, in the current environment of accelerating the formation of new quality productivity, the "friendship" between scientists and investors, two groups that are equally gifted with the ability to "foresee the future", has been amplified. What kind of sparks will be created when scientists meet investors?

Recently, 21st Century Business Herald and 21st Century Venture Capital Research Institute will jointly hold a closed-door seminar on the theme of "Scientists Meet Investors" with the School of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University to discuss topics such as supporting China's basic science and applied science research, exploring unknown areas, creating social value, extending capital value, and capital helping to transform scientific and technological achievements into new quality productivity.
