15:00 Topic 1: Promote Cooperation in Science, Technology & Innovation for Sustainable Development in ASEM Countries (Chaired by Leader from China Ministry of Science and Technology) In order to facilitate Asian-European sustainable development, build energy efficient and environmentally friendly society, and address global challenges, ASEM countries need to strengthen policy dialogues and industrial cooperation on science, technology and innovation, accelerate commercialization of scientific and technological innovation achievements, and promote transnational and trans-regional technology transfer and innovation cooperation.

Currently, Asian and European countries are in different levels of innovation. Developed countries have technology while emerging countries can provide markets. There triggers practical needs for technology transfer. Meanwhile, with the continuous improvement of research capacity in developing countries, technology transfer should enter a new stage instead of simple technology and market exchange. Given the above-mentioned situation, this part will discuss the following questions:

- What’s the current situation of Asian-European cooperation in science, technology and innovation?

- Is there more space for their cooperation?

- What’s the bottleneck in the practice of their cooperation? - Whether is it necessary to further their cooperation?

- How can emerging economies better use their market potential and technical backwardness in the new era?

- How can developed countries take advantages of their advanced technology? - How can they better deploy their cooperation in science, technology and innovation on higher levels? 15:00 Keynote Speech I Asian Delegates:

Wednesday, 22 Apr 2015 09:00 Topic 2: Deploy Interdisciplinary Multi-level Win-win Asian-European Cooperation in Science, Technology & Innovation (Chaired by European Delegate) Cooperation in major technological fields is one of the most important parts of Asian-European cooperation in science and technology and innovation. It requires examining technological cooperation directions to determine Asian-European cooperation directions, which vary with global economic integration and rapid development of science and technology.

What new requirements do globalization, Internet and Internet-based third revolution of science and technology propose for Asian-European cooperation in science and technology innovation? What influences will new trends in science and technology innovation bring for Asian-European cooperation? The topic, based on the above questions, will explore the most updated technological information, including environmentally-friendly technologies in Asia and Europe; discuss scientific cooperation prospects in major sectors like energy conservation and environment protection, ecological protection, biological medicine, space technology, new generation information technology, urban sustainable development; study the approach of constructing a long-term, comprehensive and future-oriented Asia-Europe technology transfer mechanism to guide future operation of “Asia-Europe Science, Technology and Innovation Cooperation Centre”. 09:00 Keynote Speech I:

1. Delegate in the Field of Energy Conservation and Environment Protection (15 min) 2. Delegate in the Field of Ecological Protection (15 min) 3.

13：30 Topic 3: Share Successful Transnational Technology Transfer Experiences and Study Available Asian-European Technology Transfer Patterns (Chaired by Asian Delegate) Scientific and effective technology transfer model can promote a virtuous circle of innovation system, and make scientific and technological innovation and technology transfer the driving force for regional economic development.

This part, centered on available patterns for technology transfer, will discuss the following questions: What successful experience and cooperation patterns do Asian and European government organizations, enterprises and research institutions accumulate in international technology transfer and innovation cooperation? What experience do joint trans-regional R&D centers, technology transfer centers, incubators and other cooperation platforms accumulate in their transnational technology transfer practice? What are the effective factors behind those successful cases? How to better deploy innovative finance, intellectual property and industrialization capacity to strengthen commercialization of technological innovations in the process of transnational and trans-regional technology transfer and innovation cooperation, and to promote Asian-European cooperation in science, technology and innovation for sustainable development? 13：30 Keynote Speech I:
