NST’s planned startup conversion leads to 26 cases in the first half alone

NST has shifted from a technology-transfer model to a planned startup model, boosting commercialization of public research institute成果.

In the first half of this year alone, it identified 37 pre-startup candidates and recorded 26 startup cases, including planned launches.

The effort is driven by the planned startup platform and the umbrella TLO, linking research outputs to real companies and business launches.

The startups also won selection in government support programs and received awards, helping attract follow-on funding and broader ministry-backed support.
