The distribution of science and technology resources in China has encountered a series of problems including, for example, scattered
resources, unnecessary duplication and ineffective management. To
facilitate access to these valuable resources, the Beijing Science and
Technology Committee, a local government agency, established the
Beijing Science and Technology Resource Platform (BSTRP) in 2009.
BSTRP introduced market-oriented professional service companies as
third parties acting in cooperation with suppliers and end users of science
and technology resources. The aim of BSTRP was to create a win--win
mechanism without dramatically changing the existing institutional
framework or disturbing the basic interests of the participants. In this
paper the authors report on the development of BSTRP and its progress
to date. They also discuss the theoretical implications of the BSTRP
model. (Contains 3 tables and 3 figures.)
