特點
我國技術進口是指通過貿易、 投資或者經濟技術合作的方式從中華人民共和國境外向境內引進技術的行為。具體包括專利權轉讓、專利申請權轉讓、專利實施許可、技術秘密(專有技術)轉讓、技術服務和其他方式的技術轉移。
第一階段。共簽訂技術引進契約 845 項,契約金額為119.7億美元,該階段引進的項目主要是基礎工業項目,技術引進的方式主要是成套設備引進的單一方式, 技術引進工作的組織管理高度集中,資金來源基本是國家撥款,技術引進業務也完全由專營公司負責。
第二階段。我國共對外簽訂技術引進契約 5784項,契約總金額為 539.8 億美元,該階段技術引進的決策與管理體制出現了較大變化, 由原來中央統一管理轉變為中央和地方分級管理,逐步走上科學化、規範化、法制化的軌道,同時將引進國外先進技術和成套設備與現有企業的技術改造並舉,而且引進技術的消化、吸收也工作得到一定程度的加強。
第三階段。技術引進穩步全面展開。1995 年是我國技術引進工作大發展的一年,共簽訂技術和設備引進契約 3629 項,契約總計金額 130.32 億美元,這一年國家增加了對技術引進資金的投入尤其是加大了對重大項目的投入,技術引進的資金來源實現多樣化,並且進一步深化了對技術引進工作的管理,國外環境明顯改善,為我國技術引進提供了良好的條件。 1996 年共簽訂技術和設備引進契約 6074 項,契約總計金額 152.57 億美元, 這一年引進技術和設備的國家/地區、領域均出現了多元化,資金渠道拓寬,企業自主籌集資金的比例不斷增加。1997 年共簽訂技術和設備引進契約 5984 項,契約總計金額 159.23億美元,這一年技術引進的國別和領域多元化進一步加深, 軟體和硬體技術的比例進一步最佳化,從過去基本依
靠引進成套設備向引進專利、專有技術等軟體技術轉化。1998 年共簽訂技術和設備引進契約 6254 項,契約總計金額 163.75 億美元,這一階段技術和設備引進主要集中在能源、交通、通訊、電子和化工等領域,同時鼓勵企業引進高新技術,引進的國別仍然集中在主要工業已開發國家,但技術引進的主體隨著現代企業制度的確立越來越趨於多元化。
