Medical equipment silicon valley

As a "perfect model" of American information society and "the hometown of microelectronics in the world", Silicon Valley is one of the most successful high-tech development zones in the United States. Silicon Valley has not only opened up new industries, but also opened up the development model of high-tech industries: venture capital, incubators, stock options, science parks and so on. Silicon Valley is not only a typical representative of the second economic development in the western part of the United States, but also an object for other countries and regions in the world to emulate in high-tech development. One of the series analysis of silicon valley model: industrial development silicon valley in the United States is an industrial cluster supported by high-tech industries and related service industries, and is an economy with diversified technologies. The leading industrial clusters in Silicon Valley mainly include the following categories: computer and communication hardware production; Semiconductor and semiconductor equipment production; Electronic component production; Biomedicine, including research and development of biopharmaceuticals, medical devices and life sciences; Software, including software publishers and software services; Creative and innovative services, including technical services and commercial services (such as human resources and legal affairs); Comprehensive creative services related to art, design and technology (such as graphic design, advertising and marketing); Company offices, including headquarters, branches and local offices. The second analysis of Silicon Valley model series: enterprise vitality gathers a group of world-renowned high-tech companies; At the same time, a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises with strong innovation ability are also the main body of innovation activities in Silicon Valley. A number of world-renowned high-tech companies have gathered in Silicon Valley, and a number of large local companies with strong innovation ability have emerged, even leading the world in some high-tech innovation fields. For example, HP, Netscape, Intel, Apple, Sun Microsystems and other world-class companies. Analysis of Silicon Valley Model Series III: Technological Innovation The federal government's R&D investment in Silicon Valley is growing rapidly, and enterprises are still the main source of R&D investment in Silicon Valley. The federal R&D fund's investment in universities, laboratories and private enterprises in Silicon Valley supports the development of key technologies in Silicon Valley and promotes technological innovation in Silicon Valley. Between 1993 and 2004, Silicon Valley received more than 136 billion dollars in federal R&D funds. Silicon Valley enterprises attach great importance to R&D, and their R&D investment accounts for more than 65,438+00% of sales revenue. From 1990 to 2003, the proportion of R&D investment in the sales revenue of Silicon Valley enterprises was about 1 1% on average, while the average level of American enterprises in the same period was 3%. Analysis of Silicon Valley Model Series IV: R&D personnel in Silicon Valley account for more than 65,438+00% of the total number of employees in Silicon Valley, which is twice the average level in the United States. In Silicon Valley, there have been more than 40 Nobel Prize winners. Local universities provide a large number of technical talents for Silicon Valley. There are 8 universities, 9 colleges and 33 technical schools in Silicon Valley, including the world-famous Stanford University, University of California at Berkeley, Santa Clara University and San Jose University. Paying attention to talent introduction is the most concentrated area for overseas scientific and technological talents to gather and start businesses. Most foreign talents are the outstanding characteristics that distinguish Silicon Valley from other parts of the world. Silicon Valley is the most concentrated area for overseas scientific and technological talents to gather and start businesses. Among them, high-tech start-ups founded by China and Indians account for 23% of the total number of Silicon Valley enterprises in the United States. Asians account for 60% of the technicians in Silicon Valley, and 33% of the high-tech talents come from overseas. The fifth analysis of Silicon Valley model series: Venture Capital Silicon Valley is the birthplace of venture capital, and venture capital has become the main driving force to promote the development of high-tech industries in Silicon Valley. The successful development of Silicon Valley has proved that venture capital is a favorable condition for the development of high-tech industries and new economy, and it has also become a catalyst for high-tech enterprises to start their own businesses. The United States is the country with the largest amount of venture capital in the world, accounting for more than half of the global venture capital, while Silicon Valley absorbs 35% of American venture capital, and almost 50% of American venture capital funds are located in Silicon Valley. At present, there are more than 200 venture capital companies in Silicon Valley. The sixth analysis of Silicon Valley model series: Intermediary organizations play a key role in the industrial system of Silicon Valley and promote the integration of various innovative elements. The professional intermediary service system in Silicon Valley mainly includes human resources service agencies, technology transfer service agencies, accounting, tax agencies, legal service agencies, consulting service agencies, headhunting companies, property management companies, security companies and other service agencies. The seventh analysis of silicon valley model: silicon valley culture The unique cultural model formed in silicon valley for decades is the most profound and lasting factor for its success. The unique cultural pattern formed in Silicon Valley for decades is the most profound and lasting factor for its success, and it is a typical embodiment of American traditional national characteristics such as individualism, liberalism and innovative spirit and modern culture in the high-tech era. The innovative culture of Silicon Valley is embodied in encouraging attempts and allowing failures, that is, it doesn't matter if they fail. It is because of this spirit that people keep trying, and many entrepreneurs, inventors and entrepreneurs have been born in Silicon Valley. The eighth analysis of Silicon Valley model series: the government's support for government procurement has a great impetus to the development of high-tech industries in Silicon Valley, especially the development of emerging industries. The American government promulgated the Buy American Products Act, which played a great role in supporting information products, especially original products. According to statistics, during the period from 1955 to 1963, 35% to 40% of the turnover of the semiconductor industry in Silicon Valley came from government procurement. In addition, the government promotes the development of science and technology in Silicon Valley through R&D investment and related policies. The government provides direct funds and various inputs to the basic R&D that conforms to the national scientific development. In addition to the support of the national government, the support of state and local governments has also played a key role in the development of Silicon Valley. California, where Silicon Valley is located, is a "state of science and technology" with clear science and technology policies, such as encouraging R&D inside and outside the government, setting up a science and technology office (1973), encouraging the development of education, especially technical education, and setting up contact mechanisms with local government agencies such as the "Four Cities Plan" and direct financial assistance.
