Abstract

Under the innovation-driven development strategy, university research achievement transformation faces challenges such as supply–demand mismatch, broken transformation chains, and weak collaboration. Following a “current situation analysis-model construction-practical verification-countermeasure suggestions” logic, this study proposes a “four-subject collaboration (universities, governments, enterprises, intermediaries) and three-stage integration (screening & evaluation, pilot-scale maturation & matching, industrialization & service)” transformation model, along with a performance evaluation model and an output growth model. Multi-stage practice at a university shows that the model significantly improves transformation outcomes: technology transformation projects increased from 58 to 210, technology contract value rose from RMB 42 million to RMB 286 million, and the comprehensive performance index increased from 50.0 to 88.4. Countermeasures are offered regarding institutional supply, platform building, benefit distribution, and ecological collaboration.
