Innovation means creation in products, technology,
management and system, no matter it is a state-owned enterprise or in other
forms, said the premier.
China launched the reform of state-owned enterprises
years ago with the goal of establishing a modern corporate system while
developing a group of enterprises of various ownership.
Many new champions have risen from those enterprises in such sectors as information and telecommunications, environmental protection and high and new technology, said Wen.
Only through innovation can an enterprise play its due role in economic and social development and resolve its problems in quality and efficiency, the premier said.
