创新发展
作为“五大发展理念”之首，创新发展注重的是解决中国发展的动力问题。中国把创新作为引领发展的第一动力，期望以此实现从要素驱动转向创新驱动、从依赖规模扩张转向提高质量效益，加快形成以创新为主要引领和支撑的经济体系和发展模式。创新发展的基本要求是，把创新摆在国家发展全局的核心位置，不断推进理论创新、制度创新、科技创新、文化创新等各方面创新，让创新贯穿党和国家一切工作，让创新在全社会蔚然成风。“十三五”期间，中国将把发展基点放在创新上，增强自主创新能力，并从培育发展新动力、拓展发展新空间、深入实施创新驱动发展战略、大力推进农业现代化、构建产业新体系、构建发展新体制、创新和完善宏观调控方式等七个着力点，绘制、实施创新发展的路线图。
Innovative Development
As the first of the five concepts for development, innovative development focuses on what drives China's development. As the most critical growth driver, innovation is regarded as a means to propel the country's transition from an input-driven economy to one driven by innovation, and from relying on size and scale to one based on improved quality and increased efficiency, quickly forming the economy and development mode with innovation as the guiding and supporting force. To achieve the goals for innovative development, innovation should be placed at the center of the nation's development strategy, with consistent efforts to push for innovation in all areas, including theories, institutions, science and technology, and culture. Innovation will become an integral part of everything the CPC and the government do, and an idea that is embraced and implemented in all walks of life.
During the 13th Five-year Plan (2016-2020) period, innovation will be used as an important approach to boost growth and reinforce creativity. In order to achieve innovative development, China plans to put in more effort in a number of areas: developing new drivers for growth, expanding space for further development, enhancing the implementation of innovation-driven development strategies, accelerating the process of agricultural modernization, transitioning to a new industrial structure and a new institutional base that facilitate development, and improving ways for macro-economic adjustment.
