Recently, MOST (Ministry of Science and Technology) and MOF (Ministry of Finance) organized an expert panel to conduct mid-term assessment of the 39 platform programs launched since 2005.

The experts generally held that obvious progress has been made through nearly three years’ efforts and the co-building and sharing of important national S&T resources has come into being.

MOST and MOF also invited experts to summarize the experience of the platform programs and discuss its development and focus during the later phase of the 11th Five-Year-Plan period.
