Abstract:Scientific infrastructure is the basis and the premise of scientific activities and innovation. Today, facilitating scientific infrastructure sharing is an important policy goal for every country. This paper begins with a brief review of China''s efforts of promoting the scientific infrastructure sharing between different innovation actors in recent years, as well as describing the current challenges faced by China to strengthen the sharing. Then, the paper sheds light on the valuable experiences of several foreign countries sharing large scientific instruments and equipment, natural science and technology resources, scientific data and scientific literatures. Finally, referring to foreign experiences, this paper concludes four policy implications to further promote China''s scientific infrastructure sharing.
