A new-model research institute jointly established by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Beijing Municipal Government. The institute maintains a high-level research team of more than 100 people, including two academicians.

It is the origin of two original scientific disciplines — piezotronics and piezo-phototronics — and of core technologies including nanogenerators, self-powered sensing systems, ocean blue energy, and new high-voltage power sources. The institute is the international leader in its field; related research is currently pursued by over 5,000 researchers across more than 430 institutions in over 40 countries and regions.

One of China's foremost comprehensive technical research institutes, founded as the Engineering Research Institute of the National Central Research Academy in 1928.

Since 1949 the institute has received 46 national-level awards and more than 340 ministerial and provincial awards. Across more than ninety years it has consistently aligned its research programme with national strategic needs, playing a backbone role in China's economic development.

It operates three national key laboratories — sensing technology, integrated circuit materials, and microsystem technology — and three CAS key laboratories in wireless sensor networks and communications, terahertz solid-state technology, and advanced silicon-based materials.

The earliest new-model R&D institution approved by the Beijing Municipal Government, established under the leadership of Peking University, with world-class laboratories for graphene materials, devices, and applied development.

BGI operates four core research departments — General Graphene Materials, Novel Graphene Materials, Graphene Fibre Technology, and Graphene Device Technology — across 19 independent research groups.

Its mission is to build a world-leading centre for graphene R&D and innovation-driven enterprise, conducting both fundamental research and industrialisation-focused core technology development to advance the healthy, rapid growth of China's graphene industry.

Approved by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and established through the Jiangsu Provincial Special Equipment Safety Supervision and Inspection Institute. It is a licensed technical service platform providing third-party graphene inspection and testing in China.

The centre holds close to RMB 100 million of high-precision testing equipment for metallic materials, polymers, nanomaterials, and graphene-type materials, staffed by senior specialist graphene testing engineers.

In December 2015, four major categories covering 25 graphene inspection and testing programmes passed CNAS on-site assessment.

A national professional industry organisation guided by the Zhongguancun Administrative Committee and approved by the Beijing Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau. It is the core vehicle for Beijing's "one body, two wings" graphene industry development plan, jointly initiated by Zhongguancun Development Group, Peking University, and other institutions.

The alliance exists to build the industry ecosystem and to bring industry, academia, research, and capital into close alignment — specifically to close the gap between technical R&D and market application, and to bridge the "last mile" of commercialising scientific results.

Drawing on full-chain resource integration, it connects high-quality upstream and downstream graphene participants, builds collaborative platforms, and accelerates the transfer of frontier university and institute technologies into industry.

A scientific innovation and technical support institute under the China Geological Survey. Its work covers the evaluation and comprehensive utilization of mineral resources, geological investigation, ecological restoration, and the transfer and application of research outcomes.

The institute has undertaken more than 100 national mineral-resource utilization projects and received 71 scientific and technological awards, including three National Science and Technology Progress Awards. Its research and technical services support resource conservation and more efficient mineral utilization.

A leading Chinese research and engineering institute specializing in the deep processing of non-metallic minerals. Its capabilities include experimental research, engineering design, EPC delivery, equipment development and integration, and high-performance mineral material processing.

The institute operates several national research and public-service platforms, including the National Engineering Research Center for Deep Processing of Non-Metallic Minerals. It supports the development and industrial application of advanced mineral materials through research, engineering and technical services.
