Abstract:By comparing and analyzing the similarities and differences and characteristics of government science and technology awards in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, in terms of award setting, evaluation methods, award objects, award levels and numbers, review organization and award methods, it is found that the administrative color of Guangdong science and technology awards is relatively strong, and it is difficult for government departments as the main nominees to substantially implement the nomination responsibility, the rich reward derived treatment deviates from the honor of science and technology reward itself and lacks guidance and incentive for young science and technology workers; Macao science and technology award is similar to Guangdong science and technology award, but it focuses on guiding and encouraging young people to carry out scientific and technological innovation; Hong Kong government's science and technology awards focus on the participation and management role of the market and social organizations. The main enlightenment to improve the science and technology award of Guangdong provincial government is to clarify the role of non market incentive mechanism and policy guidance, further optimize the structure of award objects, pay attention to the award of young scientific and technological personnel, implement the responsibility of nominees, highlight the honor and value orientation of awards, and realize the complementary and coordinated development with social science and technology awards.
