Abstract:     The new round of revolution in science and technology and industrial transformation is rapidly advancing and sparking widespread discussions within the academic community. This paper conducted a systematic review of research progress in this field, highlighting the fundamental differences between mainstream economics and evolutionary economics regarding innovation and transformation. It further elaborated on the intrinsic connections among the new round of revolution in science and technology and industrial transformation, and innovation-driven development. By examining the technological evolution patterns, societal demands, security imperatives, and economic conditions, this study identified the key drivers of the new round of revolution in science and technology and industrial transformation. It also revealed how these drivers shape unique features in technological domains, innovation models, opportunities and challenges, and the competitive landscape. Against this backdrop, the paper emphasized that proactive transformations in institutional areas such as the science and technology system, innovation frameworks, innovation policies, and industrial policies are crucial for driving these changes. Finally, it will offer insights and future perspectives on advancing research into China′s new round of revolution in science and technology and industrial transformation.

Key words: revolution in science and technology, industrial transformation, innovation-driven development, scientific and technological innovation policy
