The following agenda items were discussed and approved in the meeting: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Holding company mechanism.<\/strong> To promote commercialization of research and innovation in public universities and research agencies, a holding company mechanism has been proposed.  This mechanism has already been employed by leading universities and government research agencies around the world.
