Passage 2 開放性創新

Recently there has been growing attention to the concept of open innovation, both among research institutions and business community. What is open innovation?  This is what I am going to address at today's forum.  As new start-up companies enter the market in large number, existing companies have to work harder to retain customers, so, what is the answer for companies feeling the pressure?  It is a new business model, whereby companies use external technology, solutions, and knowledge from start-ups, universities, and other research organizations early in their innovation process. This concept allows companies to bring in new ideas quickly, to enhance their competitiveness. It can also save time and money.

最近,無論是研究機構還是商業領域,人們越來越關心開放創新這一理念。我今天在這一論壇上談論的正是這一話題,隨着新興企業大量進入市場,現有的企業需要更加努力,以便留住他們的客戶,因此,這些處於壓力之下的公司應該做出什麼樣的迴應?開放創新是一種新的商業模式,公司從創新企業,大學以及其他研究機構處得到外部技術、解決方案、以及知識並加以使用。這一理念,有利於公司更快地利用全新的概念加強自身競爭力,同時可以節約時間和開支。

點評:

It is a new business model, whereby companies use external technology, solutions, and knowledge from start-ups, universities, and other research organizations early in their innovation process.

注意這種句子當中的,關係副詞比較少見,學生在日常當中要注意之類的關係副詞,比如,thereafter, whereas, thereby, whence, notwithstanding, nonetheless等等,以免在聽的過程當中,失去方向.

This concept is open innovation, which means shifting from a model of closed innovation, toward a more open way of innovating. Traditionally, new business development processes and the creating of a new product took place within the boundary of company itself.  However, several factors have weakened the closed innovation. First of all, the mobility of highly educated company employees has increased over the years, as a result large amounts of new knowledge and expertise exist on the open market. When employees get jobs in other companies, they take their knowledge with them. And this enables knowledge to flow between companies.

這一理念就是開放創新,意味着從舊有的封閉創新模式轉向一種更爲開放的創新模式。傳統上新經濟發展過程以及創造新產品,一般都在公司內部進行,但是有幾個因素會削弱封閉創新。首先,近幾年來,由於受過高等教育的公司僱員,流動性越來越強,因此,大量的新知識和新技術出現在了開放市場當中,當僱員在其他公司就業以後,他們將知識也帶入了這家公司,導致知識在公司間流動。

點評:

這個段落本身的難度並不大,但難在譯得貼合原文,一定要理解正確才能表達清楚。考生頭腦中應該出現的基本邏輯爲:“以前創新在公司內部,但有一些因素影響了這種封閉創新,頭一個是因爲人員流動,把技術帶入了市場,員工就業後又把知識帶入新公司”,在這種整體理解的前提下才能翻譯得貼合原文。

Secondly. The availability of a venture capital on the market has increased significantly, which makes it possible for good ideas and technologies, to be further developed outside the company through licensing agreements. As a result companies have started to look for new ways to increase the effectiveness of their innovation processes outside their boundaries. They actively search  new technologies outside of the firm and engage in cooperation with suppliers and even competitors to create customer value。another important reason is that a company wants to sell to other companies technology it has developed that do not fit the development strategy of itself.

其次,市場上的風險投資變得越來越容易得到,這也就使得一些新的理念和新技術,可以通過許可協議的方式在公司外部發展,結果,公司開始尋求一些新的方式,在它們的邊界之外進行創新,提高有效性,他們積極的在公司外部尋求新技術,與供貨商甚至競爭對手進行合作,以便創造客戶價值。另外一個重要的因素是,一家公司,往往會將那些自行開發,然而不適合自己公司的發展理念的技術賣給其他公司。

點評:

The availability of a venture capital on the market has increased significantly, which makes it possible for good ideas and technologies, to be further developed outside the company through licensing agreements.如上文所述,這一句當中的“風險投資”和“許可協議”都屬於新經濟時代常用表達,如果學生注意積累,難度應當不大,而availability 這類的詞彙的處理也屬於常用技巧範圍,類似的詞還有“accessibility”/”vulnerability”/”elasticity”都可以根據上下文調整爲主謂結構,做到文從字順。

 What then does open innovation work for Chinese companies? in the first place the shift that I have described means the Chinese companies have to become aware of increasing importance of open innovation, the concept of the open innovation is based on the following principles: if you can acquire the best ideas in an open market environment, you will win.  External research and development, in many cases, can create greater value than internal research and development.  A company doesn't have to originate  research when the  technology want is available in  the open market.  leading companies around the world are already using the concept of open innovation because they realize that bringing  in new ideas from small businesses is much smarter than fighting them. The value of cooperation exceeds the threat of sharing information,

開放式創新理念對於中國公司有什麼影響?首先,我剛剛描述的那種轉型,也就意味着中國公司必須要意識到開放式創新的重要性日趨增長,這一概念是建立在以下原則之上的,如果你能夠從開放的市場環境當中獲得最佳的理念,你就能取得勝利,在很多情況下外部研發比內部研發創造的價值更大,如果市場上存在現成的技術,一家公司就不必進行原創研究世界領先的公司,已經在使用這種開放式創新的理念,因爲他們意識到,從小企業當中獲得新理念,這一做法比與小企業對抗更明智。合作的價值,超過了分享信息帶來的威脅。

點評:

leading companies around the world are already using the concept of open innovation because they realize that bringing  in new ideas from small businesses is much smarter than fighting them.這一句子主幹是一個主從複合句,原因狀語because後接一個比較結構,中間存在代詞的指代用法,可謂一波三折,在處理時要聽準關係,小心應對,才能獲得成功。

My company is such a bridge maker. , we have rich experience promoting open innovation and we are uniquely positioned to assist Chinese companies in achieving open innovation, by lowering their risk and improving their success. for example, we’ve helped a major Chinese company adopted a long term open innovation strategy by identifying and introducing the emerging technologies that suits its business model. , we're ready to share our business experience and expertise, with Chinese company, and I’m sure this will help you stay ahead of others in the fierce international market,

點評:

we are uniquely positioned這一表達可以考慮翻成名詞。
