The Central Science and Technology Commission (CSTC) is a commission of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) that supervises and coordinates science and technology related policymaking across ministries, agencies, research institutes and industry.
The CSTC was established in March 2023 under CCP general secretary Xi Jinping as part of a series of institutional reforms.[1] The commission held its first meeting in July 2023. The Ministry of Science and Technology subsequently announced on its website that cadres were studying the outcome of the meeting.[2] In June 2024, Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang was revealed to be the leader of the Commission.[1]
