Chinese government have been putting force in the free opening of science and technology centers since 2015. The free opening policy led to a series of problems and potential problems such as policy risk, safety risk, financial risk and consensus risk, all of them have been increasing sharply in the recent 2 years. However, attention to these risks are extremely poor and essential system for risk control was not well constructed. Based on a survey to the free opening science and technology centers in China which was conducted by National Academy for Innovation Strategy at the national level, this research made identification, evaluation and typology to current risks in free opening science and technology centers. Furthermore, thanks to the efficient data collection and the sufficient analysis to the raw data, a co-governance system based on stakeholders was proposed in this paper to promote the work of free opening in continually.
