Construction of Government-oriented Maker Space’s Entrepreneurial Ecosystem ：A Case Study of Golden Port Maker Workshop

Abstract

In recent years, government-oriented maker space has developed rapidly, in order to promote it develop healthily and orderly, it is necessary to build an entrepreneurial ecosystem faced with government-oriented maker space scientifically. Golden Port Maker Workshop is used as a case study to build an entrepreneurial ecosystem. To analysis with the participating subjects and external environment which proposed in the model, three strategies are given including upgrading the entrepreneurial ecosystem's internal functions, improving the entrepreneurial ecosystem's self-organization ability, accelerating the entrepreneurial ecosystem's agglomeration effect, which promotes the sustainable development of government-oriented maker space in China. IntroductionChris Anderson says in the 'The new industrial revolution' that the third industrial revolution is the industrialization of the maker's movement, that is, self-manufacturing products and personal self-production. In this innovation time, thousands of designers and inventors have already appeared, which indicates the beginning of 'Maker space'. In 2010, maker and maker space entered into China, Shanghai new workshop became the first maker space in China. In 2015, Premier Li Keqiang convened the meeting to support the development of maker space, the word 'maker space' was first seen in the central documents.

The tencent institute forecasts that there will be more than 4000 maker spaces at the end of 2016. The file of the State Council says that we should focus on key industries to create industrial innovation ecological community and focus on regional economic development to build entrepreneurial ecosystem. So, building the maker space entrepreneurial ecosystem scientifically has become an imminent major issue. The theory model of government-oriented maker space's entrepreneurial ecosystemMaker space is the important carrier of 'mass entrepreneurship and innovation'. The innovation mode has changed while innovation and entrepreneurship have been paid more attention. It has developed to the network integration patterns which emphasizes mutual connection and function of enterprises. Innovation shows the nature of multiple participation and multiple factors, which makes it be difficult to predict the success of entrepreneurial behavior in maker space. Therefore, it is necessary to use a tool to analyze the relationship between the public space and the participants from the macro perspective. Therefore, it can be regarded as an ecological system of maker space and its external participants.Spilling proposed entrepreneurial ecosystem first. At present, the academic circles believe that there are two types of entrepreneurial ecosystems. One is Cohen and Is...
