Synergy effects and it’s influencing factors of China’s high technological innovation and regional economy

Abstract

The Chinese government adheres to the innovation driven strategy and emphasizes that technological innovation is the strategic support for improving social productivity and comprehensive national strength. This paper discusses the mechanism of technological innovation and regional economic co-evolution, and constructs an index system to assess them based on the principles of synergy and systematics. The authors use a dynamic coupling model to study the law of the cooperative evolution of composite systems and geo-detector methods to reveal the main factors controlling the degree of coordination among them. The results show that the total factor productivity of China's high-tech industry showed a "W"type trend of change from 2006 to 2016, and the other indices exhibited a volatile trend. The total factor productivity, technical efficiency, scale efficiency, pure technical efficiency, and technological progress increased by 37%, 13.3%, 3.9%, 9%, and 20.8%, respectively. There was a significant spatial difference in changes in total factor productivity, forming a core-edge spatial pattern with the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River as the center of concentration. Most of China's technological innovation and regional economic complex systems were in a state of interactive development from 2007 to 2016, except in the three northeastern provinces of Zhejiang, Shanghai, and the western part of the country. The degree of coupling of the other provinces showed an increasing trend, and the overall degree of coupling exhibited the spatial pattern of Central > Eastern > Western > Northeastern. The three most influential factors for the degree of coupling of China's provincial complex system were the gross domestic product, efficiency of technological innovation, and expenditure on research and development, whereas the three most important factors affecting the degree of coupling of complex systems were the efficiency of technological innovation, gross domestic product, and number of high-tech enterprises as well as research and development personnel, respectively, in the eastern, central, western, and northeastern regions. Finally, the paper puts forward the suggestions of regional innovation driven coordinated development, technology innovation and regional economic coordinated

Correlation between the Quality of Talent Training and Regional Economic Development Based on Multivariate Statistical Analysis Model

“…Interactive Development of Talent Quality and Regional Economy. Now, China's talent education shows a good development trend, deep development of human resources, to create a dividend of talent-driven regional economic development, which has made an important contribution to the local economy [10]. Serving regional economic development is one of the missions of local universities, and it is the path of common development for both local universities and regional society to establish a healthy interactive development relationship.…”

Analysis of the Coupling Coordination and Spatiotemporal Evolution of High-Tech Industrial Technological Innovation and Regional Economic Development

“…e higher the level of regional economic development is, the more it can attract a large number of high-quality talents to gather, thus providing intellectual support for technological innovation in high-tech industries. On the other hand, regional economic development can provide new market demand for technological innovation in the high-tech industry [16]. Regional economic development is beneficial to optimize the technological innovation environment of the high-tech industry and increase its domestic and international market demand.…”

“…As for regional economic development, this paper refers to the research results of relevant scholars [16] and measures it from three aspects: basic economic level, economic construction input, and economic construction output, with a total of nine indicators.…”

“…For example, Wang took the central provinces as an example to calculate the coupling coordination degree between technological innovation in the high-tech industry and regional economic development [15]. Liang et al analyzed the synergistic effect between technological innovation in the high-tech industry and regional economy in China and found that GDP and R&D expenditure are the main factors affecting the coupling level of technological innovation in the high-tech industry and regional economy [16]. On the other hand, most of the existing literature use econometric methods, and the research methods lack diversity.…”

Enterprise location choice and regional sustainable development based on the theory of stable matching

“…Industrial transfer is of great significance for the coordination of regional economic development, the vigorous promotion of industrial structure adjustment and upgrades, and the realization of China's sustainable economic development (Huang et al, 2020;Ding et al, 2022;Liu, 2019). Industrial transfer is realized through both location selection and the subsequent change of location by enterprises in different regions (Michie and Oughton, 2001;Liang et al, 2020). In the process of industrial transfer, enterprises are the main element in transfers, with the selection of enterprise location conducive to enterprises not only making the best use of the superior resources in other places, reducing production costs, and improving the competitiveness of enterprises but also narrowing the gap of regional economic development (Baas and Boons, 2004).…”
