Abstract:In this article, we constructed an innovative city evaluation index system form the knowledge innovation ability, technology innovation ability, government’s innovation management ability, innovation environment and innovation performance expression. And then, we used the Entropy-TOPSIS method and obstacle degree model to evaluate the construction of innovative city of Putian city. The results showed that the composite index of innovative city present as an upward trend in general, but the innovative index of each subsystem was differently, such as the innovative indexes of knowledge innovation ability, innovation environment and innovation performance expression changed quickly than the index of technology innovation ability. The obstacle degree analysis showed that technology innovation ability gradually replaced the innovation performance expression, became a critical hindrance in the innovative city construction. At last, we put forward some countermeasures.
