多维邻近性对技术创新合作绩效的影响效应——以长江中游城市群合作网络为例

The Effect of Multidimensional Proximity on Technology Innovation Cooperation Performance

摘要:

随着全球化的深入与存量时代的蔓延，国际间竞争越来越注重创新带来的发展驱动力量，以整合不同城市创新要素为代表的城市群建设成为各国实现区域协同和创新协同的重要抓手。长江中游城市群是中国最具发展潜力城市群之一，是最具代表性的国家级中部城市群，对于构建中部崛起战略起到关键支撑作用。本文围绕长江中游城市群技术创新合作网络结构特征与影响因素两个关键研究问题，以专利文献这一重要技术信息数据源为基础，提出一套全面且系统可行的城市群技术创新合作网络分析模型。研究发现：长江中游城市群技术创新合作网络整体呈现出省内合作关系强、省际合作较弱的特点；区域内中间人比较缺失，阻碍了知识信息资金等传播的效能，在一定程度上降低了合作意愿；地理邻近性与技术创新合作绩效呈倒U型关系，且正处于上升态势，能够正向促进技术创新合作网络的发展；地理邻近性与制度邻近性的交互作用正向促进技术创新合作绩效，且二者交互作用大于其独立作用。本文在一定程度上补充完善了中部地区的研究记录与探索，并且所提出的城市群技术创新合作网络分析体系也能够为后续的研究提供一定借鉴。

Abstract:

With the deepening of globalization and the spread of the stock era, international competition is increasingly focusing on the development driving force brought by innovation. The construction of urban agglomerations, represented by the integration of innovation elements of different cities, has become an important grasp for countries to realize regional synergy and innovation synergy. The urban agglomeration in the middle reaches of Yangtze River is one of the most promising urban agglomerations in China and the most representative national central urban agglomeration, which plays a key role in supporting the strategy of building the rise of central China. This paper focuses on two key research issues: structural characteristics and influencing factors of technology innovation cooperation network in the middle reaches of Yangtze River urban agglomeration. By using patents as the data source, this paper proposes a comprehensive and systematic analysis model of technology innovation cooperation network in urban agglomeration. It is found that: the technology innovation cooperation network in the middle reaches of Yangtze River urban agglomeration as a whole shows the characteristics of strong intra-provincial cooperation relationship and weak inter-provincial cooperation. The lack of intermediaries in the region hinders the efficacy of knowledge, information, funds and other dissemination, and reduces the willingness to cooperate to a certain extent. The geographical proximity has an inverted U-shaped relationship with the technology innovation cooperation network performance and is on the rise, which can positively promote the technology innovation cooperation. The interaction between geographical proximity and institutional proximity positively promotes technology innovation cooperative network performance, and the interaction between them is greater than their independent effects separately. To a certain extent, this paper complements the research record and exploration in the central region, and the proposed analysis system of technology innovation cooperation network in urban agglomerations can also provide some references for subsequent studies.
