Abstract:In order to better optimize the allocation of resources and promote the high performance of science and technology incubators, Taking 25 science and technology incubators in Guangzhou as the research samples, using the TOE theory framework model, using configuration thinking and fsQCA method to integrate the above Technology Organization and Environment three levels and five conditions, this paper discusses the multi-dimensional combination factors and promotion paths that affect the performance of science and technology incubators. The results show as follows : (1) The performance of science and technology incubators is affected by many factors, rather than a single factor; (2) There are four effective paths to achieve high innovation performance of science and technology incubators, namely, policy-driven configuration, three-force cooperative configuration, environmental signal-driven configuration and service capability-driven configuration; (3) Among the four high innovation performance paths, government subsidies play an important driving role in three configurations, but there is still a group of configurations where government subsidies do not play a driving role. Based on the research conclusions, it is proposed that incubators themselves should further improve the top-level design of new R&D institutions, construct an ecological closed-loop of resource acquisition and resource drive, and improve the internal resource operation mechanism of incubators. The government creates a good ecological environment for innovation and entrepreneurship, and supports science and technology incubators with different development paths. The incubator management department makes different management policies or modes for different types of incubators.
