东西部区域协同创新水平测度及提升对策研究 —以宁夏和10个东部地区省份为例

Measurement and Enhancement Strategies for Collaborative Innovation Levels in Eastern and Western Regions: A Case Study of Ningxia and 10 Eastern Provinces

摘要:

东西部区域协同创新是促进区域科技创新体系完善、推动跨区域协同创新的关键举措。本研究通过构建宁夏与东部省份的科技协同创新指标体系，运用熵值法确定各级指标的权重，系统性地评估了2017至2021年间宁夏与10个东部地区省份之间的科技协同创新水平。通过对综合创新水平和协同创新水平两个一级指标的深入分析，研究表明：宁夏与东部地区科技协同创新水平明显提高，但宁夏在综合创新水平上与东部地区相比仍有显著差距；东西部主体间和区域间的协同创新极大促进了宁夏的区域创新能力提升，凸显了区域协同创新在提升西部省份科技创新能力、促进地区间资源共享和优势互补、加速地区经济发展的重要作用。因此，要从增强资源配置的强度、促进人才要素流动、驱动有效创新产出和加强主体间与区域间协同四个方面实现科技创新协同发展。研究结果不仅为宁夏与东部地区省份之间的科技协同创新提供了实证支持，也为缩小东西部发展差距、促进技术和知识交流提出了具体对策建议。

Abstract:

East-West regional collaborative innovation is a key measure to enhance the regional science and technology innovation system and promote cross-regional collaborative innovation. This study constructs a science and technology collaborative innovation indicator system for Ningxia and the eastern provinces by utilizing the entropy method to determine the weights of various indicators, and systematically assesses the level of scientific and technological collaborative innovation between Ningxia and ten eastern provinces from 2017 to 2021. Through detailed analysis of two primary indicators, the overall innovation level and the collaborative innovation level, the research reveals significant improvements in the level of scientific and technological collaborative innovation between Ningxia and the eastern regions. However, Ningxia still exhibits a considerable gap in the overall innovation level compared to the eastern regions. The collaborative innovation between entities in the East and West and across regions has significantly enhanced Ningxia's regional innovation capability, highlighting the important role of regional collaborative innovation in improving the scientific and technological innovation capacity of western provinces, promoting inter-regional resource sharing and complementary advantages, and accelerating regional economic development. Therefore, achieving synergistic development in scientific and technological innovation requires focusing on enhancing the intensity of resource allocation, promoting the mobility of talent, driving effective innovation outputs, and strengthening collaboration among entities and across regions. The research findings not only provide empirical support for the scientific and technological collaborative innovation between Ningxia and the eastern provinces but also offer specific strategies and suggestions for narrowing the development gap between the East and West and fostering technological and knowledge exchange.
