Abstract

Theorists have reached at a consensus that regional innovative environment could promote innovation performance, however the researches are lack of deep understanding towards micro-functionality of regional innovative environment on enterprises' innovation performance. It undoubtedly becomes a bottleneck for the research on regional innovation. The theoretical framework and research hypothesis are constructed; an empirical study based on HLM model is conducted using manufacturing enterprises' data from 52 Chinese different areas to test two competitive options, that is, direct influencing mechanism and intermediation influencing mechanism. It is found that HR environment and institutional environment have the direct influence on innovation enterprises' performance; Culture environment and HR environment have the intermediation influence on innovation enterprises' performance; Infrastructure environment has no influence on enterprises' innovation performance. Based on those results, some management suggestions are also given.
