Abstract

Based on the background of university-industry collaboration in Guangdong Province, the innovation efficiency of enterprise university-industry collaboration and its influencing factors is investigated using the Data Enrelopment Analysis(DEA)-Tobit two-step method. The results show that enterprise university-industry collaboration is inefficient in Guangdong Province due to the pure technical inefficiency. Furthermore, according to the empirical research on the influential factors of enterprise university-industry collaboration, the absorptive capacity of enterprises, government fund, enterprise-scale, and the openness of R&D strategy are important factors to affect the efficiency of enterprise university-industry collaboration.
