Abstract: First, based on existing research, the research on the construction of evaluation index system and model for the innovation efficiency of high-tech enterprises is proceeded, and then the innovation activity of 151 high-tech enterprises in Jilin Province is evaluated and analyzed in terms of efficiency, effectiveness, returns to scale, and projection analysis by using DEA method and the data acquired though field survey. The result shows that the general level of innovation efficiency for high-tech enterprises is low, with significant discrepancy between different types of enterprises; and scale efficiency is the main factor that leads to low innovation efficiency; for most enterprises, returns to scale is increasing, and input of S&T personnel and funds is insufficient, leading on to low scale efficiency. Finally, the objective, program, and corresponding policy proposals to improve innovation efficiency of high-tech enterprises are offered on the basis of empirical analysis.
