R&D mode and innovation performance of enterprises within innovative cities

Abstract

Abstract: Improving enterprise innovation performance is an effective way to build innovative city, and R&D mode is closely related to the enterprise innovation performance. By employing the R&D data of industrial enterprises above designated size within innovative cities, an econometric analysis of innovative output of enterprises' different R&D mode is made based on improved knowledge production function.Results indicate that the output elasticity of internal R&D is much higher than that of R&D cooperation, and both knowledge-based output and economic output of internal R&D are showing stability; different R&D cooperation mode has different innovation performance. Correlation analysis indicates that R&D mode selection is affected by the enterprise R&D capability, richness of urban R&D and educational resources, degree of enterprises agglomeration and internationalization, and government support for R&D activities.

Key words: innovative city, enterpriseinnovationperformance, internal R&D, R&D cooperation, knowledge production function
