Abstract: The performance of finance and investment of high-tech enterprises in Hubei Province has been empirically researched based on the entropy theory from the year of 2004 to 2007. The evaluation finds that the performance is obviously fluctuat and is not going up with the growth of the quantity of investment and finance of high-tech enterprises. The results also show that pharmaceutical manufacturing enterprises have the best performance on investment and finance, while enterprises in medical equipment and instrumentation industry have the worst performance in the five different high-tech industries; it indicates that the industry with quick growth and high-tech content has better performance on investment and finance. Therefore, the government should pay more attention to improve the growth of performance rather than growth of the quantity on investment and finance of high-tech enterprises.

Key words: high-tech enterprise, investment and finance, performance, entropy theory
