In China, emerging industry research just started while lack of systematic methodology and scientific tools. This paper analyzed the research contents, theoretical basis, methods and tools of emerging industry research, and set up the logical structure of emerging industry research. Then based on the discussion of problems existed, put forward three points which should be emphasized in the methodology research on emerging industry: focus on historical documents and network information resources, application of modern analysis tools and combination between methods and tools.
This paper initially designs 25 affecting factors of choosing generic technology according to its characteristics, and gets 18 main affecting factors by scientifically screening, then uses PCA to confirm the weight of factors and calculation formula of generic technology choosing, next, invites experts in related regions to score the candidates of generic technology by using Improved Delphi Method, finally chooses the one that government plans to develop, and also lists a detail example.
The goals of inducement prizes are an enormously encouraging people’s potential wisdom, extremely promoting technology innovation, and seeking solution for urgent problems. Inducement prices have a long history of nearly 300 years since the year of 1714. Inducement prizes have some characteristics in sponsor, recipient and technology program. Inducement prizes are meaningful in encouraging exploration and enhancing people’s passion about science and technology. Inducement prizes also compensate the downsides of government R&D appropriation. It’s important and necessary for us to set up inducement prizes.
Aiming to analyze the overall status of the support of science funding on SCI paper publishing, we choose 10 countries with most SCI papers in 2011 as research objects, including USA, China, Germany, Britain, Japan, France, Italy, Canada, Spain, Australia. The result shows that the ratio of funding papers in China is as high as 77.79%, much greater than other countries. Grants per funding paper of China reach 2.98, while Spain also reaches 2.74. And the grants per funding paper of Japan are relative low. Moreover, though the analysis of main funding agencies, it is shown that different countries show different patterns. 3 main patterns are summarized, which are, single funding agency predominated, double funding agencies predominated, diversified funding source pattern.
This paper selects intellectual property rights and international trade as two dominant factors of China’s economic development, and assumes that GDP per worker are composed by fixed-asset investment, average years of education and total factor productivity, then empirically investigate the contribution of the two factors to GDP per worker. Firstly, the paper chooses the method of calculating China’s total factor productivity, and constructs empirical regression model. Secondly, we calculate China’s physical capital stock, total factor productivity and level of intellectual property rights from 1985 to 2009, respectively. Finally, we conduct empirical analysis using China’s time series data. The results show that intellectual property rights and international trade are both determinants of China’s long-term economic development. The contribution of international trade to China’s economic development is largely through the channel of fixed-asset investment and technology advancement, and the contribution of intellectual property rights to China’s economic development is largely through the channel of high quality labor.
Market-oriented reforms affect R&D input through the ownership structure and the market environment which includes level of marketization and demand for new products and funding environment. This article selects the panel data of China’s high-tech industries during the period of 1995 to 2010, and using GMM method make an empirical analysis of the market-oriented reforms influence on the R&D input. The result shows that improvement of level of marketization and growth of demand for new products have significant positive impact on R&D input. Moreover the impact is more significantly after joining WTO. The improved funding environment promotes the growth of high-tech industry R&D input. Too concentrated state-owned property is against the growth of R&D capital investment, but it leads to too much R&D manpower input. Market power has a non-linear inverted U-shaped relationship with R&D capital investment and R&D manpower input. The influence of firm size on R&D capital investment is uncertain, but it has significant positive impact on the growth of R&D manpower input.
The government supports the corporation innovation through direct R&D subsidies, tax exemption and policy inducement. However, there is litter literature pay attention to the efficiency of government R&D support. This article proposes a three-stage DEA model based on Super-SBM method to measure the efficiency of government R&D support and find out that technological and operational capability among factors of enterprises as well as characteristics of corporations among factors of external environment exert tremendous influences on the input and/or output slacks. With the help from econometrics technique, we shed more light on the effect of enterprises’ R&D expenditure on the efficiency of government R&D support. After controlling the ratio of government R&D subsidies to enterprises’ R&D input, the R&D input itself perform positive influence on efficiency of government R&D support, while the ratio plays a negative moderating role in this relationship. it concludes by presenting that government should the ratio lower than a certain value; only if the R&D input lower than the critical value can the government increase that ratio favorably.
Based on the information about inventors and applicants as defined by the United States Patent and Trademark (USPTO), this study sets up a 3x3 matrix to analyze a country’s patterns of internationalization of innovation. Based on this new model we analyze the longitudinal processes in internationalization of innovation from several typical countries, including Germany, Japan, and South Korea in the period of 1980 to 2009. Moreover, this study pays particular attention to China national systems in the same frame and provides some far-reaching implications for Chinese authorities to implement international strategies of Chinese national innovation system.
Both the leadership effectiveness and innovation performance of scientific research team are determined to a large extent by the team leadership competencies. According to the results of interviewing 41 investigators, the study proposed 9 team leadership abilities. We investigated 102 research teams from 10 institutes in Chinese Academy of Sciences by questionnaires. The results of factor analysis suggest that the leadership competencies of scientific research team are composed of scientific charisma, scientific insight, scientific motivation, scientific boost and scientific leading strength. The results of discriminant analysis suggest that leadership models of scientific research teams are classified as opportunity model, Guan-Xi model and brand model. Finally we raised promotion strategies of each leadership model.
Previous studies have conflict conclusions of the "alternative" and "complementary" interaction between enterprise independent research and University-Industry Cooperation (UIC). One of the reasons is not fully consider the impact of contextual variables in the organic integration between enterprise R&D modes. In this study, the context role and threshold effect of enterprise R&D investment between enterprise R&D modes is test empirically by constructing a threshold effect model. The results show that R&D investment not only has impact on the selection of research mode, but also have the threshold effect on the interaction between enterprise independent research and UIC. Among them, R&D investment plays a complementary threshold role in technology-intensive industries and capital-intensive industry, but an alternative threshold role in the labor-intensive industry.
An increasing number of attentions to entrepreneurial behavior of university spin-offs in cluster context are paid by scholars, and it is becoming important to research critical influencing factors. Based on grounded theory, we refine the critical influencing factors called CREC model, which includes team entrepreneurial cognition, entrepreneurial recourse integration, entrepreneurial network embedded and cluster entrepreneurial context. And, we also refine sixteen sub-categories. Then, we analysis further the influencing mechanism of four fundamental categories. It enriches company entrepreneurship theory, and provides practical guidance for entrepreneurial behavior of university spin-offs.
The paper takes Sony’s technological alliance networks from 1995 to 2011 as the case, investigating the fit between different types of alliance networks and knowledge management motives. Firstly, based on the characteristics and types of social network, the paper develops four hypotheses respectively regarding the fit between weak ties, strong ties, standard alliance networks and knowledge acquisition, explorative knowledge sharing, exploitative knowledge sharing and knowledge commercialization. Then the paper analyzes that licensing, equity joint ventures, collaborative agreements, and standard alliance networks are associated with different knowledge management motives. Finally, the paper concludes with managerial implications on importance of the role of organizational boundary spanners, improving the fit between alliance networks and knowledge management motives, and enhancing the alliance network management capabilities.
In the context of channel cooperation, this study examines the impact of interfirm social capital on knowledge acquisition from distributors, as well as the moderating effects of contract and environmental uncertainty. Using survey data from 196 manufacturers, our empirical results indicate that structural capital facilitates knowledge acquisition only when relational capital is accumulated or formal contract is used. The positive effect of relational capital on knowledge acquisition is stronger in the case of strong structural capital or high environment uncertainty.
By discussing the differences in long-term resource allocation among firms in developing countries, this research aims to disclose the conditions for the emergence and development of innovative firms. Cognition and resource allocation are taken as core objects to study. The propensities of long-term decision-making in different firms are compared by exploring the cognitive backgrounds of their decision-makers and the evolutions of institutions that they are circumstanced. A primary discussion about the Chinese innovative firms is conducted through a case study of representative firms in the car and telecom-equipment industries.
We contribute to the literature by demonstrating the effects of relational resources on radical innovation under varying internal resource conditions. Portfolio resources contribute to innovation success, and technologically capable firms have the ability to gain more such resources, firms’ “competency traps” and the tension between value creation and value protection reduce benefits from portfolio resources for such firms. Then this paper from cognitive factors, organization factors and behavioral factors to analysis the causes of paradox. This article through to xi’an high-tech 76 medicine enterprise investigation and study, regression analysis thinks, the enterprise through its Resource-Integrating Ability (that is, integration cognitive factors, organization factors and behavioral factors), can effective use of enterprise resources, improve the technology heterogeneity and technical strengths of the influence of the radical innovation, solve the enterprise development core ability of the paradox, and strengthen the mutation innovation production.
Radical innovation is very important for firm to leap development, and basic research can accumulate innovation capacity for firm’s radical innovation. But the basic research in Chinese firms is insufficient, which lead to the poor radical innovation capacity of firm. To encourage firm paying more attention to basic research, it should change the old idea that basic research can only do in public research organization, reform the management mechanism of S&T program, build national key lab in firm, and play the roles of finance and tax policy, to support firm strength basic research.
In order to accelerate the pace of innovation, more and more firms are getting the technologies needed from technology market though inbound open innovation. However, it cannot be avoided that how to make a decision between internal exploitation and external introduction of technology.
Based on traditional T-plan method, the method of market pull roadmapping for inbound open innovation (MPRIOI) is proposed though introducing technology roadmapping (TRM) into inbound open innovation. Finally, an example of MPRIOI method is shown in this paper. The method may help firms find the best way of developing innovative strategies in both product and technology market, and provide an effective tool for firms to implement inbound open innovation.
