Creating an Evaluation Model of Services Innovation Factors of the Knowledge Hub: Using Hsinchu Science Park and Silicon Valley Case Studies

Abstract

The result shows that innovation performance is the most important domain factor for service innovation of KH by AHP and FAHP method. Consequently, KH becomes a cost effective and intermediary platform for academicians and entrepreneurs in implementation service innovation system. When the new science park on adopting and implementation service innovation it be focus on absorptive capacity and learning environment to maintain regional development in the long-term. The main contribution of this research is an empirical investigation of key factors of service innovation of KH and comparing Silicon Valley of United states and Hsinchu Science Park of Taiwan two sites difference.
