Research on the Influencing Factors of Collaborative Innovation of Science and Technology in the Pearl River Delta Urban Agglomeration

Abstract

This paper has measured the level of collaborative innovation of science and technology in the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration from 2010 to 2018 by using the DEA-Malmquist index model. The empirical results show that the overall level of technological collaboration and innovation in the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration is relatively high. The pure technical efficiency value of the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration has hit its peak. In terms of its scale efficiency, that of Zhuhai and Jiangmen still has room for improvement, while that of other cities has reached the optimal level. Then, through the establishment of a panel data model of the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration from 2009 to 2018, the influencing factors of technology collaborative innovation in the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration was analyzed. Finally, this proposal was made.
