Abstract
Science and technology innovation policies have been considered as effective policy tools in promoting regional innovation. This paper used content analysis method to analyze 321 pieces of science and technology policies published from 2006 to 2018. Structures of the policy social networks had been analyzed and discussed, and the main points and emphasis of the science and technology policy system of China’s Yangtze River Delta region had been revealed. Results indicated that Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui’s science and technology policy system structures were relatively consistent, while the development paths were different, and the content of industrial policy of four provinces had a serious homogenization problem.
Highlights
In recent years, studies in policy coordination have increased gradually

Zhang Wei (2016) believed that regional science and technology policy coordination referred to the process of achieving coordination in different types of science and technology policies issued by different policy-making body in the region [5]
Summary
Studies in policy coordination have increased gradually. More and more researchers realized the importance of synergy in policy-making. Lengrand (2003) proposed that science and technology innovation policies are located in the center of government policy, and synergy between innovation policies is very important [1]. Meijers and Stead (2004) argued that policy synergy referred to the management of cross-border issues when formulating policies. Such issues exceeded the responsibilities and authority of individual government or individual government functions and required multiple government functions to work together [2]. Zhang Wei (2016) believed that regional science and technology policy coordination referred to the process of achieving coordination in different types of science and technology policies issued by different policy-making body in the region [5].
