Abstract

As an important subject of the regional innovation system, the scientific research activities of universities are not only the power source of talent cultivation and knowledge innovation but also an important force to promote regional innovation development. This paper examines the influence relationship between knowledge spillover from universities in Sichuan province and Chongqing city and regional innovation capacity from the aspects of teaching and research personnel input, research and development personnel input in research input, monographs, academic papers, technology transfer contracts and transfer income in research output. The results show that the improvement of the innovation capacity in Sichuan province and Chongqing city depends on the increase of teaching and research personnel input and the number of scientific and technological topics in universities, while other indirect scientific research results do not contribute significantly to the regional innovation capacity; further mechanism analysis reveals that the knowledge spillover from universities mainly promotes the improvement of regional innovation capacity through human capital, physical capital, and scientific and technological innovation.
