Abstract

This article uses the latest enterprise data by registration to study the impact of ownership on the innovation performance of China's large- and medium-sized industrial enterprises. Using a panel analysis from 2000 to 2004, it is found that there are significant differences in performance and innovation among SOEs, collectives, domestic private enterprises, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan-funded firms and foreign-invested firms. The presence of FDI does seem to be important in improving domestic enterprises' performance and innovation in terms of sales revenue per employee, share of new product value to gross output value and share of patent applications and invention patent applications.
