Innovation theory has always been focusing on enterprise hierarchy, but enterprise innovation will be upgraded to industrial hierarchy in the end, accordingly, the policy of innovation impelled ought to be focused on industry. In modern economy with the inter-firm division mechanism deepening, each independent innovation is likely to induce interrelated enterprises to innovate collectively and advance synchronously. It is significant to understand innovation from the point of view of the whole industry. It is a new view of understanding innovation and establishing innovation policy. One important task of the dissertation is making an industrial innovation analysis of innovational mechanism, enriching innovation theory. Learning plays an important role during the course of impelling interrelated enterprises to innovate collectively. It is hold that learning arises not only from firm's self-exploring, but also from inter-firm interaction. Learning mechanism transforms diversely activities of firm innovation into industrial innovation. Industrial innovation ought to attach importance to inter-firm interaction and mutual learning. The dissertation is related to theories, such as economics of industry, economics of innovation, economics of evolutionary and economics of technology. The method is mainly related to induction analyses with deduction analyses, as well as learning model. The mechanism of dynamics compels firms to innovate persistently. Successful innovation will be prevalent among firms through the mechanism of diffusion, and the dominant design of new technology will be discriminated by the mechanism of selection. All of them are based on inter-firm mutual learning and intercommunion. Learning mechanism is considered of the fundamental mechanism of industrial innovation. The dissertation mainly researches the intra-mechanism of industrial innovation from the point of view of firm learning as well as their interaction, based on the theory of firm learning, trying to make a relation between firm learning activities and theory of innovation, generalizing the theory of firm innovation to the research of industrial innovation, preliminarily establishing the theoretical frame of industrial innovation, offering theoretical evidence to the performing policy of independent innovation.
