"Without innovation, without process." Innovation, to some extent, is an everlasting topic. Under the circumstances of economic globalization, the important discoveries, inventions and their extensive use widely spreading out in science and technology,which are brought about by new technological revolution, profoundly changed the worldwide productivity, the mode of production and lifestyle. The accumulation of knowledge, as well as innovation, has become the key elements of increasing the national wealth and improving the people's lives. Currently, competition in overall national strength has been concentrated on innovation. All the countries, especially developed countries have taken scientific and technological progress and innovation as a national strategy which insist on taking scientific and technological innovation as the basis of development and relying on the ability of innovation to keep the competitive strength. Under the environment of fierce competition of international economy and technology, the CPC Central Committee and State Council made the biggest strategic decisions of "increasing capability of independent innovation, building an innovative country and a road of independent innovation with Chinese characteristics," The goal is to enhance the capability of independent innovation, to promote science and technology by leaps and bounds, speed up industrial restructuring and the change of economic growth pattern, and to realize the Coordinate Sustainable Development of the society.Working as the backbone of Chinese enterprises and innovation entity as well, tech-companies take the burden of upgrading the country's independent innovation capability. The upgrading of their independent innovation capability concerns with the growth rate of the national economy and people's living standards. Therefore, it is the only way, for those tech-companies, to effectively stimulate their independent innovation vitality, fully play the role of independent innovation, which is the basis of constructing an innovative country. But from the data collection and analysis, the current study of Chinese and foreign scholars concentrate on national or local independent-innovation system, and less study on the independent innovation capacity of tech-companies. Consequently, how to enhance tech-companies'independent innovation ability, and to enable companies to obtain sustainable competitive advantage, is really an issue deserving our attention. This paper takes advantage of criterion and demonstration, being equipped with quality-quantity analysis method to analyze the tech-companies independent innovation capacity. On the whole, this paper is composed by the following four parts.The first part concerns with the integrated analysis of our tech-companies'independent innovation. In this part, it summarizes its advantages and disadvantages of our country's independent innovation, and analyzes the elements restricting it as well. The advantages of our country's independent innovation exhibits as following: developing fast, rising in the number of tech- companies, increasing in the income from innovating products, investing in research and development, mounting up in the number of tech-staff, being conspicuous in tech-achievements. Then, this paper gives priority to independent innovation and analyzes the disadvantages of independent innovation according to its three segments. From the perspective of research and experiment, its disadvantages lie in the weakness in awareness of independent innovation, shortage of investment, being weak in basic research, lack of research staff and morbidity in innovating system. As for the project developing, its disadvantages lie in the technician's low quality, manufacturing facility's draggling, and deficiency in utilizing manufacturing technology. As far as commercializing is concerned, its disadvantage is scientific and technical products'shortage, less contribution to GDP and weakness in key competition. All of those disadvantages restrict the scientific and tech-companies'development. Consequently, this paper summarizes the internal and external elements restricting scientific and tech-companies'development, that is entrepreneurship, intelligence capital, resource integration, innovating circumstance, relative network and industrial committee. The shortage of entrepreneurship in scientific and tech-companies will have an effect on innovating drive; the shortage of accumulation in intelligence capital will influence innovating basis; the shortage of valid resource integration will affect innovating conditions; the shortage of harmonious innovating circumstance will result in innovating guarantee; the shortage of wholesome relative network and industrial committee will have an effect on the external support. All of those elements will restrict sustainable development of scientific and tech-companies seriously, the transformation from world factory to innovating country.The second part puts forward the mechanism and theoretical hypothesis of tech- companies'improvement of independent innovation capacity. Based on the analysis of related theory, we define the following restricting elements such as entrepreneurship, intelligence capital, resource integration, innovation circumstance, related network and industrial committee as independent variables, then we define independent innovation capacity as researching and developing capacity, producing capacity and marketing capacity, which compose the dependent variables, therefore we put forward the mechanism of tech- companies'independent innovation capacity. This paper composes a theoretical hypothesis to mechanism from the qualitative perspective, illustrating the generating procedure of scientific and tech-companies'independent innovation.The third part testifies this model by making the use of structural equation. Firstly, we put forward parable measurement indexes of the three dependent variables and six independent variables, then we design the questionnaire and modify it by interviewing further and pre-investigation, based on which an investigation in a large scale is carried out and 258 valid questionnaires are called back; in addition, On the foundation of analysis of data validity, reliability and relativity, the original structural equation model is set up. With the further modification, a valuable researching conclusion is obtained (see chart 6.2). Finally, the influence of the six restrictive factors mentioned above on independent innovation capacity is analyzed further by making use of regress analysis method, finding that entrepreneurial spirit and intellectual capital influence the enterprise independent innovation capacity at most. Consequently, the key point to promote enterprise independent innovation capacity is to stimulate human's creativity, advance human's all-around development, which is the pre-condition for the tech-companies with developing vigor.The fourth part brings forward five steps for the promotion of enterprise independent innovation capacity. The first step is about the strategic option in promoting enterprise independent innovation capacity. That is, to insist on people-oriented human resource development strategy, the development strategy of enterprise as the main innovative principle part, the development strategy of the priority of science and technology, the Intellectual property protection of cooperative creation, the development strategy of advantages emphasized breakthrough, the different strategy according to different developing stages and the strategy of intellectual property protection; The second step is to put forward fundamental measures aiming at promoting enterprise independent innovation capacity. That is, to cultivate the entrepreneurial spirit, exerting the positive effects of the entrepreneurial spirit; insist on the accumulation of intellectual capital, exerting the positive effects of intellectual capital; insist on the continuous resource integration, exerting the positive effects of resource integration; to build a harmonious innovation atmosphere, exerting the positive effects of innovation atmosphere; to build a well-developed relation network, exerting the positive effects of relation network; to promote the development of industry association, exerting the positive effects of industry association. The third step is to promote tech-companies'independent research and development ability. That is, to program independent research and development scientifically; choose a good research and development direction cautiously; set a goal for independent research and development reasonably; to choose an approach for independent research and development scientifically; to compose multi-level independent research and development system and enhance its organization and execution as well. The forth step is to promote tech-companies'manufacturing ability. That is, to adopt a flexible manufacturing technique, emphasizing the improvement of producing craft, optimizing the workers'organization, being strict with the quality checking, perfecting the quality management system; The fifth step is to promote tech-companies'marketing ability. That is to implement brand marketing to promote the values of products, implementing 4PS marketing to promote marketing ability, insisting on innovative marketing to promote continuous marketing ability. Through the above five steps, it can help tech- companies improve their independent innovative capacity from every aspect and every link, and therefore realizes great-leap-forward development.To sum up, the contribution of this paper lies in complementing and enriching the present independent innovation research contents, and bringing a lot of enlightenment on how to carry out tech-companies independent innovation, providing more valuable reference as well as theoretical grounds for making relative decision from the layer of policy.
