Research About The Effects Of Exporting On Firm’s Innovation From The Perspective Of Firm Heterogeneity

In recent years,with the rapid development of country’s economy,The hiding problems are also growing.The economic growth is facing continuous downward pressure,The extensive growth pattern which focuses on the quantity increasing should be upgraded urgently,improving the innovative capacity is the key point to upgrade the growth pattern.It is a hot topic to study how to improve the ability of innovation and maintain sustain economic growth.In the perspective of international trade,there are a lot of research about the relationship between trade and innovation,most of the research study the issue from macroscopic perspective.With the emergence of the heterogeneous firm trade theory,many scholars begin to study the relationship between international trade and innovation from microscopic perspective.Combined with the latest study,this paper will discuss the effects of exporting on firm’s innovation from microscopic perspective.This paper takes enterprises as the research object,combining theoretical and empirical analysis methods and try to discuss the following issues: Whether firm’s exporting will promote innovation? What’s the effect of firm’s heterogeneity on innovation? This paper first summarize the achievement on the basis of relevant research,and then analyze the influence mechanism of exporting on innovation.Secondly,make descriptive analysis of exporting and innovation from microscopic and macroscopic perspective.Then put firm heterogeneity into analytical framework,use probit model to analyze the effects of exporting and firm heterogeneity on firm’s innovation.The main conclusions of this paper are as following : compared with non-exporting firms,export firms are more likely to innovate,export has significantly positive incentive effect on firm’s innovation decision;Good financing conditions have significantly positive effect on firms’ innovation,good financial environment is helpful for firms to conducive innovative activities;TFP also has significantly positive effect on firm’s innovation,in other words,the self-selection effect of firms’ innovation is obvious;Firm’s scale and innovation show significant and stable U-shaped relationship whether is under the overall sample or the sub-sample which only has private enterprises.Human capital,R&D investment and the profits of the enterprise all have positive impact on firm’s innovation,human capital accumulation and good operation of the company are the important foundation for firm’s innovation.Finally,according to the conclusions of this paper,put forward some relevant policy recommendations.
