The Impact Of Technological Potential Difference On Industry-university Collaborative Innovation Performance

Industry-university collaborative innovation is constrained by many factors,which causes a large gap between its actual effects and expected results.One of the main reasons is that the cooperation partners of Industry-university collaborative innovation do not recognize the important factors that will hinder the efficiency of their cooperation.Since the proximity perspective has been incorporated into the research framework of Industry-university collaborative innovation,the technological potential difference has begun to attract the attention of scholars.The current scholars have not reached a consensus on the relationship between the technological potential difference and the Industry-university collaborative innovation performance.The internal influence mechanism still has a “black box”.At the same time,relevant research lacks more empirical tests,especially from Chinses Empirical research of data.In addition,most scholars at home and abroad discussed the influence of the “quantity” of the Industry-university collaborative innovation performance,and neglected the discussion of “quality”.Therefore,this article explores the influence of the technological potential difference on the Industry-university collaborative innovation performance from two levels: "quantity" and "quality".Specifically,on the basis of theoretical research and literature research,this paper explores the path of the effect of the technological potential difference on the Industry-university collaborative innovation performance,and puts forward the research hypothesis.Then,from the Derwent World Patent Index,we select 1966 patent data from China's Industry-university collaborative innovation as the research sample,and constructs the research variables,and used the negative binomial model to verify the influence of technological potential difference on the Industry-university collaborative innovation performance from the two levels of "quantity" and "quality ",and carries out classification test at the same time.The results of the study show that:(1)On the whole,in the "quantity" level,the technological potential difference has a inverted "U" effect on the China's Industry-university collaborative innovation performance;in the "quality" level,there is a positive correlation effect.(2)Based on the geographical proximity group test,it is found that in the "quantity" level,the results of regression are consistent,both show the inverted "U" effect,and the geographical position of the cooperative subject is more stronger than the inverted "U" effect in the same province,but in the "qualitative" level,the former showed positive correlation effect,and the latter was not significant.(3)Based on the findings of the previous cooperative group test,the regression results are consistent in the "quant ity" level,and all of them show an inverted "U" effect,and the cooperation subject has earlier cooperation experience than the inverted "U" effect of no previous cooperation experience;but in the "qualitative" level,the former showed positive correlation effect,and the latter was not significant.(4)based on the group test in the field of technology,it is found that in the "quantity" level,the regression results are consistent,both show the inverted "U" effect,and the cooperation belongs to the science based technology field more than the inverted "U" effect in the technical field of technology,but at the "qualitative" level,the latter showed positive correlation effect,and the former related effect was not.Significant.Finally,according to the research conclusions,this paper provides the corresponding policy suggestions for the enterprise to choose partners rationally and to improve the cooperative innovation performance of "quantity" and "quality".
