Influence of Network Density and Technology Alliance on for Intercity Environmental Joint Governance Enterprise Green Innovation
Urban agglomerations,as the clusters of green innovation subjects in China,are an important driving force for the high-quality development of green economy in the country.Enterprises,as important green inno-vation subjects,are the key to the green development of urban agglomerations.This paper takes 676 enterprises in heavily polluting industries in 5 national and 5 regional urban agglomerations from 2009 to 2018 as samples,and uses social network analysis to study the impact mechanism of intercity environmental collaborative govern-ance network density on enterprise green innovation.The study finds that the density of intercity environmental collaborative governance has a significant positive impact on corporate green innovation while technology alli-ances are intermediary variables that affect the intercity environmental collaborative governance network density on corporate green innovation,and they are regulated by the economic level of urban agglomerations.
