Research on the Impact of Government R&D Subsidies on the Complexity of Export Technologies
The sustained multiple external pressures,such as the slow global economic recovery and the increasing threat of industrial decoupling from European and American countries towards China,may lead to a shift in the driving force that affects the complexity of China's exports from external driving to internal driving.The article examines the impact and related mechanisms of government R&D subsidies on the complexity of China's export technology from the perspective of technological innovation.The research results show that there is a significant inverted U-shaped non-linear relationship between government R&D subsidies and export technology complexity.As government R&D subsidies continue to be invested,export technology complexity will show a trend of first increasing and then decreasing;Financial R&D subsidies affect the complexity of export technology through the mediating effect of technological innovation.In addition,research at the enterprise level shows that there is significant heterogeneity in the impact of government R&D subsidies on private and state-owned enterprises.Compared to state-owned enterprises,government R&D subsidies have a more significant incentive effect on private enterprises and a more significant effect on enhancing the complexity of China's export technology.
