Research on the Multiple Paths and Heterogeneity of Collaborative Innovation Driving the Efficiency Improvement of Technological Achievements Transformation
Transformation of scientific and technological achievements is an important task of implementing the innovation-driven devel-opment strategy,and collaborative innovation is a key measure to improve the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological a-chievements.The theoretical framework of the impact of collaborative innovation on the transformation efficiency of scientific and techno-logical achievements is constructed from the four levels of input,output,environment and interaction.Taking 30 provinces in China as samples,the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA)is used to explore the multiple realization paths and regional heterogene-ity of the efficiency improvement of the transformation of scientific and technological achievements driven by collaborative innovation.The results show that:①A single collaborative innovation element does not constitute the necessary conditions for high transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements,but the intensity of scientific research incentives as the core ele-ment has a universal effect on improving the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements;②There are three types of collaborative innovation-driven configurations to improve the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achieve-ments,which can be summarized into two realization paths,namely,scientific research environment-driven and incentive-type under the guarantee of scientific research funds,with the former containing the most cases;③Non-high transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements is not the opposite of high transformation efficiency,and poor scientific research quality is an important factor for non-high transformation efficiency;④Heterogeneity analysis shows that the scientific research environment,scientific research output,and scientific research quality have a key role in improving the transformation efficiency of scientific and technological achievements in the eastern,central,and western regions of China,respectively,while the lack of scientific research investment and scientific research quality has a general adverse impact.
