Abstract

The paper builds a theoretic innovative model of national high-tech zones according to the characteristics of regional innovation system. Based on the regional panel data of 56 national high-tech zones in 2011, the author analyses their innovation abilities through the way of principal component analysis. The results show that the innovation ability of the national high-tech zone is mainly embodied in the three principal component factors and the input of scientific and technical personnel and funds, technology innovation activities, innovation efficiency. Besides, the innovation ability of utility value, which are the three principal component factors of 56 national high-tech zones possess, is not consistent. In addition, the input of scientific and technical personnel and funds is closely related to innovation ability of high-tech zones. Lastly, the innovation ability of the national high-tech zones still has a “high in the East, medium in the Middle Part, low in the West” pattern.
