Abstract
The innovation capability of a region has a close relationship with its economic development, household consumption, and education background. It can be seen from Table 4.1 and Fig, 4.1 that, according to both per capita GDP and household consumption data which may reflect the economic development level and the population education background which reflect the education level, regions with leading innovation capability are generally better than lagging ones. These factors sometimes even play a greater role in improving regional innovation capability than science and technology input.
