I will give you my own summary for your reference. If you want more, you'd better read physical books or search papers on China Wang Zhi, and pay attention to your changes. .
As far as industrial clusters are concerned, technological innovation of regional production can be realized. Innovation is the most fundamental internal driving force of regional development, and technological innovation can bring great advantages to the product cost and competitiveness of enterprises, which is of great help to the promotion of regional competitiveness. The innovation ability of industrial clusters can be divided into three aspects. [ 1]
1. Innovative conditions for division of labor and cooperation: In industrial clusters, the division of labor is clear, each part of a product is processed by multiple enterprises, and the processing technology is more professional, which is conducive to improving the technical level and innovation ability. This kind of division of labor and cooperation forces enterprises engaged in parts processing to do everything possible to improve their technical level and carry out technological innovation through market selection. Therefore, industrial agglomeration is the catalyst for the birth of new technologies.
2. Knowledge spillover effect: due to the complexity of innovation activities, it is difficult for enterprises to carry out innovation activities alone, and it often requires the participation of many related enterprises and scientific research departments to succeed in innovation, and the network characteristics of industrial clusters precisely reflect this. The close network relationship between enterprises makes it easier for production enterprises and related institutions to form a whole of mutual learning, which promotes the process of collective learning, reduces the learning cost, increases the ways of knowledge dissemination, enables knowledge to spread at a high speed within the group and promotes more innovative activities.
3. Catch-up effect: The geographical proximity of enterprises promotes mutual understanding and strengthens mutual influence. At the same time, because competitors are engaged in the same industry in the same environment and are in the psychology of keeping up with the joneses, the competition among enterprises will intensify. Backward enterprises are more likely to imitate advanced enterprises, and advanced enterprises will work harder to innovate in order to maintain their competitive advantage. In this way, due to the existence of competitive pressure, there will be an incentive effect of enterprise innovation, which will enable enterprises to improve product quality or enhance differentiated advantages.
