“…Furthermore, in 1996, the Act Encouraging Corporatization of Scientific and Technical Research and Inventions was adopted. These strategies have placed a strong emphasis on commercializing academic results and building industry sectors' capability for R&D and innovation (Yao et al, 2021). Wang and Wu (2015) examined the impact of firm and government R&D spending on China's economic development in different research.…”

Purpose – the main goal of the paper is to examine the role of macroeconomic factors in promoting the technological development of upper-middle-income countries. Research methodology – to carry on with the investigation the paper selected the expenditure in research and development as a proxy for technological advancement while GDP per capita, Final consumption expenditure, Domestic credit to the private sector, national income, and government transparency are selected as proxies for the macroeconomic indicators. Moreover, a VECM approach is performed in order to capture the long-run and short-run relationship among the variables. Additionally, a Granger causality test was used to observe the causality direction among the variables. Findings – the obtained results revealed that in the short run, all the selected variables have no prominent impact on R&D expenditure. However, the long run result, presented that the transparency situation of upper-middle-income countries, simultaneously the governments’ final consumption, the amount of credit provided to the private sector, and national income are unfavorably affecting technological development while the GDP is positively affecting the expenditure in R&D. Research limitations – the exclusive focus on macroeconomic factors and upper-middle-income countries as well as the fact of excluding the role of micro factors and low-income countries are the major limitation of the study. Practical implications – policymakers and nations looking to accomplish technological transformation in the age of digitization can benefit from the study’s findings. Originality/Value – since prior studies highlighted the link of macroeconomic factors with specific sectors such as healthcare, education, and agriculture. Thus, giving little attention to or neglecting the information technology sector that compromises a more specific branch such as research and development. For that reason, this paper will bring light to this phenomenon.

R&D, which is one of the main determinants of technological development, has a critical role in determining the development differences between countries. The fact that developing countries as well as developed countries start to allocate more funds to R&D expenditures causes the literature on this subject to remain up-to-date. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between R&D expenditures and growth in the period of 2000-2018 in Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and Turkiye (BRICS-T). In this context, Dumitrescu-Hurlin’s (2012) causality test, Impulse-Response and Variance Decomposition analyzes are used together with the panel VAR approach. According to Dumitrescu-Hurlin (2012) causality test, there is a bidirectional causality relationship between R&D expenditures and growth in BRICS-T countries.

“…In this context, China has not only continued to increase investments in green technology R&D. At the same time, it actively accelerates IURC to promote the sustainable development of its manufacturing industry. The Chinese government has not only formulated a series of laws and regulations to promote IURC, but also strengthened its support for IURC in terms of resources and technology (Yao et al, 2021). However, there is still a lack of research on whether these efforts have contributed to the EE of China's HTM.…”

As one of the important strategic measures to increase the international competitiveness of high-tech manufacturing (HTM), industry-university-research cooperation (IURC) has received increasing attention in China. However, there is little literature to explore the links between IURC and the environmental efficiency (EE) of HTM. To incorporate a variety of environmental pollution indicators into the efficiency analysis framework and reduce the adverse effects of random errors on the estimation results, this article combined the projection pursuit model with the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) method and proposed a translog stochastic frontier model considering undesirable outputs to analyze the multiple impacts of IURC on the EE of HTM. The results show that IURC has both a significant negative direct effect and a significant positive indirect effect on HTM’s EE. Although IURC cannot directly promote EE, it has a positive impact on EE of HTM through its complementary effect with research and development (R&D) investment. The results also confirm that the average EE of the whole country is only 0.346, while that of the eastern area is 0.595, and that of the central and western areas are 0.199 and 0.171, respectively. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to improve the EE of China’s HTM industry through a variety of measures, such as promoting IURC and increasing R&D investment in environmental technology. This study not only provides an improved SFA method for measuring EE, but also deepens research on the mechanism of the impact of IURC on HTM’s EE.
