“…Since 2006, when the Chinese government began to adopt strategic policies, by encouraging innovation-driven development, it began driving significant social and economic development by focusing on industries such that they could develop rapidly through extraordinary innovation [19,20]. Government funding and tax incentives played, and continue to play, an important role in promoting green technology innovation.…”

The purpose of the “Made in China 2025” strategy is to enhance the innovation capabilities of the local manufacturing industry and achieve green and sustainable development. The role of innovation in the development of manufacturing is a hotspot in academic research, though only a few studies have analyzed the interaction between green technology manufacturing efficiency and its external innovation capabilities. This study used the 2011–2017 Chinese A-share listed manufacturing companies as samples to discuss whether regional innovation capabilities can promote the improvement of green technology manufacturing efficiency. The results showed that a significant spatial correlation between regional innovation capability and green technology manufacturing efficiency was prevalent within spatial heterogeneous bounds. In addition, regional innovation capability directly promoted the effective manufacturing of green technology efficiency, which was strongest in the eastern region of the country. Regional innovation capabilities also had a positive effect on human capital and government revenue, thereby further enhancing the green technology efficiency of manufacturing through the intermediary effect. Based on the above conclusions, some policy recommendations are put forward to facilitate the improvement of China’s regional innovation capabilities in terms of green technology efficiency in manufacturing.

“…Several authors see its main message being withdrawal from international technology sourcing, developing the ability to rely on national sources of technology and emphasizing Chinese techno-nationalism (Li-Ying & Wang, 2015;Liu & Lundin, 2009;Tang & Hussler, 2011). Others view the concept mainly as a call to change the entire economy's focus from being manufacturing-centered to innovation-centered (Gu, Schwaag Serger, & Lundvall, 2016;Liu et al, 2017;Vinig & Bossink, 2015). The first view suggests that innovation processes should be organized in a closed way by involving few well-trusted domestic actors, whereas the second view suggests that innovation processes should be more open and involve selected international partners.…”

China's government aims to become an innovation nation and promotes the development of so‐called indigenous innovation. Under this paradigm of state‐encouraged innovation, however, it is unclear how domestic firms organize their innovation processes. We distinguish between two strategies in that respect: closed versus open innovation. Our findings suggest that firms with closed innovation processes collaborate in close geographic distance, rely on DUI‐modes of learning, and collaborations are based on guanxi. In contrast, firms with open innovation processes collaborate over large distances and rely on STI‐modes of learning that are not necessarily guanxi‐based. The findings help to understand the heterogeneous nature of indigenous innovation in China.

“…Recent scholarly work also highlights the potential of internationally organized and dispersed innovation. Indeed, the current stage of globalization involves new forms of global organized innovation networks (Ernst 2002;Barnard and Chaminade 2017;Gu et al 2016).…”
