“…At present, scholars mostly use a single index to evaluate regional innovation (such as the number of patent applications), but do not evaluate the regional capability of prefecture-level cities from a comprehensive perspective. This paper refers to scholars [2][26][12] [3] constructed the index of provincial regional innovation capability and weighed the availability and integrity of prefecture-level cities' data, and measured the regional innovation capability of prefecture-level cities from three dimensions of resource capability, environmental capability and technological capability (see Table 1).…”

Under the background of accelerating scientific and technological progress and continuous expansion of technology scale in China, the policy of national independent innovation demonstration zones has been continuously deepened and improved, which promotes the development, transformation and upgrading of innovative economy in China and provides important support for the construction of regional innovation system. Based on the panel data of 285 cities in China from 2003 to 2020, this paper uses the difference in differences (DID) method to explore the impact of the national innovation Demonstration zone policy on regional innovation Capability, and to analyze and test the mechanism of diversified agglomeration and specialized agglomeration of hightech service industries in the relationship between the two. Further, this paper tests the heterogeneity of policy effect in regions and policy layout; The spatial econometric method is introduced to consider the spatial spillover effect, and the spatial Durbin model is used to further explore the impact of the policy of the national Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone on regional innovation. The empirical results show that the establishment of the national Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone can promote regional innovation capability; The agglomeration of high-tech service industry plays a mediating role in the relationship between the two. The impact of the policy on innovation in the western region is much stronger than that in the eastern and central regions. Through the comparison of policy pattern, the policy effect of the single-city layout is much higher than that of the multi-city layout; There are significant negative externalities in the impact of the national independent innovation demonstration zone policy on regional innovation capability.

“…Within a couple of decades after Lee’s graduation, by the mid-1900s, the number of women engineers in China had reached many hundreds. According to Cheng (2014):in Anshan, which was China’s leading steel center, more than 600 women engineers, designers and technicians --- all post-1949 graduates --- were working in metallurgical, steel-rolling, power-generating, machine-building, and mining departments. Substantial numbers of women engineers and technicians also worked in the railroad system.…”

The importance of role models in inspiring and influencing the career paths of young people cannot be overstated, particularly in the fields where certain population segments are under-represented. However, when there are no role models, a few exceptional people become pioneers; these are people who carve out their own paths. Most research in early history of women in engineering focuses on the Western world, with relatively little information from the other parts of the globe. This paper presents the stories of a few Asian women who went against the odds, against social norms and expectations, without role models, and ventured into the field of engineering.

“…Liu, 2002), as well as no significant effect (J. Chen, Chen, & Yu, 2007). The significant negative impact of FDI on patenting implies FDI brings pressure to bear on domestic organisations and the competitiveness of Foreign Invested Enterprise 13 may crowd low capacity organisations out of the market (Fu & Gong, 2011;Zhang & Rogers, 2009), as the loss of market share may lower the incentives of domestic organisations to innovate (Jiang & Xia, 2005).…”

Our study aims to examine the drivers of China’s regional innovation capacity (RIC). Drawing from innovation system literatures, our study proposes that RIC can be determined by (a) innovation actors (higher education institutions, enterprises, and public research institutes); (b) innovation inputs (financial capital and human resource), and (c) international interactions. The main finding was the significant impact of higher education institutions demonstrating higher education institutions are crucial innovation actors. The interaction effect also found between foreign direct investment (FDI) and Science and Technology (S&T) investment suggests governments should pay more attention to the indirect impact of drivers in building RIC in China.
