The Possibility of China’s Industrial Park Management Committee to Promote Interenterprise Cooperative Innovation in the Park: A Trilateral Evolutionary Game Perspective

Abstract

Under China’s distinct policy-driven agglomeration approach, the Chinese industrial park displays a low degree of industrial relevance and weak cooperation among enterprises in the park. The key to solving this problem lies in the guiding role of the park management committee. Accordingly, this study constructs a trilateral evolutionary game model of interenterprise cooperative innovation inside the industrial park under the supervision of the park management committee, leadership of the core enterprises, and with the participation of the small- and medium-sized enterprises. Through simulation analysis, this study explores the influencing factors behind the trilateral cooperative innovation strategy choices. Results show that (1) the park management committee, core enterprises, and small- and medium-sized enterprises have different degrees of influence on each other’s willingness to participate in cooperative innovation; (2) small- and medium-sized enterprises are sensitive to the management committee’s policy support, and core enterprises are sensitive to the management committee’s financial support; (3) core enterprises are more sensitive to penalties and income distribution than small- and medium-sized enterprises; (4) the degree of resource complementarity and trust among enterprises has a profound effect on core enterprises and small- and medium-sized enterprises’ willingness to participate in cooperative innovation.

Evaluation of the industrial cooperation of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area: Based on the Origin-Destination pairs of industrial parks and coupling model efficiency

“…Ottati [ 72 ] conducted the first study on the cooperation of industries within industrial clusters, suggesting that cooperation between industries can increase opportunities for large-scale activities among enterprises within industrial zones. Decision makers are inclined to establish industrial parks to provide a conducive environment for enterprise operations, leveraging the advantages of specialized labor markets, interrelated enterprises, and knowledge spillover effects [ 73 ]. Industrial parks, with their rapid growth worldwide, are often considered a driving force for regional development [ 24 – 26 ] and create specialized labor markets that support the production and operation of similar enterprises, leading to the agglomeration of similar businesses and the formation of connections between upstream and downstream enterprises, resulting in economies of scale [ 27 ].…”

Evolutionary Game of Value Synergy in Industrial Chain: In the Context of “Chain Chief System”

“…Market size and technology difusion difculty are other critical variables that are often included in the model [50,51]. Some scholars have approached the study of, low-carbon industry [52], industrial parks [53], and platform economies [54] from an evolutionary game perspective. Tey have investigated the upstream and downstream cooperation patterns, industrial policies, and the resulting synergistic efects of industrial chains.…”

Game modelling and stability strategy research on distributed leadership pattern: A tripartite evolutionary game perspective

“…Since the principle of EGT considers the strategy payoffs of both the player and the others, introducing EGT is a better understanding of the cost and benefit of the decision when facing the challenges of a complex and uncertain environment [24][25][26][27]. Evolutionary games can be used flexibly in twoplayer [28][29][30], three-player [31][32][33], or multi-player games [20][21][22][23]34].…”
