“…Comprehensive consideration of both aspects is necessary to enhance the competitive edge of export products. With technological innovation, the competitive advantage of the product itself is significantly highlighted by substantially reducing production costs [34,35]. Technological innovation enables enterprises to autonomously analyze, develop, and process products, thus independently determining product quality and aiding in its enhancement [36][37][38].…”

This study investigates the pivotal role of technological innovation in enhancing the export competitiveness of high-tech products in China, analyzing its interplay with industrial upgrading. Theoretically, it contributes to the understanding of how technological innovation affects high-tech product markets, offering a novel product-centric perspective distinct from traditional industry-focused views. Set against China’s shift toward a dual circulation development paradigm, the research utilizes a panel regression model to analyze data from 30 Chinese provinces, cities, and autonomous regions from 2011 to 2021. The findings underscore the significant positive impact of technological innovation on export competitiveness, with variances noted across Eastern, Central, and Western regions. The study reveals that technological innovation primarily influences the global competitiveness of high-tech products through industrial upgrading. Policy recommendations emphasize strengthening technological innovation, enhancing education and government support, leveraging regional strengths, and achieving a balance between internal innovation capabilities and market openness. The findings suggest these strategies are crucial for enhancing export performance in the global market for high-tech products.

“…He concluded that human capital, components of imports, FDI inflows, and DGP per capita are the indicators of high-technology exports. Sojoodi and Baghbanpour (2023) searched for the cointegration relationship between high-technology export and GDP growth for 30 developing and 30 developed countries and they revealed that high-technology exports do not have any effect on economic growth.…”

High-tech export-led growth is an important determinant in terms of having a milestone feature for the level of development of countries. Although the restrictions arise from recent literature, it is obvious that countries, like Korea with 35.7% the high-technology product export ratio and China with 31.3%, that have set a strategy on the high-technology export-led growth could have managed to achieve what they aimed to have. It is obvious that to make any investment in high-technology products, a certain level of savings should be achieved. The purpose of this paper is to determine the savings level that is necessary for achieving a high-technology export level for economic growth. The motivation arises from the willingness to shed light on policymakers on their way to achieve the high-technology export-led growth. Sixteen countries with high-technology product export levels higher than the World’s average are chosen in order to test the HXT export-led growth strategy at the initial stage. The period of 2007–2020 has been chosen due to the availability of the data. After achieving the result that there is a bidirectional casualty relationship between HTX and economic growth, by using the threshold regression model it is concluded that after achieving the savings level of 38.73%, countries can create an increase in their HTX level. And this is a very important output for policymakers for setting their strategies for the high-technology export-led growth. Hence the main aim of the policymakers is to increase welfare level of citizens, they should aim to reach 38.73% in order to achieve the high-technology export-led growth. After reaching this savings level they will have a chance to make investments for producing high-technology products by routing their savings to research and development and getting patents. In this way, they will have a chance to increase the welfare levels with the HTX-led growth strategy.

PurposeThis study investigates the potential of low-income countries to mitigate technological lock-ins by exploiting windows of opportunity (WOOs). Given their inherent inclination toward path dependency, these countries often face challenges in diversifying beyond their established technological trajectories. We examine the pivotal role of adopting shorter cycle times of technologies (CTTs) in opening technological WOO, triggering unrelated diversification and accelerating technological catch-up.Design/methodology/approachUsing fixed-effect regression models, we analyze country-level patent data within the neurotechnology domain from 1995 to 2021 – a period marked by significant technological change since 2010. Our focus lies in comparing diversification and catch-up trends between low-income and high-income countries, while evaluating the performance of CTT.FindingsOur findings reveal that as low-income countries increase their knowledge complexity (KC), they tend to be locked into existing technological paths. To mitigate lock-in risks, they can strategically adopt technologies with shorter CTTs. These technologies act as catalysts, opening up technological WOOs and stimulating unrelated diversification. KC presents a double-edged sword in the catch-up process, but unrelated diversification can eliminate this dilemma.Practical implicationsOur study introduces the KC-CTT framework, proposing practical strategies to enhance and sustain countries’ competitive advantages.Originality/valueDiversification and catch-up emerge from two separate bodies of literature but present a conceptual overlap. This research bridges the gap between the two literatures by investigating the impact of CTT as their predictor variable.
