  • Technological diversification in China: The role of intra- and extra-regional collaboration

    Open Access•Jiayi Lu, Zhan Cao et al.•ARTICLE•Regional Studies Regional Science•2026•References: 29

    This study investigates how intra- and extra-regional collaborations affect regional technological diversification in Chinese urban regions (URs), using a continuous indicator that places diversification along a spectrum from related to unrelated. Based on patent co-application data from 2001 to 2020, we analyse the intensity, technological diversity and the correlation of intra- and extra-regional collaborations. Our results show that the effect…

  • Buzz-and-pipeline’ dynamics in Chinese science: The impact of interurban collaboration linkages on cities’ innovation capacity

    Zhan Cao, Ben Derudder et al.•ARTICLE•Regional Studies•2021•Cited by: 15•References: 13

    Drawing on the ‘buzz-and-pipeline’ framework, this paper examines the impact of intra- and interregional collaboration linkages on the innovation capacity of cities, as evidenced by the co-publication networks existing among 217 Chinese cities located in 20 city-regions. The results show that (1) intra- and interregional linkages have an inverted ‘U’-shaped and positive relationship with innovation capacity, respectively; (2) the positive effects…
