Description:

The government has envisaged the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region as a world-class urban agglomeration around the nation’s capital that leads the rest of the county in coordinated regional development and reform, innovation-driven growth, and ecological restoration and environmental improvement. With a focus on the role of innovation in recent economic achievements across the region, the volume discusses a range of related issues, including the appropriate theoretical framework for studying the topic, the effects of specific measures designed to boost growth through innovation, and difficulties the region still faces. Contributors present their research findings and analysis of how to unleash the full potential of innovation as a driver of economic growth through institutional reform, support for enterprises, coordination between R&D and industrial application, and tax incentives.
