[an error occurred while processing this directive]
Abstract To implement innovation-driven development strategy, it is a must to attach importance to basic researches. Based on the provincial panel data of innovation during the period from 2009 to 2016, this paper analyses the influence of basic research input and its spillover on spatial pattern of regional innovation. The results show that the agglomeration of basic research resources in research institutions has a significant positive impact on regional innovation, while that in universities and enterprises has no significant contribution. The agglomeration of basic research funding in research institutions and universities has a significant positive effect on innovation in the western region, while of agglomeration of basic research personnel in eastern region has significant negative impact. The agglomeration of basic research funding in enterprises shows a significant negative effect on regional innovation in the eastern region, while the effect of agglomeration of basic research personnel shows a significant positive one. The policy indications are that the funding for basic research, especially that in research institutions and universities in western regions, should be increased and the industry-university research cooperation should be strengthened so as to promote the achievement transformation of basic research.
