通过对欧美发达国家和国际权威机构的创新评价标准和评价结果进行分析,发现全球创新型城市具有以下8个基本特征:①具有较强的综合经济实力和较大人口规模;②具有便利快速的对外交通联系;③拥有较强对外经济联系和广泛的全球市场;④集聚一大批多样化高层次创新人才;⑤吸引大量具有高研发能力的组织机构入驻;⑥具有发达的科技中介机构和科技服务能力;⑦建成国际著名的创新平台和空间载体;⑧具有开放性和包容性的创新文化氛围。这些重要经验对我国创新型城市建设有如下启示:构建具有特色的开放式城市创新体系,系统推进创新型城市建设;引进和培育高技术研发机构,提升城市科技的全球竞争力;深入实施高层次人才引进计划,为城市创新发展提供智力支持;健全科技中介服务机构,推动形成完善的城市创新链条;积极发挥政府协调和促进作用,为城市创新发展提供政策保障;多渠道吸收风险资金和民间资本,为城市创新发展提供资金来源;营造良好的自主创新环境,形成利于激发创新的城市创新文化。
Innovative cities are important engines driving a nation' s creative pow- er. China needs to draw on the experience of the global innovative cites. By sum- marizing evaluation criteria used by scholars in European and American countries, the paper provides a list of eight broad indicators that define global innovative cites: 1) comprehensive economic strength and large population, 2) convenient and fast external transport links, 3) extensive international economic ties and ac- cessibility to global markets, 4) large number of high-level innovative talents from different disciplines, 5) agglomeration of R&D organizations, 6) advanced sci- ence and technology intermediaries and high-capacity technological services, 7) availability of innovation platforms and innovation spaces, and 8) open and inclu- sive culture for innovation. We recommend Chinese cities consider the following policies in order to enhance innovation capacity: building a distinctive and open urban innovative system; forming high-tech R & D institutions; attracting high-lev- el talents; building sufficient science and technology intermediary service institu- tions; enhance coordinative and enabling role of the government; attracting ven- ture capital and private capital through multiple channels; and creating a favor- able innovation environment.
