The leading provinces, what did they do right?
According to statistics, Liu Xielin, head of the research group of the report and director of the China Innovation and Entrepreneurship Management Research Center of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, pointed out that large provinces and cities still have an advantage in terms of innovation strength.
The top three provinces in this ranking - Guangdong, Beijing and Jiangsu - have a comprehensive score of more than 35 points in regional innovation ability, which is a leading region in innovation.
The data shows:
The number of industrial enterprises above designated size in Guangdong reached 670,000, an increase of 20,000 in 5 years;
The number of high-tech enterprises reached 690,000, more than doubled in 5 years;
In terms of enterprise R&D investment and comprehensive indicators of technical capacity improvement, Guangdong ranks first;
This all speaksThe enterprise has strong innovation abilityIt is the characteristic and advantage of Guangdong.
In order to create a good business environment, Guangdong actively retains talents, incubates high-tech industries, and continuously strengthens its leading position as an international science and technology innovation center in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. At present, there are about 4 foreign talents working in Guangdong with certificates40,000 people, including more than 1 high-end foreign talents10,000 people, a large number of the world"The strongest brain".Gathered in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, it has become the foundation and support for Guangdong's regional innovation capability to continue to lead.
In addition to Guangdong, some regions have also emerged some advanced experiences and practices in cultivating new momentum for innovation and development.
Beijing:Three national laboratories in Zhongguancun, Changping and Huairou have been built with high standards, and the Beijing Huairou Comprehensive National Science Center has shown its prototype, cultivated a number of new R&D institutions, broken through a number of "stuck neck" technologies, and emerged a number of world-leading original scientific and technological achievements.
Jiangsu:Accelerate the construction of an industrial science and technology innovation center with global influence. Strengthen the docking of innovation chain, industrial chain and capital chain, and achieve remarkable results in building strategic scientific and technological forces, solving bottleneck technical problems, and promoting the transformation of scientific and technological achievements.
Zhejiang:We will lead systemic change with digital reform, and make every effort to promote the construction of digital, digital, digital society, and digital culture.
Shandong:Accelerate the transformation of old and new kinetic energy, and focus on the cultivation of high-tech enterprises, the science and technology reward system, and breakthroughs in key core technologies.
Anhui:The implementation of the "competitive horse race" mechanism, the scientific and technological innovation into the assessment items, the regional innovation ability for 12 consecutive years ranked first in the country.
Is the higher the wage price in a region with a stronger ability to innovate?
In general, regions with stronger comprehensive innovation capabilities are accompanied by higher wage prices, because innovation ability is related to the following factors.
Level of economic development:Regions with strong innovation capabilities typically have higher levels of economic development, which means they have higher spending power, stronger corporate profitability, and therefore better ability to offer higher salaries to attract and retain talent.
Industrial Structure:The industrial structure of innovative regions is generally biased towards high-tech and high-value-added industries, such as information technology and biotechnology, and the average wages of these industries are higher than those of traditional labor-intensive industries.
Human Capital Accumulation:In areas with strong innovation ability, there is a greater demand for high-quality labor, and the ** of such talents is relatively scarce, so enterprises are willing to pay higher wages to attract them.
Regional Competition:In order to enhance their competitiveness, in addition to the introduction of subsidy policies for settling down and buying houses, major regional cities are starting a "war for talent", and they may also attract and retain outstanding innovative talents by raising salaries.
Policy Factors:In order to attract investment and optimize the business environment, local policies will encourage enterprises to invest in specific areas through tax incentives, subsidies and other policy means, which will also indirectly push up the wage level in the region.
But it should be noted thatThe ability to innovate and wage prices are not always a simple causal relationshipBecause wage levels are affected by a variety of complex factors, including but not limited to the supply and demand situation in the labor market, the strategic decisions of enterprises, the socio-cultural background, and so on.
Taking the 50% quantile data as an example, it is also the salary price of the post level:
In 2022, Guangdong, which ranked first in regional innovation ability, has a median salary of 8 for grassroots, middle-level and senior management positions250,000 years, 10670,000 years, 14760,000 years;
In 2022, Tianjin, which ranked 14th in regional innovation ability, has a median salary of 8 for grassroots, middle-level, and senior management positions980,000 years, 10890,000 years, 12120,000 years.
In addition to the top management posts, the wages of the grassroots management posts and middle management posts in Tianjin are higher than those in Guangdong.
In addition, in some cases,Excessively high labor costs can also have a negative impact on the ability to innovateFor example, companies are unable to invest enough money in R&D activities due to high labor costs.
How to reasonably set the remuneration of the enterprise?At this time, it is particularly important to have an authoritative reference to the market wage price information.
In order to smooth the salary information of different industries, guide the orderly flow of human resources, and provide reference for enterprises to do a good job in labor cost control, the latest market wage prices and labor cost information have been released in various places.
