  • Research for Policy Development : Industrial Clusters in South China
    CHAPTER 3 Research for policy development: Industrial clusters in South China1 Rigas Arvanitis and Qiu Haixiong Abstract This research study analyses the development of industrial clusters in three institutional contexts in South China to better understand how policies have been developed and implemented to encourage innovation. The authors trace the growth of private enterprises within these clusters, and note that this growth was assisted by local governments and by links with foreign companies, which were instrumental in upgrading networks of suppliers and bringing in foreign expertise. The research shows that innovation centres have begun to create networks of enterprises, improve innovation capacities, and enhance communication with universities and research centres. In some districts, local government policy has promoted innovation centres, especially during diffi cult economic times, when a need for better quality and higher priced products made sense in China. As such, the innovation centres were mainly oriented toward servicing the local industry, rather than maintaining a competitive edge. The research team concludes that ‘marketized’ research centres have a greater probability of success than innovation centres because they base decisions on selling products. Since 1999, China has actively promoted innovation policy to reinforce the technological capabilities of smaller fi rms, while continuing to promote larger multinational fi rms. At the same time, public research centres have undergone rapid ‘marketization’,2 which has transformed many former public engineering research centres into enterprises. It is much too early to assess this strategy, but the speed with which private fi rms and collective enterprises have acquired, adapted and promoted new products, and new productive processes, is remarkable.
