承接国际服务外包促进了区域创新吗？

本文构建了区域创新能力综合指标,并利用2008-2017年浙江省时间序列数据,实证检验了承接国际服务外包对区域创新能力的影响效果.研究发现:浙江省承接国际服务外包显著推动了区域创新能力发展,并促进了创新成果转化,但创新能力的提升尚未能刺激服务外包的扩张;外包培训与合作、学习模仿是承接服务外包过程中获得技术扩散的最关键途径;国家设立服务外包示范城市的政策效应显著,在带动区域服务外包和创新水平发挥了重要作用.当然,研究还表明当前服务外包产业结构的低端化显著阻碍了区域创新能力发展.本文的政策启示不仅有助于浙江省进一步提升服务外包产业竞争力,对新常态下"中国服务"攀升全球价值链也有积极现实意义.
