ABSTRACT: This
paper presents the influence of innovation systems on regional innovation performance in China for the period 1998-2008. It
places special emphasis on the effects of institutional factors, namely
marketization level. The findings indicate that the innovation system
contributes greatly to increasing the level of innovation. Among the factors of
innovation systems, the openness of the region and government
expenditure on education plays key roles. Market-oriented institutional
arrangements also increase innovation performance.
