Substantive Innovation or Strategic Innovation? Research on Multiplayer Stochastic Evolutionary Game Model and Simulation

Abstract EN

Innovation subsidy is of great significance to promoting enterprise innovation development.

However, in recent years, the frequent occurrence of R&D subsidy deception in China has greatly reduced effectiveness of innovation.

From the perspective of the strategic choice motivation of the innovation subject (including the enterprises, research institutions, and local governments), this paper constructs a multiplayer stochastic evolutionary game model.

The influence of each variable on the subject strategy adoption is analyzed by simulation.

There are two important findings in this paper.

First, the paper confirms that there is an optimal boundary for the high subsidies received by enterprises and academic institutions, and the “subsidy boundary” is solved through the model.

Second, this paper analyzes the effectiveness of the regulation of each variable through simulation and provides management and policy implications.
