Abstract


On the base of monitoring China’s regional environmental quality and analyzing soft power of innovation environment, the authors make a comprehensive evaluation on China’s 31 provinces’ regional innovation environment in four levels: basic environment, organizational environment, cultural environment and information environment. The study shows that the innovation environment in East Coast is the best; the Central and Northeastern regions are moderate; while the innovation environment of the West is worse than the other three regions. Also, the policy recommendations to enhance innovation environment quality of the West have been proposed.
