Abstract

A new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation is sweeping the world, and urban industrial transformation and upgrading are becoming increasingly important to every city. As a new type of policy tool, government venture capital (GVC) has received high attention from governments and is used to promote the transformation and upgrading of urban industries. Based on the theoretical discussions on the impacts and mechanisms of GVC on urban industrial transformation and upgrading, an empirical study with the evidence of a panel data of 277 cities in China from 2016 to 2020 is conducted. It is found that a significant positive correlation between GVC and the advanced level of urban industries and the rationality of urban industrial structure. Further analysis shows GVC can better promote urban transformation and upgrading at the advanced regions, while GVC can significantly improve the advanced level of industrial structure in the central regions, and improve the rationality of industrial structure in the western regions. Corresponding suggestions are given to the local governments to accelerate urban industrial transformation and upgrading through GVC.
