Abstract

Innovation input and output and their relations in urbanized area plays an essential role in the improvement of national innovation capability. This paper explores the comprehensive level, decoupling type and relative efficiency of counties’ innovation input–output (I-O) of 153 counties (county-level cities) in the Yangtze River Delta, where has achieved the highest level of urbanization in China. The results show that: (1) The comprehensive level of counties’ innovation I-O presents a “pyramid” structure, which means few counties are at a high level while the majority counties stand in a low level. With regard to three provinces, Jiangsu is higher than Zhejiang than Anhui. (2) Over 80% of counties hold significant decoupling, in which nearly 40% belong to the negative decoupling type. They mainly distributed in Jiangsu, northern Zhejiang and northwestern Anhui, which the intensity of innovation output is relatively lower than the scale of input. (3) Around 20% of the counties’ innovation I-O are SBM efficiency with positive decoupling areas show higher innovation efficiency.
