With globalization and knowledge economy, although distance between spaces and obstacles to social and economic activities are reduced, does variation of space not exist in regional space anymore? Has effect of regional space on economic development changed? Many economic activities, especially research and development, still rely on face-to-face communication, but geographical link is still beneficial to technology sharing and decrease in cost. It¡¦s observed that research and development that knowledge economy relies on still emphasizes geographical link, localization of learning networks, and face-to-face communication, so clustering of high-tech industry is still popular in the world.
In order to solve the abovementioned questions, this research reviews and discusses the theory and research of clustering economy, and analyzes the relationship between clustering of high-tech industry and innovation on the basis of Taiwan¡¦s cities or counties with last twenty¡¦s survey of industrial, business, and service industries. This research discusses effect on clustering of technology industry and its innovative variants. In addition, it¡¦s hypothesized that clustering level of technology industry and innovation of industry are interfacing with each other, in other words, it¡¦s hypothesized that variants as Taiwan¡¦s technology industry and innovation are interfacing with each other instead of being independent. The relationship between clustering of Taiwan¡¦s technology industry and innovation is investigated by 2SLS. The result shows that clustering of technology industry and innovative production have positive correlation, that is to say, clustering of technology industry is beneficial, and it¡¦s also beneficial to innovation of industry, so clustering of industry speeds up.
Results of this research show that technology industry on this island has notable MAR professional dynamic external economics, implying that the more professional clustered one region¡¦s technology industry is, the more beneficial to one region¡¦s professional growth of technology industry is. The more noticeable Porter regional competitive dynamic external economic effect on technology industry is, the more competitive a technology industry is, and the more prevalent one region¡¦s technology is. Technology industry has noticeable human resource dynamic external economics, showing that the better educational background of one region¡¦s population is, the more growth of one region¡¦s technology industry will be.
Clustering industry of agglomeration economy is the primary reason of formation of cities or space centering of economic activities, and it motivates innovation of an industry and development of a city. This research suggests that government should take advantage of clustering knowledge capital of space to multiply effect of clustering and knowledge capital to do space management in terms of future urban space management.
