Abstract

The current economic development has entered the stage of high-quality development,high-tech industrial agglomeration has become one of the important means to promote the high-quality development of regional economy.Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China from 2001 to 2018,this paper studies the relationship between high-tech industry and regional total factor productivity.Firstly,after considering heteroscedasticity and endogeneity,GLS is used to estimate the model.The results show that high-tech industrial agglomeration has a positive impact on regional TFP,but its effect is not very large,and there are obvious spatial differences.Specifically speaking,the high-tech industrial agglomeration in the eastern region has a significant role in promoting TFP,while the western region has a significant effect on TFP.But in the East,there is no significant relationship between them.Finally,the threshold regression model is used to develop the inverted "U"relationship between the two.Finally,the paper puts forward policy suggestions on the research conclusion.
