Abstract
Using 26 listed manufacturing enterprises on the main board of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange as the research object,the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA)was used to explore six influencing factors and how they combine to affect the enterprises' investment in science and technology innovation.The study reveals that there are three paths of strong grouping of STI investment in manufacturing industry:talent-oriented path,internal and external linkage path and internally driven path.The findings further address the asymmetric causal relationship between the intensity of STI inputs and the influencing factors.
