Study On The Impact Of Government Attention Allocation On The Technology Talents Agglomeration And Its Spatial Spillover Effect

In the context of global economic integration and technological transformation and upgrading,the knowledge-based economy is flourishing as a new economic form.As a key strategic element in the knowledge economy era,technology talents have surpassed material capital to become the most valuable and scarce core resources in the process of modern science and technology development and regional innovation.In order to establish a reserve of high-level talents and enhance the overall effectiveness of regional innovation system,local governments are devoting more and more attention to the technology talents’ introduction,support and management.Scholars in China and abroad have conducted extensive and systematic explorations and analysis around government attention and technology talents agglomeration,but the relationship between the two has not been studied from an empirical perspective,and few scholars have explored whether there is a spatial spillover effect on the influence of government attention allocation on technology talents agglomeration from a spatial perspective.Therefore,this paper innovatively introduces the spatial perspective based on traditional research,and combines the Spatial Durbin Model to investigate the impact of government attention allocation on the technology talents agglomeration and its spatial spillover effect.The main research contents of this paper are as follows:Firstly,this paper defines the basic concepts of government attention allocation and technology talents agglomeration,and especially refines government attention allocation into three types of government attention expression,government attention decision and government attention input.Subsequently,the current situation of China’s technology talents overview and government attention allocation is analyzed in the context of the technology talents’ total number and structure,technology talents’ policies and government financial investment.In the research design session,this paper proposes the research hypothesis and elaborates the measurement methods of each variable.Based on the perspective of spatial spillover effect,the research model and matrix are constructed.On the basis of a series of spatial correlation and diagnostic tests,the Spatial Dubin Model is determined to be adopted in this study.Secondly,this paper analyzes the direction and intensity of the impact of government attention allocation on the technology talents agglomeration by OLS model using panel data of 31 provincial administrative regions in China from 2008 to2020.The results show that there is a significant positive correlation between government attention allocation and technology talents agglomeration,and the positive effect of government attention input is greater.Subsequently,this paper explores whether there is a spatial spillover effect on the influence of three forms of government attention allocation on the technology talents agglomeration through the Spatial Durbin Model.Also,this paper decomposes spatial spillover effects and performs regional heterogeneity analysis.It is found that:(1)There are significant spatial correlations and spatial dependencies in the technology talents agglomeration under different spatial weights.(2)There are differences in the spatial spillover of different forms of government attention allocation on technology talents agglomeration,and the influence of government attention input is more prominent.(3)There is a positive effect of government attention input on local technology talents agglomeration in eastern,central and western regions,but the spillover effect on neighboring regions is negative.(4)The influencing factors on technology talents agglomeration show the characteristics of diversity,multi-levelness and correlation.Finally,based on the above findings,this paper proposes corresponding countermeasures on the topic of government attention allocation:(1)The government should emphasize the coordination of " Expression-Decision-Input" attention.(2)Each region should promote the joint development of "Industry-Talent-Region" growth poles.(3)The government should pay attention to promoting the efficient flow of the "Knowledge-Technology-Talent" factor chain.(4)Governments at all levels should accelerate the integrated development of " Education-Science and Technology-Economy".
