Do global innovation networks influence the status of global value chains? Based on a patent cooperation network perspective

S. Xu, G. Lian, et al.

This research delves into how global innovation networks influence global value chains, revealing that higher network connectivity and eigenvector centrality lead to enhanced GVC status. Conducted by Shenyi Xu, Ganghui Lian, Miaoyuan Song, and Aiting Xu, this study uncovers insights across varying economies, shedding light on the complexities of innovation and value creation.

Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between global innovation networks (GINs) and global value chains (GVCs). Using patent cooperation data to construct a global innovation cooperation network, the study analyzes the impact of network characteristics (eigenvector centrality, network connectivity, and network structural holes) on GVC status. Empirical findings reveal that GIN characteristics significantly affect GVC status; higher eigenvector centrality and network connectivity are associated with higher GVC status, while higher constraint is linked to lower GVC status. Heterogeneity analysis shows differing impacts across developed, emerging, and developing economies.
