This study investigates the factors influencing intercity venture capital (VC) investments in China using multiple linear regression (MLR) and random forest (RF). The findings reveal that economic, financial, innovation, location, and policy factors significantly influence VC investments. Both models highlight the importance of economic and financial variables, followed by innovation. However, the relative importance of these variables shows spatial heterogeneity across China's eastern, central, and western regions.
