Abstract:Since the concept of regional innovation system was proposed in the 1990s, great progress has been made in theory and research methods and other aspects, and applied to the practice of regional innovation. With the help of bibliometric tools VOSviewer, HistCite and CiteSpace software, the research progress and trends of regional innovation systems are analyzed based on the research literature of domestic and foreign regional innovation systems from 1998 to 2020. Results are shown as follows. 1) The number of domestic and international research literature has been increasing, with Europe and the United States being the main sites of regional innovation system research and emerging market countries such as Asia growing rapidly. 2) Both domestic and international research hotspots show a trend from basic concepts and fundamental theories to diversified themes, but with different focuses at different stages. 3) The research content is constantly enriched, reflected in four aspects. Research themes continue to broaden, from the exploration of fundamental concepts to interdisciplinary theories, and then to the emergence of emerging themes. Research regions are no longer limited to “single specific regions”, with more case studies of newly industrialized and developing regions and less focus on developed regions. As for the disciplinary areas of research, foreign disciplines of economics, business and management, and domestic disciplines of economics and management have become the main disciplines in the study of regional innovation systems. Research methods have shifted from qualitative analysis to a combination of qualitative and quantitative, and the trend of integrating with frontier technologies such as big data is more obvious in recent years. 4) The future research will tend to be multi-perspective, multi-scale and multi-disciplinary, focusing on the research of innovation subject, innovation behavior and the coupling of innovation subject and innovation environment.
