摘   要:While industry-university collaboration (IUC) is an important mechanism to synergize universities’ and industry’s research and development, whether and how this mechanism enhances corporate innovation in China remains unexplored in the literature. In this study, we construct a comprehensive dataset for the innovation and collaboration activities of 108 thousand industrial firms and 153 notable research universities and institutes from 1996 to 2013 in China. Measuring IUC with the occurrence and frequency of patents co-assigned to both firms and universities, we first document that firms with greater IUC produce more and better patent outputs. Instrumental regressions and dynamic difference-in-differences analysis support a causal interpretation of the effect. Further evidence suggests that our results can be attributed to two channels through which firms benefit from IUC: knowledge acquisition and talent recruitment. We also find that IUC leads to more new product sales, which highlights the role of university technologies in firms' innovation commercialization.
