摘要: 确保企业创新行为与创新言论的真实性,是推动经济高质量发展的关键。本文聚焦企业创新过程中实质性创新行为与创新信息披露脱节的问题——即企业策略性创新现象,构建了一个衡量企业策略性创新的综合指标。基于中国沪深两市A股上市企业2007—2023年数据,实证检验作为外部技术获取关键渠道的专利转入对企业策略性创新的治理效应。研究发现,专利转入能够显著抑制企业策略性创新,有力促进企业创新行为与创新言论相匹配。机制分析表明,这一治理效应经由双重路径实现:在“言”的层面,专利转入能够提升管理层讨论与分析(MD&A)的文本语调,并吸引分析师关注;在“行”的层面,专利转入能够驱动企业增加实质性的研发支出,并切实提高创新效率与创新质量。进一步地,本文在拓展性研究中紧贴政策要求,探讨市场化程度、财政科技支出、知识产权示范城市,以及中央产业政策鼓励对治理企业策略性创新的增益效果。本文的研究结论为推进技术交易市场建设提供了新的证据,也为如何引导企业实现从“说得漂亮”到“做得扎实”的转变提供了重要的政策启示。

Abstract: Ensuring the authenticity of firms' innovative behavior and statements is crucial for promoting high-quality economic development. This paper focuses on the disconnect issue between substantive innovative activities and innovation information disclosure in the firms' innovation processes—namely the phenomenon of firms' strategic innovation, and constructs a comprehensive indicator to measure such strategic innovation. Based on data from A-share listed companies in China's Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges from 2007 to 2023, this study empirically tests the governance effect of patent inbound transfer, a key channel for external technology acquisition, on firms' strategic innovation. The findings reveal that patent inbound transfer can significantly inhibit firms' strategic innovation and effectively promote the alignment between their innovative behavior and statements. Mechanism analysis indicates that this governance effect is achieved through a dual path: at the “statement” level, patent inbound transfer can enhance the textual tone of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and attract analyst attention; whereas at the “action” level, it can drive firms to increase substantive R&D investment and effectively improve innovation efficiency and quality. Furthermore, in the extended analysis, this paper, closely following policy requirements, explores the enhancing effects of the market-oriented environment, fiscal science and technology expenditures, competence to be an intellectual property model city, and the beneficial effect from central industrial encouragement policies on the governance of firms' strategic innovation. The conclusions of this study provide new evidence for advancing the construction of the technology trading market and offer important policy implications for guiding firms to shift from “talking the talk” to “walking the walk” in the innovation processes.
