ABSTRACT
A theoretical model of regional Sci-Tech innovation-driven strategic emerging industry
development is constructed with the modern service industry as the mediating variable and regional
marketization level as the moderating variable. Based on Chinese provincial panel data from 2010-
2020, a multiple regression model is used to empirically analyze the mechanism of the role of regional
Sci-Tech innovation driving the development of the strategic emerging industry. The research results
show that: regional Sci-Tech innovation significantly drives the development of the strategic emerging
industry; the modern service industry plays a partly intermediary role in the process of regional Sci-
Tech innovation driving the growth of the strategic emerging industry; the level of marketization plays
a positive moderating role in the relationship between regional Sci-Tech innovation and modern service
industry development, and modern service industry and strategic emerging industry development; the
level of marketization has a positive effect on the relationship between regional Sci-Tech innovation and
The marketization level plays a positive regulating role in the relationship between regional Sci-Tech
innovation and the development of modern service industry and the development of modern service
industry and strategic new industry.
