Abstract

We present evidence on productivity improvement experienced by the research institutes of the Chinese

Academy of Sciences (CAS) after its implementation of the Knowledge Innovation Program (KIP). Using

a balanced panel of data on R&D inputs and outputs of 59 research institutes in CAS, we analyze the

productivity, technological and efficiency changes from 1997 to 2005.Wedocument that the CAS research

institutes have a productivity growth of 12.5% from 1998 to 2005, which can be further decomposed into

8.8% attributed to technological progress and 3.3% to efficiency improvement. Results of regional analysis

show that institutes in Beijing and Shanghai, performed better than institutes in other regions during the

same period.
