Strategic Planning of Global Innovation and Industry Highland in Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area from a Medium- and Long-Term Perspective

Promoting the construction of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area is a major policy decision and national strategy made by the central government of China, which significantly supports the Belt and Road Initiative and maintains the long-term prosperity for the whole country. As an important part of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area, Foshan needs to find its own position and direction in order to accelerate the joint development with other cities through five measures.

Innovation And Entrepreneurship

Universities are cradles for intellectual and technical innovators, and thus building an innovation and entrepreneurship education ecosystem in universities is of strategic importance for national development. Most studies in China, from the perspective of collaborative innovation, used the EPM model to analyze the features, elements and operational modes of innovation and entrepreneurship education ecosystems in universities based on theories of symbiosis, competition and cooperation, coordination, networking, and the exchange mechanism. Boosted by the strategies to develop the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area, universities in Guangdong start to build innovation and entrepreneurship education ecosystems equipped with such functions as education, service, practice and research in order to promote sharing of resources, build a well-functioning ecosystem and bolster regional economic growth. To build innovation and entrepreneurship education ecosystems, universities can make efforts from the following aspects: to perform overall planning in a top-down manner; to improve the global innovation-entrepreneurship course system and promote multi-pronged course reforms; to introduce excellent teachers and build a team of “triple-competent” teachers; to build a platform for improvement of innovation and entrepreneurship education; to improve innovation and entrepreneurship services and provide customized guidance; encourage training of innovators and entrepreneurs with a global vision to support advancement of the Greater Bay Area and the Belt-and-Road Initiative.

The City

“China has become a predicament as well as a condition for Hong Kong culture” in the age of China, especially after the signing of the Closer Economic Partnership Agreement in 2003. This has become even more acute for Hong Kong culture in the integration of the Greater Bay Area, which can be seen as incorporating Hong Kong and Macao’s development into the overall development of the country. At this particular juncture, the issue of integration with the Mainland has become a topic that is of utmost importance for any consideration of the future of Hong Kong culture and the city as a whole. In this special context, the transmission of Hong Kong popular cultures in the Mainland are related topics that need to be explored. For example, what are the implications behind the success of Hong Kong directors and producers who took the helm of immensely popular Mainland television series? After Cantopop crossed the border, to what extent did the singers and the songs that they sang in Mainland music reality shows represent Hong Kong? These would be very good case studies of Hong Kong culture in cross-border ventures, and studying their transmissions would have long-term implications for not only Hong Kong culture in particular but also Hong Kong Studies in general. This essay endeavors to use these cross-border experiences as examples to offer a prolegomenon to Hong Kong (in China) Studies, which will in turn contribute to the possibility of generating a cultural studies response to the new configuration of the Greater Bay Area.

The Belt And Road

Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) is highly developed, characterized by obvious geographical advantages, excellent natural resources, continuous improvement of environmental quality, and accumulation of scientific and technological innovation elements. It is an important space carrier and hinterland for the construction of " the Belt and Road initiative ". However, the long-term, high-speed, and extensive development model has also caused the Greater Bay Area to carry more debt in the environment and history. Therefore, in order to construct the pattern of ecological civilization construction in GBA, it is urgent to establish and improve the evaluation system and policy system of ecological civilization from the top-level design, and to construct the pattern of high-quality ecological space, green industry and joint defense.

Financial Environment

Three levels of planning can be distinguished in grassland farming: strategic, tactical and operational. The purpose of strategic planning is to achieve a sustainable long-term fit of the farm business with its physical, social and financial environment. In pastoral farming, this essentially means developing plans that maximise and best match pasture growth with animal demand, while generating sufficient income to maintain or enhance farm resources and improvements, and attain personal and financial goals. Strategic plans relate to the whole farm business and are focused on the means to achieve future needs. They should be routinely (at least annually) reviewed and monitored for effectiveness through key performance indicators (e.g., Economic Farm Surplus) that enable progress toward goals to be measured in a timely and cost-effective manner. Failure to link strategy with control is likely to result in unfulfilled plans. Keywords: management, performance

This study analyzes the patterns of university co-authorship networks in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area. It also examines the quality and subject distribution of co-authored articles within these networks. Social network analysis is used to outline the structure and evolution of the networks that have produced co-authored articles at universities in the Greater Bay Area from 2014 to 2018, at both regional and institutional levels. Field-weighted citation impact (FWCI) is used to analyze the quality and citation impact of co-authored articles in different subject fields. The findings of the study reveal that university co-authorship networks in the Greater Bay Area are still dispersed, and their disciplinary development is unbalanced. The study also finds that, while the research areas covered by high-quality co-authored articles fit the strategic needs of technological innovation and industrial distribution in the Greater Bay Area, high-quality research collaboration in the humanities and social sciences is insufficient.
