Trade Review'This unique book offers a series of case studies about how technology creation has evolved in China. This is an in-depth perspective about the trajectory and the entrepreneurial transformations of some successful high-tech Chinese companies in different industries. The book pictures as well the roles played by government, universities and companies in fostering regional systems of innovation in different parts of China. Written by Chinese and foreign experts, those views are not partial; authors reveal an untruncated and thorough analysis.' --Dominique Jolly, SKEMA Business School, France
'Technological Entrepreneurship in China is a book with much to recommend it. . . Overall, the depth and range of topics covered make a significant contribution to contemporary Chinese studies, particularly in light of concerns about whether China can innovate its way out of a possible middleincome trap.'
--Douglas Fuller, The China Journal
