RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To study the innovation system synergies of pharmaceutical manufacturing industry in Shanghai and lay the foundation for further enhancing the competitiveness of pharmaceutical enterprises of Shanghai. METHODS:Based on the composite system synergy degree model,order variables(G)of innovation environment(S1),innovation technology research and development(S2),innovation technology absorption(S3)and innovation output(S4)in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry innovation system in Shanghai during 2006-2014 were selected,synergy degree model was built,and order parameter,order de-gree,synergy degree of each order variable were calculated in turn. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:S1-S4 obtained 4,4,4,2 or-der variables respectively. According to the calculation,synergy degree of pharmaceutical manufacturing industry in Shanghai dur-ing 2006-2014 ranged in -0.195-0.202,average value was -0.068,overall in the level ofinverse synergyandnon-synergy. Thus,the internal development of the pharmaceutical manufacturing innovation system in Shanghai is more disorderly. It is suggest-ed to reform from the two core influencing factors of the stability of innovative environment and promoting technology absorption, including accelerating the transformation and upgrading of the pharmaceutical industry to create a stable and innovative environ-ment,increasing the innovation investment of the pharmaceutical industry to improve the level of technology absorption and inde-pendent innovation,as well as strengthening cooperation within and outside the domain to effectively enhance the system synergy degree level of pharmaceutical manufacturing innovation system in Shanghai.
