摘要：By creating digitized maps of the special economic zone boundaries and exploiting the geocoded location information on Chinese firms, we improve the evaluation of the effects of zones. We find that the program increases treated firms' innovation outcomes. We also identify knowledge spillovers as an important channel for greater innovation outcomes. Furthermore, the degree of horizontal agglomeration is more crucial than the degree of diversity for facilitating knowledge spillovers and thereby innovation.
