Abstract

This study seeks to evaluate the marine science and technology innovation capabilities in Shandong Province. By selecting indicators from four key areas—innovation entities, projects, outcomes, and support systems—the research establishes a comprehensive evaluation index system. Shandong Province, known for its extensive marine territory and rich resources, has long been a leader in marine economic development, playing a vital role in the nation's overall marine strategy. Strengthening innovation in marine science and technology is crucial for furthering the province's marine economy. Drawing on statistical data from marine research institutions, the study integrates theories and methodologies from economics, management, statistics, and modern information science to conduct an in-depth assessment of Shandong's marine innovation capabilities. The findings reveal that Shandong has achieved a relatively high level of capability in this area, with marine-focused universities and research institutions playing a particularly significant role. Nevertheless, there remains potential for enhancing investment in marine R&D. This research underscores the importance of a thorough evaluation of marine science and technology innovation in coastal regions, providing valuable theoretical and practical insights for advancing the national marine development strategy.
