AI-Development in Tianjin, PR China : Triple Helix Patterns for a “Mission-oriented” Innovation Endeavor

The development and society-wide implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) has become understood as being of crucial importance for economic advancement and international competitiveness. This study suggests conceptualizing the Chinese drive for AI-related innovation as a “grand project” that follows the design of “mission-oriented” innovation policies. Analyzing current developments from the perspective of the triple helix paradigm, the study focuses its attention on related activities in Tianjin. Here it identifies a “balanced” triple helix featuring a disproportionately strong, agenda-setting and implementation-controlling state accompanied by extensive boundary crossing activities between the three helix strands. Hybrid institutions that provide bridges between the strands of government, academia and industry are understood to facilitate intensive exchange and highly productive interaction between different types of actors.
