abstract = {The chapter reflects on China’s dramatic economic achievements over the past four decades and the complex task that policy makers face in continuing China’s progress toward attaining a high-income economy. It argues that, even though no one can predict with any certainty today whether China will continue its growth path or fall into the middle-income trap, it will become increasingly clear in the years to come whether the optimistic or the pessimistic outlook on China’s ability to develop an innovative economy turns out to be correct. The best way to gauge Chinese progress is to track a few salient indicators and compile a “Chinese Innovation Capacity Growth Dashboard.” The proposed indicators include the effectiveness of its intellectual property system, its R&D resource allocation, and its exploitation of foreign R&D assets; the share of resources flowing to state-owned enterprises, of new-to-world innovations, and of papers in leading scientific journals; the ease of starting new firms; the level of financing for startups and small and medium-size enterprises; the autonomy of Chinese universities; and institutionalized trust.},
