Abstract: The present paper investigates the evolution of technology cooperation networks in different industries and the factors influencing them. Based on the cooperative patent data, the technology cooperation networks of the steel, pharmaceutical and solid waste treatment industries are constructed, and the networked evolutionary games model is proposed to study the evolution process of the technology cooperation networks. The effect of cooperation costs, technology spillover, and government support on the evolution of technology cooperation networks is revealed. The results show that reducing cooperation costs and technology spillover and increasing government support can improve the cooperation level and efficiency of technology cooperation networks. Furthermore, there are differences in the impact of these three factors on the evolution of technology cooperation networks in the steel, pharmaceutical, and solid waste treatment industries. This study broadens the research perspective on the evolution of technology cooperation networks and provides practical references for different industries to determine their technical cooperation strategies.
