Abstract: To construct a diverse anticipatory practice for the future of science parks, this work gives a systematic understanding of the effect of the regional background on the benefit of science parks, and of the synergy of the elements of the innovation system, which contains a space dimension and regional differences, and represents the unique characteristics of the regional environment at various geographic scales. This work examines the function and effect of different geographic scales on the conditions required for the evolution of science parks based on regional innovation systems. The research analyzes the implications of the development of science parks through different spatial scales from the perspective of the regional innovation system. The function of innovation in the Hsinchu and Southern Taiwan Science Parks is examined by comparing the two parks, confirming the effect of different regional backgrounds on the benefit of the science parks.
