This paper assesses the effectiveness of public policy for innovation — the case of Shanghai and evaluation model and methods of those policies is discussed. Many publicities have been implemented by Shanghai government for promoting innovation in the past few years. The evaluation of those policies is really important when making policy for the next step. This paper is based on the data of main index of science and technology during 14 years (1995–2007). By comparative static analysis and Input-output efficiency testing, the paper draws the conclusion that the investment and the outcome of science and technology are positive correlated, and each index increases in the form of Time Series. But it still needs to be adjusted and improved in some detailed aspects.
