Abstract

In order to promote technological innovation of high-tech enterprises and speed up the process of enterprise innovation, the government has issued a series of subsidy policies. Among them, government subsidies can provide direct financial support for enterprises’ innovative research and development. The extent to which government subsidies cover high-tech enterprises and the use of government subsidies by enterprises have also attracted more and more attention. This article selects the high-tech companies from the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange from 2010 to 2019, and studies the status quo of their government subsidies in terms of coverage, total distribution, use, and industries. It is found that the current high-tech companies have a high coverage of government subsidies and involve a wide range of industries, The financial support is relatively large, but different enterprises and industries are relatively unbalanced, and a relatively high proportion of government subsidies in enterprises are used for daily business activities. At the same time, it provides suggestions for the investment and utilization of government subsidies based on the research status.
