This type of research borrows a lot of concepts from ecology and very vividly describes the competition and cooperation relationships formed by various agents in the innovation system, laying a good foundation for qualitative analysis of the inherent dynamics of innovation development. However, many studies focus on the analogous description of ecosystems and economic systems, lacking scientifically and rigorously quantitative empirical research as support. This paper uses network-based indicators such as degree, cluster coefficient, and betweenness centrality to measure the function and position of high-tech enterprises in the Z-Park of a business environment. In this way, we clarify the socioeconomic meaning of the topological structure of the regional innovation system. On this basis, it provides theoretical references for regional innovation development and sustainable development policy formulation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/e23080978","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,29]],"date-time":"2021-07-29T21:21:21Z","timestamp":1627593681000},"page":"978","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Analyzing the Co-Competition Mechanism of High-Tech Park from the Perspective of Complex Socioeconomic Network"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Lizhi","family":"Xing","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Economics and Management, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"},{"name":"International Business School, Beijing Foreign Studies University, Beijing 100089, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Han","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Economics and Management, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jingying","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Economics and Management, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1328","DOI":"10.1002\/ece3.1965","article-title":"Niche partitioning in a sympatric cryptic species complex","volume":"6","author":"Jessica","year":"2016","journal-title":"Ecol.
