The construction of regional STI platform is a significant carrier for cultivating and developing strategic emerging industries, and the synergistic coupling between the layout of such construction and industrial development’s stage and demands is the prerequisite and basis for realizing industry support of STI platform. From both the width and intensity of the synergistic coupling, this paper constructs the synergetic relationship measure model, and verifies its effectiveness and feasibility through the example of Guangdong Province. The survey finds that in the synergetic relationship between them in Guangdong, there are large regional differences, embodied in four types: platform- driven, industrial spillover, synchronous development and benign interaction, and the width and intensity of the synergistic coupling is relatively low while a benign interaction coupling mechanism has not yet been formed. This study provides a scientific basis for effectively measuring the degree of the synergistic coupling between regional STI platform and industries, and optimizing the layout of STI platform construction.
