development of innovation activities are the important impetus for the rapid
development of China’s economy. Due to the low level of technology,
insufficient funds and scarce resources of scientific and technological
innovation, China’s innovation strategy tends to imitate technological
innovation. For developing countries, this model of imitation and innovation
has indeed played an important role in improving a country’s technological
conditions and laid a technological foundation for catching up with developed
countries. First, this paper defines the concept of imitation innovation,
analyzes the relationship between the imitation innovation and independent
innovation, the issue between imitation innovation and intellectual property,
the influence factors of imitation innovation; secondly, the influence of
imitation innovation on enterprise innovation performance is summarized.
Finally, the future research of imitation innovation is prospected.
