Discussion on Innovation and Entrepreneurship Investment in Hainan Free Trade Port

Abstract

As an important testing ground for China's deepening reform and opening-up, the construction of an innovation and entrepreneurship investment ecosystem in the Hainan Free Trade Port holds strategic significance for regional economic development. This paper systematically analyzes the developmental characteristics and operational mechanisms of innovation and entrepreneurship investments under
the free trade port policy framework, focusing on the interactive relationships among institutional innovation, capital flows, and industrial
synergy. The study finds that the special tax arrangements and cross-border capital management systems in the free trade port have effectively
activated the venture capital market, but face practical bottlenecks such as policy implementation disparities and incomplete financial service
chains. Based on these findings, optimization suggestions are proposed, covering the application of digital financial instruments, innovation in
regional linkage mechanisms, and restructuring of professional talent cultivation systems. These recommendations provide theoretical support
and practical references for improving the investment ecosystem in the free trade port, contributing to the development of an internationally
competitive innovation and entrepreneurship hub.
