520 _aTechnological innovations are heterogeneous in nature; some are pioneering while others are not. Drawing on a series of theoretical studies, this paper offers empirical evidence on the differential effects of soft budget constraints on non-pioneering and pioneering innovations by using provincial-level data from China spanning from 2003 to 2015. Using a panel threshold model framework, we observe that soft budget constraints stimulate non-pioneering innovations but hinder pioneering innovations, with the hindering effects outweighing the stimulating effects. These findings underscore the importance of overcoming institutional path dependence and hardening budget constraints to foster the dynamic evolution of innovation modes.
