Abstract
Developing regional competitiveness as a means of fostering regional advancement is among the objectives of regional innovation. Nevertheless, there is still a concentration of highly competitive districts on the island of Java, according to statistics from the Ministry of Home Affairs and BRIN. The purpose of this study is to examine how Indonesian regional innovation and competitiveness relate to one another. Quantitative research methodology is applied. All of Indonesia's provinces, districts, and cities make up the study's population. 372 regions, comprising 33 provinces, 69 cities, and 270 districts, made up the samples that were used. A Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis was used to analyze the data. Consequently, the P-value is 0.000 and the correlation coefficient (r) is 0.264, which is less than the significance level of α = 5%. This demonstrates that, despite its importance, Indonesia's regional innovation and competitiveness still have a relatively low link. Accordingly, the advice that can be given based on the research's findings is to pursue innovations that are intended to advance regional competitiveness rather than just increasing the number of innovations.
