Abstract:

Network data obtained through cooperative relationship between the micro and small enterprises and

other subjects is collected. Pajek helps to realize  visualization of network, and present the cooperative network

of micro and small enterprises. The centrality analysis of network nodes indicates the whole network shows low

centrality and loose structure; meanwhile, 6 subgroups exist in cooperation network, but hardly have cooperative

relationship, which suggests resource and information flow is not smooth and most micro and small enterprises are

weak in source control. Divide network characters into 5 parts: density, strength of ties, relationship desire,

centrality and heterogeneity. Empirical research shows that heterogeneity has significantly positive influence on

creative performance but no influence on finance performance; other hypotheses are supported.

Key words: micro and small enterprise, cooperation analysis, industrial network, network character
