The agglomeration of R&D investment is in favor of getting knowledge spillover, sharing their knowledge and information, saving costs and reducing the R&D risk. In this article, the method of the spatal econometrics, such as Moran index and spatial model were used to analyze the spatial linkage and location factors of the R&D investment by transnational corporations in China. The results showed that the actions of R&D investment had closed spatial association and exhibited obvious spatial agglomeration on the province’s scale. Endogentic factor also had a significant and positive impact on the formation of spatial agglomeration besides the factors of market scale, demand and supply factors of human resources.
