Abstract As a newly emerged development zone model featuring cross-region cooperation and collaborative construction, Joint Development Zone (hereafter referred to as JDZ) is an important spatial platform for promoting industrial transfer, regional cooperation, and regional economic integration. Constructing JDZs through cross-regional cooperation may, to a certain extent, ease the pressures associated with factor-tense and industry transormation in the development of China’s developing zones. This would help the regional industry and allow regional cooperation to shift to regional integration. The JDZ in the Yangtze River Delta region has outperformed the other JDZs in China. As of 2011, over 40 JDZs have been built in Jiangsu and Zhejiang province, including China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park (SIP), Suzhou-Suqian Industrial Park, etc. Over 20 JDZs have been built in areas adjacent to Shanghai, including the Caohejing Hi-Tech Development Zone Haining Partition. Meanwhile, Anhui has set up the Yangtze Delta JDZ in the Wan River Industrial Transfer Demonstration Zone. JDZ is playing an increasingly important role in industry transfer and regional integration. The home side administration Authority of JDZ coalizes cross-regionally with the gust administrative or market players that are advantage-complementary through joint planning, construction, management and tax distribution in certain region in the local side. The home side shall provide institution innovation revenue to the guest side, management or enterprises, to encourage oriented industry transfer and help agglomeration, thus to enhance the development of both side and win-win result. It has three main effects:demonstration effect of industry transfer and upgrading, revenue returning effect and industry update and platform effect of regional cooperation and coordinated development. The key to success of JDZ are the options and innovations of the management model. The management model can be extracted according to its functional features of planning management and development and forms a three level pyramid. This pyramid is composed of a local administration coordination body for both sides, an administration body for the JDZ itself and the group of investors to the JDZs. As has been shown, the status and function in the specific management model of the three levels determines the difference of the functional direction of the management as a whole and has a strong impact on the goal, location, function distribution and interest distribution of the management model. Accordingly, the management model can be also defined as developing-oriented and opening-oriented, with each having their own advantages and disadvantages. As the management model itself is still in the process of improving and innovating, putting forward a balanced management model emphasizing both developing and third-party participation in opening features is highly anticipated.
