Research on the Impact of Digital Economy on Enterprise Innovation Ability

摘要: 数字经济逐渐成为经济高质量发展的重要推动力，是国家和经济发展的重要引擎。本文以我国A股上市公司为研究对象，探究数字经济发展与企业创新能力的关系并考察两者之间的作用机制。研究结果表明，① 数字经济发展显著提高企业创新水平，与创新“数量”相比数字经济对企业的创新“质量”作用更明显，研究进一步发现二者呈非线性递增的关系；② 从内部渠道和外部环境研究数字经济发展对企业创新的影响机制表明，数字经济通过缓解企业融资约束和优化营商环境来实现；③ 异质性分析表明数字经济发展对中西部地区企业、国有企业的促进作用更为突出。

This paper takes China’s A-share listed companies as the research object to explore the relationship between the development of digital economy and enterprise innovation ability and examine the role mechanism between them. The results of the study show that: ① the development of digital economy significantly improves the level of enterprise innovation, and compared with the “quantity” of innovation, the digital economy plays a more obvious role in the “quality” of enterprise innovation, and the study further finds that the two are in a non-linear increasing relationship; ② from the internal channel and the external environment, the development of digital economy has a significant impact on enterprise innovation, which is the most important engine for the development of the country and economy. The study of the impact mechanism of digital economy development on enterprise innovation from internal channels and external environment shows that the digital economy is realized by alleviating enterprise financing constraints and optimizing the business environment; ③ the analysis of heterogeneity shows that the digital economy development has a more prominent role in promoting the enterprises of the central and western regions and the state-owned enterprises.
