Abstract

In the digital age, driving the intelligent transformation of enterprises is a crucial research topic. This study examines the impact of digital government development on enterprise transformation and explores the pathways to achieve it. Drawing from digital governance and institutional economics theories, government data openness, cloud platform construction, and intelligent government services provide a favorable external environment for enterprise transformation. Digital government development also reduces institutional transaction costs, thus enabling enterprises to invest more resources in technological innovation, including artificial intelligence applications. Empirical research on Chinese listed firms supports these findings. Furthermore, the construction of digital government can effectively promote innovation and management intelligence within the internal value chain of enterprises. Other heterogeneity analyses indicate that this effect is more pronounced in technology-intensive industries and developed regions.

数字政府建设对企业智能化转型的影响：来自中国的证据

在数字化时代，推动企业智能化转型是一个至关重要的研究课题。本研究探讨了数字政府建设对企业转型的影响，并探索了实现企业转型的路径。借鉴数字治理和制度经济学理论，政府数据开放、云平台建设和智慧政务服务为企业转型提供了良好的外部环境。数字政府建设也降低了制度交易成本，从而使企业能够将更多资源投入到包括人工智能应用在内的技术创新中。对中国上市公司的实证研究也支持上述结论。此外，数字政府建设还能有效促进企业内部价值链的创新和管理智能化。其他异质性分析表明，这种效应在技术密集型行业和发达地区更为明显。
