Description
Summary:Digital transformation of enterprises is not only a choice to comply with the economic development trend, but also the use of digital technology to reduce costs and increase efficiency is a necessary path for enterprise development. Under the TOE framework, this paper takes digital technology, enterprise digital transformation and digital economy development level as the main variables. By constructing a PVAR model to incorporate the three into the same analytical framework, the dynamic interrelationship and the degree of influence between the three in the time series are empirically examined. The research results show that (1) digital technology, digital transformation of enterprises and the level of digital economy development are causally related to each other and have a mutually reinforcing influence. (2) There are inertia development and self-reinforcement mechanisms among the three variables. (3) Although the interaction among the three variables gradually decreases and tends to zero over time, it still has a strong lag. The research results enrich the dynamic relationship between digital technology, enterprise digital transformation and digital economy development, and provide strategic references for enterprise transformation and upgrading.
