description Digital economy is the general trend of future development, and the demand of digital technology for skilled talent structure will also change. This paper regards digital technology as a kind of technological innovation, and discusses the impact of digital economic development on labor structure on the basis of modeling analysis and empirical analysis. Firstly, based on the vertical technological innovation theory, this paper constructs a macro equilibrium model including the structure of talents with different skills for analysis. Secondly, it makes an empirical analysis by using provincial panel data and regression methods such as synthetic control method; Through the analysis, some basic conclusions are obtained, including digital economy can promote the advancement of skilled talents, and the proportion of highly skilled talents is gradually increased; Secondly, regional economic coordination policies can promote the diffusion of digital technology and the upgrading of skilled talents. Finally, the paper puts forward some countermeasures and suggestions according to the analysis conclusion.
