Abstract

Based on the panel data of 31 provinces in China from 2011 to 2020, this paper constructs a digital economy innovation system to measure the development level of digital economy innovation, and uses the mediation effect model to test the mechanism of digital economy innovation on industrial structure upgrading. The results show that: (1) there is a “U” shaped relationship between digital economy innovation and industrial structure rationalization, and an inverted “U” shaped relationship between digital economy innovation and industrial structure premiumization; (2) Digital economy innovation can significantly promote technological progress; (3) Digital economy innovation can promote the advanced industrial structure through technological progress, and does not have a significant transmission effect on the rationalization of the industrial structure. Based on this, the development of digital infrastructure should be coordinated in an overall manner, the construction of digital platforms should be promoted, and differentiated and flexible digital development policies should be formulated for different regions and industries.
