Abstract

In the context of the development of new productivity, digital industry, as the core driving force of technological breakthroughs and industrial transformation, promotes the market-oriented allocation of data elements, accelerates the integration of digital technology. This study takes Hebei Province as an empirical object to explore the relationship between the coordinated development of digital industry and urban economy in Hebei Province from 2019 to 2023. By constructing the “entropy weight-coupling” model, using the entropy weight method to objectively assign weights, constructing an evaluation index system for digital industry and urban economy, using the coupling coordination model to measure the coordination level, and using SPSS for data analysis. The results of the empirical study show that the overall comprehensive scores of digital industries and urban economy in Hebei Province showed an upward trend from 2019 to 2023. The coupling coordination degree between the two jumped from moderate disharmony in 2019 to high-quality coordination in 2023, indicating that the system relationship has moved from horizontal coordination to high-level mutual promotion.
