Abstract

In the era of digital economy, digital technology continues to integrate with the real economy. How to effectively realize the digital transformation has become an important research topic. Based on a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis of 62 Chinese manufacturing enterprises, we identify and explore four conditions that influence digital transformation. The four conditions are enterprise size, profitability, R&D capability and innovation environment. The results show that there are two main configuration pathways for digital transformation of manufacturing enterprises. One is resource-driven transformation with large enterprise size as the core condition. The other is innovation-driven transformation with strong R&D capability as the core condition.
