数字化转型对企业创新绩效及其细分维度的影响

The Impact of Digital Transformation on Firms'innovation Performance and Its Segmentation Dimensions

随着数字技术的高速发展,借助数字技术提高创新能力是企业重点关注的问题。以2009—2021年中国沪深A股制造业上市公司为研究对象,建立多元回归模型分析数字化转型对企业创新绩效的影响,并将企业创新绩效进一步划分为发明专利授权、实用新型专利授权和外观设计专利授权,探究数字化转型究竟会影响何种难度的创新,同时,分析外部交易成本和内部控制质量在其中发挥的中介作用。结果表明:数字化转型有利于促进企业的创新绩效提高,对发明专利授权、实用新型专利授权和外观设计专利授权均有显著影响;外部交易成本和内部控制质量在企业数字化转型和创新绩效及其细分维度之间发挥部分中介作用;技术密集型企业进行数字化转型对企业创新绩效、发明专利授权和外观设计专利授权的作用更显著。因此,建议企业积极推进数字技术与企业内部业务的深度融合,优化企业运营方式,从而更好地开展企业创新活动。

With the rapid development of digital technology,improving innovation ability with the help of digital technology is a key concern for enterprises.Taking chinese Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listed companies in the manufacturing industry as the research object from 2009 to 2021,we establish a multiple regression model to analyze the impact of digital transformation on the innovation performance of enterprises,and further classify the innovation performance of enterprises into invention patent granted,utility model patent granted,and design patent granted,to explore what kind of difficulty of innovation will be affected by digital transformation,and,at the same time,to analyze the mediating roles played by the external transaction costs and internal control quality in it.The results show that:digital transformation is conducive to promoting enterprises'innovation performance and has a significant impact on invention patent granted,utility model patent granted and design patent granted;external transaction costs and internal control quality play a partially mediating role between enterprises'digital transformation and innovation performance and its subdimensions;and digital transformation of technology-intensive enterprises has a more significant impact on enterprises'innovation performance,invention patent granted and design patent granted.Therefore,it is recommended that enterprises actively promote the in-depth integration of digital technology with their internal business and optimize the way they operate in order to better carry out their innovation activities.
