Research on the Digital Transformation Path of Traditional Industrial Clusters Based on Industrial In-ternet Platform:A Case Study of Guangdong Province
Industrial clusters play a strong supporting role in economic development,but the digital transforma-tion of traditional industrial clusters faces the dilemma of insufficient momentum,loose connection,and limited resilience.Guangdong province enjoys a solid industrial internet foundation.Although traditional industrial clus-ters have accelerated their digital transformation pace via industrial internet platforms,there is little literature about the path of its transformation.Based on the theories of population and dual natures,as well as the case study of Guangdong province,it is found that the different elements,types,as well as the duality of platforms will result in different digital transformation and upgrading paths.The paper therefore proposed three digital transfor-mation paths for neutral,influential,and leading enterprises in order to provide practical suggestions for the digi-tal transformation development of traditional industrial clusters.
