Based on the concept of regional coordinated development in the new era,this paper es-tablishes a regional coordinated digital economy model and demonstrates the driving effect of regional inte-gration on the digital economy.Then,this paper focuses on the micro-perspective of production factors,constructs the variables of innovative factors flow based on the Lowry gravity model,and analyzes the cross-regional dynamic influence path of regional integration to promote digital economy under the"enter-pe-riphery"theoretical framework.The results show that:(1)Regional integration promotes the develop-ment of a digital economy in the region and there are"time lag effect"and"space spillover effect".(2)In terms of the threshold effect,the driving effect of regional integration on the digital economy is gradually enhanced with the intensification of the flow of innovation factors.(3)In terms of the flow path,the pro-moting effect of the flow of innovative factors on the regional digital economy is characterized by a path of"aggregation-diffusion",among which,the development of the central region is characterized by"pro-motion-inhibition"and that of the peripheral region is characterized by"inhibition-promotion".Based on the important conclusion that regional integration promotes the development of the digital economy under the regulatory role of innovation factor flow,this paper puts forward relevant policy suggestions for the coor-dinated development of the regional digital economy.
