Can Open Public Data Promote the Integration of the Digital Economy and the Real Economy?A Quasi-Natural Experiment from A Government Data Platform Online
As an important basic resource and key production factor supporting digital transformation,public data is a prereq-uisite for scientific governance to evaluate its impact on the integration of digital economy and real economy.Based on the quasi-natural experiment on the launch of government data platform,the coupling evaluation model is used to measure the in-tegration level of digital economy and real economy in 280 prefecture-level cities from 2010 to 2021,and the multi-stage dif-ferential method is used to empirically test the impact of open public data,characterized by the launch of government data platform,on log-real integration.The findings are as follows:(1)the opening of public data significantly promotes the integra-tion of digital economy and real economy,and this conclusion is still valid after a series of robustness tests.(2)Public data opening mainly affects the integration of digital economy and real economy through the internal path of cost effect,factor allo-cation effect and technological innovation effect.(3)The enhancement effect of open log-real integration of public data has significant differences in administrative level,market protection and resource endowment cities,and it is more obvious for high administrative level,high market integration degree and non-resource-based cities.(4)The higher the quality of govern-ment data opening,the more obvious the enhancement effect of data-real integration,and the quality of open data,the quality of platform construction,and the strength of policy guarantee affect the value creation effect of public data opening to some ex-tent.Based on the above conclusions,the paper puts forward policy suggestions from the aspects of attaching importance to cultivating a comprehensive data factor market,exploring multi-dimensional data-real integration driving path,tapping the potential of pilot policies,and implementing precise policies according to urban development characteristics,providing refer-ences for better promoting the integrated development of the digital economy and the real economy.
