Research on the Impact of Digital Infrastructure Construction on Urban Innovation Quality

Abstract

Digital infrastructure construction is advancing rapidly around the world and has become an important force in promoting urban innovation and economic development. Digital infrastructure includes technologies such as 5G networks, data centers, the Internet of Things, and cloud computing, which provide cities with efficient information transmission and processing capabilities. Modern cities are gradually relying on these technologies to enhance their innovation capabilities and competitiveness. Digital infrastructure is not only a technical support for urban development, but also a key factor in improving the quality of urban innovation. my country is in a stage of rapid urbanization and digitalization. With the in-depth advancement of new infrastructure construction, many cities have made significant progress in the field of digital infrastructure. However, there are still large differences in the level of digital infrastructure construction and application among different cities, which directly affects the innovation quality and overall development of cities. Cities such as Shenzhen and Hangzhou have shown strong innovation capabilities and economic vitality through the vigorous development of digital infrastructure, becoming models of the digital economy. Studying the impact of digital infrastructure construction on urban innovation quality is not only of great theoretical significance, but also of practical application value. From a theoretical perspective, exploring how digital infrastructure affects urban innovation quality through information circulation, knowledge sharing, enterprise R&D support, and optimization of the innovation ecosystem will help enrich and deepen the theoretical system in the field of digital economy and innovation management. From a practical perspective, the research results can provide a scientific basis for policymakers, and at the same time provide practical guidance for urban planners and managers, promoting the sustainable development of cities and improving their innovation capabilities.
