摘要
随着经济社会领域数字化进程的加快,数实融合步入加速期,但中小企业数实融合得到的关注不够。通过调研考察了当前中小企业数实融合的进程,发现实践中展现出基础产业的数实融合程度在加深、数据驱动和技术赋能加速了数实融合进程、连接融通的市场效应在凸显等新趋势和新特点,这些变化对实现均衡和高质量发展具有重要意义。为进一步推进中小企业的数实融合,应完善数字化服务供给体系、塑造开放服务生态、完善支持和监管政策、构建合作治理生态。
With the development of China’s digital economy and the acceleration of digitalization in various fields and industries, digital technology and the real economy(ShuShiRongHe) integration enter an accelerating period. The larger picture is that the integration process of digital technology and the real economy of small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs)lags behind that of large enterprises. However, there have been recent improvements in SMEs’ digital technology and real economy integration processes;because multiple parties, including governments and online platforms, promote such processes with consecutive SMEs digital transformation supporting policies.For a better understanding of SMEs’ situation in digital technology and the real economy integration, and to present improvements in this process, The Digital China Research Institute of the University of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Ant Group Research Institute collaborate on typical SMEs case studies where cases are from many provinces in the east, central and western regions and from various industries such as service sector, agriculture, manufacturing industries, international trade and to name a few. We have found new trends and new characteristics of the current SMEs integration. The main conclusions are as follows.(1) In basic industries such as agriculture and manufacturing, digital and real integration is deepening. First, agricultural SMEs introduce diversified digital technologies to all business stages, such as planting, traceability, logistics, and financial service, to improve their efficiency. Second, digital technology talents tend to return from online platform giants to mining and industrial regions, which has strengthened digital technology and real economy integration of those industries. Third, blockchain begins to influence the real economy and industries. Such influence reaches from the digital world further to the real world, making breakthroughs in its application scenarios, helping the real economy, including SMEs, making good use of data elements and digital assets, and allowing them to participate in business transactions and collaboration more trustfully and efficiently.(2) Data-driven and technological enablement accelerates digital technology and real economy integration. First, data awareness is increasing among SMEs. Industries such as catering, fitness, and footwear industry have introduced digital technology for scientific decision-making in enterprises, flexible manufacturing in the supply chain, and a higher level of collaborative business models in the industrial chain. Second, SMEs in different industries and those in different scales have diverse demands in production processes, supply chains, etc., which make digital service providers, primarily, Software as a Service(SaaS) companies, a vital coordinator between large platforms and SMEs as they root in those industries and are able to meet those diversified demands. This leads to a period of SaaS rapid growth. Third, low-code digital tools are user-friendly and affordable, which meets common expectations of digital tools in the manufacturing and service industries. This leads to a new wave of digital employment.(3) The connectivity produces a prominent market effect. Digital technology has improved the connectivity between regions and communities, lowered the threshold for connection among various market entities, and made social collaboration possible. From the catering industry paying more attention to its business in neighborhoods so that the center area of the industry has been redefined;to industrial clusters in county area achieving the digital transformation;and to some international SMEs which turn the crisis into opportunities, taking advantage of and rising in the trend of international e-commerce. There are changes of SMEs’ digital technology and the real economy integration at the community, county, and global levels and because of its connectivity, we embrace new opportunities of development.With the digital technology enablement, through their digitization practices, SMEs of all industries are influencing the digitization practices of enterprises with larger platforms. They further influence the evolution of the overall pattern of the digital technology and the real economy integration, and have produced some improvements and optimistic trends. These positive changes are of great significance for achieving balanced and high-quality development. To further promote the SMEs’ digital technology and the economy integration, efforts should be made from the following four directions: improving the digital service supply system, promoting an open service ecology, improving the support and regulatory policies, and building a cooperative governance ecology.
