Purpose Digital transformation (DX) is advancing in the post-pandemic era, yet regional disparities remain pronounced. This uneven distribution may be attributed to cities’ doing business environment. As environment comprises various components, we aim explore how these components interact affect local firms' DX, thereby identifying which configurations of contribute DX. Design/methodology/approach The our study contains seven components: public services, government, legal, innovation, market, human resources and financial services environments. We adopt a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis approach determine necessary sufficient conditions for high-level sample consists enterprises listed on China Science Technology Innovation Board. Findings Firstly, single component unnecessary firms produce high- or non-high-level Secondly, four explain DX three general types: (1) dominated by cost hypothesis, (2) synergised resource hypotheses (3) hypothesis. Thirdly, configurational paths generating firms’ are asymmetric only one configuration will lead Originality/value presents ground-breaking exploration mechanisms driving terms city-level its dual functions. Additionally, elucidate reasons development.

As an important driving force for economic growth, digital trade provides opportunities urban green development. Using city-level data in China from 2005 to 2020, we take the cross-border e-commerce comprehensive pilot zone (CBEC) as a policy shock construct spatial difference-in-difference (SDID) model, which is adapted quantitatively examine carbon reduction effects and impact mechanisms of CBEC policy. The results confirm that implementation significantly reduces emissions (CE) cities about 4.5%, mainly due resource allocation efficiency promotion, industrial structure upgrading, technology boosting. Meanwhile, there significant spillover effect, resulting 3.9% CE decrease neighboring cities. In addition, has more effect resource-based high-degree information Our provide evidence accelerate development

Abstract With advanced science and digital technology, transformation has become an important way to promote the sustainable development of enterprises. However, existing research only focuses on linear relationship between a single characteristic transformation. In this study, we select data Chinese A-share listed companies from 2010 2020, innovatively use machine learning method explore differences in predictive effects multi-dimensional features enterprises based Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) theory, thus identifying main drivers affecting fitting models with stronger effect. The study found that: first, by comparing traditional regression models, it is that prediction ability ensemble earning generally higher than tradition measurement method. For sample selected research, XGBoost LightGBM have strong explanatory high accuracy. Second, compared technical driving force environmental force, organizational greater impact. Third, among these characteristics, equity concentration executives’ knowledge level dimension greatest impact Therefore, enterprise managers should always pay attention decision-making role level.
