Today, as the construction of digital China is accelerating, digital economy, digital industry and digital technology innovation have become topics of common concern for enterprises and the whole society. From a global perspective, the digital economy is a key element related to the future economic development pattern, and it is also an important weight that affects competition and cooperation among countries.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China pointed out: "Strengthen the main position of enterprises in scientific and technological innovation, and give full play to the leading and supporting role of scientific and technological backbone enterprises." Taking the deep integration of digital technology and the real economy as the main line, we will jointly promote digital industrialization and industrial digitization, empower the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, cultivate new industries, new formats and new models, and continue to make China's digital economy stronger, better and bigger." In 2023, The "Overall Layout Plan for the Construction of Digital China" issued by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council also clarified the important goal of "strengthening the key capabilities of digital China and building a self-reliant and self-reliant digital technology innovation system".
The promulgation of a series of national-level policies not only shows the normalization trend of enterprise digital intelligence upgrading, but also means that the digital intelligence transformation of enterprises and the development of digital intelligence business are ushering in a new golden age.
After years of evolution, enterprise digital intelligence has developed from the initial "partially promoting business quality and efficiency" to "using technology to fully empower business innovation activities". The construction of digital intelligence capabilities is gradually in line with the strategic goals of enterprises fusion. The widespread promotion of technologies such as cloud computing has led to a rapid increase in large-scale cloud migration of application systems, as well as cloud-native development and cloud-native delivery activities. The innovative application of emerging information technology in various industries has continuously achieved breakthroughs, allowing many business leaders to see the unlimited growth potential of the digital economy in the era of digital intelligence. 2023 will be an inflection point for enterprise transformation, and enterprises will enter the era of digital business from the era of digital transformation.
The era of digital business has the following characteristics:
- Enterprises implement digital first strategy
- Supported and driven by directly involved CEO and individual executives
- Compete with technology
- Digital innovation initiatives deliver visible results at scale
- The value brought by digitization can be quantified
The digital business era and the digital priority strategy will bring significant practical influence: the business strategy of enterprises will be upgraded from pilot innovation to sustainable innovation; enterprises' investment in digital and intelligent transformation will also continue to grow, especially after 2023; In terms of revenue, the revenue from digital business models will gradually exceed the revenue from traditional business models.
To put digital first and promote development with intelligence, enterprises need to rely on a sound digital intelligence platform system to build a long-term sustainable digital development pattern driven by data and scenarios . This is reflected in internal and external innovation activities including technology, business, and operations, and also means the redefinition of a series of values related to the company's business, finance, users, ecology, and social responsibilities.
In the era of comprehensive digital business, enterprises, especially traditional enterprises, must make full use of technology and experience in advanced digital practice fields. In the process of digital innovation, we should pay attention to the systematic and systematic digital intelligence base capacity building to promote the overall coordinated progress. As an important economic development subject, large enterprises have the advantage of integrated practical experience related to multiple elements such as technology, business, and operation, and should play a leading role in driving the transformation of enterprise groups.
Technical advantages: Starting from their own large-scale business needs, large digital enterprises have sufficient willingness to deploy and apply new technologies including cloud computing, big data, blockchain, and mobile Internet, so as to rapidly improve their capabilities in the development process. basic ability issues. At the same time, in the process of deep integration of technology and business, many achievements have been digitally precipitated, and a large-scale output capability carried by a tool platform has been formed.
Business advantages: In the process of exporting technology and products, large-scale digital enterprises face the core issues related to "industrial digitalization" and "digital industrialization". Enterprises must conduct in-depth exploration of different industries and rely on digital capabilities to respond to the transformation and innovation demands of industry customers in the development process of strategy, organization, business, and operation.
Operational advantages: In the era of rapid development of the digital economy, digital operations play a vital role in cost reduction, efficiency enhancement, innovation and sustainable development of customers in various industries. Large-scale digital enterprises generally have the ability to carry out digital inventory of various enterprise core assets including data, conduct fine-grained monitoring of various states in the operation process of enterprises, and even conduct in-depth analysis and insight through intelligent means. These operational advantages can be widely used for reference by customers in other industries.
Therefore, large enterprises bear the important responsibility of implementing the digital priority strategy, developing the digital economy, responding to future market storms, and achieving sustainable development. Long-term investment in digitalization and upgrading the digital and intelligent base of enterprises is one of the key drivers for these enterprises to win sustainable competitiveness.
