The Beijing Digital Economy Development Report is one of our academy’s flagship think tank publications. It is produced by a research team jointly formed by experts from our academy and institutions such as the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Tsinghua University, the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, the National Industrial Information Security Development Research Center, China Unicom Research Institute, Beijing Technology and Business University, and Visteon Corporation, who continuously track and systematically study the development of Beijing’s digital economy. Going forward, the research team will continue to focus on issues related to Beijing’s digital economy and the development of Beijing as a global benchmark city for the digital economy. It will further deepen both theoretical research and applied policy research, fully leveraging the role of the capital’s new high-end think tank in social science research and policy advisory work, and contribute wisdom and strength to advancing Beijing’s development as a global benchmark city for the digital economy and supporting the high-quality development of its digital economy.
