摘 要: 创业创新能够为经济社会发展催生新供给、释放新需求、激发新活力。智慧城市是推动我国新型城镇化发展的战略抓手,在加快培育经济发展新动能的背景下,智慧城市建设能否促进城市创业值得关注。基于2000—2019年中国288个地级市面板数据,在充分考虑智慧城市建设试点的选择性偏差后,利用渐进双重差分模型检验了智慧城市建设对城市创业水平的影响及机制。研究发现,智慧城市建设能够通过人力资本集聚,技术创新,降低企业的交易成本、营业成本和融资成本等路径提高城市创业水平,且该结果在剔除干扰政策和干扰样本后依旧稳健。异质性检验发现,智慧城市建设的创业提升效应在市场化程度、金融发展水平、地理特征、信息技术等禀赋条件较差的城市更加突出,体现出智慧城市建设在促进经济发展中的包容性特征。从各类城市试点政策的协同效应来看,与创新型城市建设、“宽带中国”试点城市建设、国家大数据综合试验区建设等政策重合能够有效提升智慧城市建设的创业促进效应。 |

Abstract: Entrepreneurship and innovation can generate new supply, release new demand, and stimulate new vitality for economic and social development. Smart cities are a strategic lever for promoting the development of new urbanization in China. Against the backdrop of accelerating the cultivation of new drivers of economic development, it is worth paying attention to whether the construction of smart cities can promote urban entrepreneurship. Based on the panel data from 288 prefecture level cities in China from 2000 to 2019, after fully considering the selective bias of smart city pilot projects, and by adopting a progressive double difference model, the study has tested the impact and mechanism of smart city construction on urban entrepreneurship level. Research has found that the construction of smart cities can improve the level of urban entrepreneurship through pathways such as human capital agglomeration, technological innovation, reduction of enterprise transaction costs, operating costs, and financing costs, and this result remains robust even after removing interfering policies and samples. Heterogeneity test finds that the entrepreneurial enhancement effect of smart cities is more prominent in cities with poor endowments such as marketization, financial development, geographical characteristics, and information technology, reflecting the inclusive characteristics of smart city construction in promoting economic development. From the perspective of the synergistic effects of various city pilot policies, overlapping with policies of innovative cities, “Broadband China” pilot cities, and national big data comprehensive experimental zones can effectively enhance the entrepreneurial promotion effect of smart cities. This study provides empirical support for further promoting the construction of smart cities in China and promoting regional entrepreneurship. |
