Abstract

Leveraging a comprehensive panel dataset from Chinese prefecture-level cities spanning 2009–2023, this study systematically evaluates the impact of public data platform development on regional economic growth. The results indicate that the establishment of public data platforms significantly promotes regional economic development. It achieves this primarily by enhancing firm innovation and optimizing the institutional business environment, which in turn provides market participants with stable expectations. Heterogeneity analysis further shows that the policy effect of data openness is more pronounced in regions with more developed digital infrastructure, larger urban scale, and higher levels of marketization.
