Abstract

Amid the digital wave driving global industrial transformation, the platform economy, as a new organizational form in the digital era, is reshaping the paradigms of production factor allocation and regional economic development. This study overcomes the spatial limitations of traditional resource allocation research by analyzing China’s provincial panel data from 2014 to 2019. Using a dynamic Spatial Durbin Model, we empirically examine how platform economy development affects resource allocation. The results show: (1) A significant positive spatial correlation exists between platform economy growth and resource allocation, indicating that platform economy development promotes geographically optimized resource distribution. (2) Platform economy expansion exhibits spillover effects, where improved resource allocation in one region may exacerbate imbalances in neighboring areas.
