Digital economy grows by 9.7%
Print Edition
China鈥檚 digital economy maintained a high growth rate of 9.7 percent in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic and global economic downturn, said a white paper on China鈥檚 digital economy development released on Sunday.
The growth rate of the digital economy was more than three times that of the GDP, playing its pivotal role in spurring economic development, according to the paper.
The paper was issued by the China Academy of Information and Communication Technology at the fourth Digital China Summit in Fuzhou, capital of southeast China鈥檚 Fujian Province.
It also shows that the scale of China鈥檚 digital economy reached 39.2 trillion yuan (US$6 trillion) last year, accounting for 38.6 percent of the gross domestic product, which effectively supported epidemic prevention and control, as well as economic development. The digital economy in Beijing and Shanghai both accounted for more than half of its regional GDP.
Last year, 13 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions achieved a digital economy scale of more than 1 trillion yuan, with another eight regions exceeding 500 billion yuan in 2020, said the paper.
With its digital economy ranking second in the world, China highlights the digital economy development in its 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) to build a digital China.
