Abstract
This study aims to analyze the impact of digital technologies on the Chinese economic growth from 2013 to 2018. The research takes into account five digital technologies namely cloud computing, artificial intelligence, robotics, big data and the internet of things. In order to evaluate the role of each of the five digital technologies on china economy, we run a linear regression model of each of them with the country GDP. the results reveal that despite difference in their level of significance, Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Internet of Things and Big Data have a positive significant impact on the country GDP. Keywords: Digital technologies, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, robotics, big data, internet of things, Chinese economic growth.

Highlights
The term digital economy was first coined by Don Tapscott in 1995 in his book The Digital Economy: Promise and Peril in the Age of Networked Intelligence
Many authors tend to define digital economy as being solely related to information and communications technologies (ICT) .For example Margaret Rouse first posed that the digital economy is the worldwide network of economic activities, commercial transactions and professional interactions that are enabled by information and communications technologies (ICT).Besides some studies claim that Digital economy could be summed up as the economy based on internet transactions and activities, this idea led to terms such: the internet economy, the web economy or the new economy

Summary
The term digital economy was first coined by Don Tapscott in 1995 in his book The Digital Economy: Promise and Peril in the Age of Networked Intelligence. Many authors tend to define digital economy as being solely related to information and communications technologies (ICT) .For example Margaret Rouse first posed that the digital economy is the worldwide network of economic activities, commercial transactions and professional interactions that are enabled by information and communications technologies (ICT).Besides some studies claim that Digital economy could be summed up as the economy based on internet transactions and activities, this idea led to terms such: the internet economy, the web economy or the new economy All these definitions have deep limitations since the Digital Economy goes far beyond the sole concept of bits, internet connectivity and ICT. The digital economy in its whole concept and consideration is definitely a key engine of growth, but the question still remaining is the one about how each of the digital technologies analyzed separately impacts the Chinese GDP growth
