Abstract
Urban industrial intelligence (ININ) has been given great impetus to in China because it may boost urban high-quality development (HQD), which does not overlook the “quality” and “quantity” of development but focuses on the results and benefits of growth in multiple dimensions, including economic development, social equity, and the ecological environment. Three factors are suggested to explain the phenomenon: green innovation, market potential, and industrial pollution. Spatial correlations between ININ and HQD are also worthy to be detected for further strategic policy implications. On the basis of a panel of 278 Chinese cities from 2009 to 2020, this paper focuses on how ININ contributes to HQD, in hopes of advancing the process of sustainable urban development in China. Our results show that ININ is positively correlated with HQD, and significant and positive influence of ININ spillovers are found, which denotes the possibility and benefits of synergetic city development in China.
