This study investigates the impact of digital technology administrative penalties (DTAP) on big data technology innovation (BDTI) in China. Using data from 281 Chinese cities (2008-2020), the study finds a positive correlation between DTAP intensity and BDTI. The authors posit three mechanisms: normative impact (conducive business ecosystem), incentive mechanism (increased long-term investment), and deterrence mechanism (regulated competitive market). The effect is stronger in first-tier cities and those with less developed digital factor-driven industries.
