Abstract：Based on the absorptive capacity theory, this study explores the impact of business environment digitization on open innovation of enterprises by constructing a quasi-natural experiment with China’s “smart city” construction. The results show that business environment digitization significantly improves the level of open innovation of enterprises, and R&D intensity as well as the degree of digital transformation of enterprises can enhance this positive effect. Mechanism analysis shows that business environment digitalization effectively promotes the open innovation of enterprises by increasing the knowledge abundance and knowledge flow in the regions where the enterprises are located.
