Abstract: Abstract The improvement of innovation ability is the key for enterprises to win in the market competition. Digital transformation and upgrading is a channel for enterprises to enhance their innovation capabilities. This approach can generate value by generating digitized information and knowledge. Therefore, digitalization is an important part of the current economic development. As a new economic form, the digital economy takes digital technology as the core driving force and promotes the digital transformation of the global economy. China attaches great importance to the development of the digital economy. General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized that the digital economy must become a new driving force for China’s economic development. This article uses applied theory and empirical research methods and finds that digital transformation has a significant positive impact on corporate innovation, and can enhance the willingness and intensity of corporate innovation, especially in large enterprises or state-owned enterprises Furthermore, this effect is generated through intermediaries related to R&D expenses. Therefore, more enterprise value can be created.
