Abstract: This study investigates the complex mechanisms by which digital capabilities influence the sustainable development performance of Guangdong manufacturing enterprises through corporate entrepreneurship. By analyzing digital operational and dynamic capabilities, the study highlights their respective and combined effects on sustainability. Empirical results reveal that digital operational capabilities positively impact sustainability, while digital dynamic capabilities exhibit an inverted U-shaped relationship. Additionally, digital capabilities significantly enhance corporate entrepreneurship, particularly in innovation, new business development, and strategic updates, with organizational readiness moderating these effects. The study underscores the need for balanced digital capabilities and organizational preparation to optimize sustainable development outcomes. This research provides theoretical insights and practical guidance for the digital transformation of manufacturing enterprises, emphasizing the critical role of digital capabilities in achieving sustainable performance.
