Abstract: By employing a difference-in-differences (DID) model, this study comprehensively examined the interplay between China's enforcement of anti-monopoly policies in the digital economy sector and its impact on corporate innovation performance. We selected listed companies operating within this industry from 2012 to 2022. The findings underscore the significant positive contribution of anti-monopoly policies in strengthening innovation performance among the sample firms and shed light on the crucial role of anti-monopoly measures in fortifying intellectual property protection mechanisms. This fosters an environment conducive to even higher levels of corporate innovation, providing a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics at play.
