Throughout the development of the productive forces, the birth of digital technology was the second watershed after the steam engine: the latter ushered in the era of energy use, while the former expanded the boundaries of intelligence as never before.
In the past, human intelligence was the core of the integration of all factors of production, and its limitations and high costs became obstacles restricting the leapfrog development of productive forces; now, digital technology is gradually replacing the human brain with unimaginable computing, memory, learning and transmission capabilities, which will greatly promote the leap in production efficiency.
Not only that, relying on the continuous iteration of artificial intelligence and computing power, digital technology is being more widely and deeply applied to innovation and R&D in almost all fields such as industry, finance, retail, healthcare, agriculture, and entertainment.
As an inevitable product of the pressure of the human development cycle, which cannot be stopped and reversed, digital technology is accelerating the subterrence of the underlying logic of economic, social and cultural development. It is obvious that the future business model must be deeply bound to digital technology, and the competition for productivity between countries will also be carried out from the research and development of digital technology, and the promotion and integration of digital technology to the industrial chain.
At the enterprise level, digital technology is not only the driving force and organizational force, but also the core of building technical and ecological barriers. The continuous development or integration of digital technology applications will become the only way for enterprises to face future challenges and win market competition.
Standing at the key node of accelerating the innovation and development and integrated application of China's digital technology, Forbes China officially launched the "2024 Forbes China Digital Technology Leading Enterprises 30 Selection", aiming to find a group of enterprises with outstanding performance, representativeness, great influence or potential in the field of digital technology, while setting a benchmark in this field, by showing their innovative characteristics and leading models, bringing inspiration to the market and more enterprises, and injecting new impetus into the sustainable development of various industries.

This selection is another important practice of Forbes China in the field of digital technology, and will also build a broad international display and communication platform for participating companies. We hope that companies interested in leading the future will actively participate.
