East China’s Jiangsu Province has strengthened its top-level design and accelerated the development of the digital economy, as is evidenced by the rapid growth momentum of its digital economy, accelerated innovation and integration, and the continuous emergence of new business forms.
Residents in Wuxi city can handle more than 170 services such as government affairs, transportation, medical treatment, etc. by carrying a mobile phone when you go out. This is the smart life scene resulting from the "Lingxi app" launched by Wuxi last year.
Different from ordinary city service software, "Lingxi app" opens up the digital interface of all municipal services and establishes an "electronic certificate database" for all citizens.
Citizens traveling in the city can achieve one-code access without the need to carry physical documents such as ID cards, medical insurance cards, and transportation cards.
The construction of a digital city is inseparable from the connection and flow of data. In order to link more "data islands" and "data chimneys", Wuxi set up a special big data administration in 2019 to coordinate the management of the city's data assets.
From the medical diagnosis of major hospitals to the real-time data of the traffic road network, the Big Data Administration has gathered a large number of cities to build a "digital Wuxi", and at the same time innovatively open all kinds of desensitization data to the whole society, trying to fully dig into and release the value of data.
Since last year, Jiangsu has issued the "Opinions on Promoting the Development of the Digital Economy", proposing to make every effort to build digital facilities upgrades, digital innovation leadership, digital industry integration, digital social sharing, digital regulatory governance, and digital open cooperation to promote the development of Jiangsu's digital economy to a new level.
In 2020, Jiangsu reported steady growth in its digital industry. In the first three quarters, the province recorded 1.9 trillion yuan and 774 billion yuan in its electronic information manufacturing industry and the software and information service industry, up 6% year on year and ranking among the top in the country.
