Abstract: 本文基于2010~2022年A股信息技术企业的样本数据，采用双向固定效应模型，探讨了科技金融对信息技术企业创新的影响。实证结果表明，科技金融对信息技术企业的创新具有显著的促进作用，且这一结论在经过一系列的稳健性检验后依然成立。通过机制检验，研究发现科技金融通过缓解融资约束来推动企业创新。由于信息技术企业通常面临高研发成本和长周期，科技金融能够提供资金支持，从而减轻其资金压力，促进技术研发和创新活动。此外，异质性分析显示，科技金融对信息技术企业创新的促进作用在国有企业和西部地区企业中更为显著。本研究为科技金融与信息技术企业的深度融合及创新发展提供了新视角，并为政策制定和实践提供了实证支持。Based on the sample data of A-share information technology companies from 2010 to 2022, this paper uses a two-way fixed effects model to explore the impact of technology finance on innovation in information technology companies. The empirical results indicate that technology finance has a significant promoting effect on the innovation of information technology companies, and this conclusion remains valid after a series of robustness tests. Through mechanism testing, the study finds that technology finance promotes enterprise innovation by alleviating financing constraints. In addition, given the high R&D costs and long cycles typically faced by information technology companies, technology finance can provide financial support to alleviate their financial pressure and promote technological research and development as well as innovation activities. Moreover, heterogeneous analysis shows that the positive effect of technology finance on information technology company innovation is more pronounced in state-owned enterprises and companies in the western regions. This study offers a new perspective on the deep integration and innovative development of technology finance and information technology companies, and provides empirical support for policy-making and practice.
