China’s National Bureau of Statistics reports that core digital-economy industries contributed 10.5% of GDP in 2024.
Source and scope#
The figure is for 2024 and for core industries. It should not be relabelled as the size of every digitally enabled activity or as a 2026 result.
Checking a comparison#
When comparing another estimate, record its reference year, currency, unit and definition. A broader measure and this core-industry measure may cover different activity. Do not present a forecast as an observed outcome or infer an investment return from a GDP share.
