Overview of Business Model Innovation in the Digital Era :

The relationship between business models and the digital age :In the digital age, business models are no longer simple exchanges of a single product or service, but have evolvedinto more complex and comprehensive organizational forms. The relationship between business models and the digital age is closely linked, and the widespread application of digital technology makes the design, implementation, and innovation of business models more flexible and diverse. Enterprises are no longer just pursuing product sales, but are more focused on building a network of relationships with consumers and expanding business boundaries through digital means[1].

The key to a business model in the digital age lies in integrating digital technology to become the engine of business development. From single offline transactions to diversified services on digital platforms, business models have become more focused on interconnectivity in the digital age. The interweaving of digital information flow, capital flow, and logistics has formed a more efficient business operation system. Enterprises need to deeply understand the embedding of digital technology in order to better grasp the development trajectory of business models.

The Impact of Digital Trends on Business Models :

The digital trend has had a profound impact on business models, not only changing the way businesses operate, but also shaping consumer behavior patterns[2]. With the

popularization of technologies such as smartphones, the Internet of Things, and cloud computing, digitization has

penetrated all aspects of the business ecosystem. Firstly, the digital trend has driven the globalization of business. Through digital technology, enterprises can achieve optimization and

integration of global supply chains, accelerating the internationalization of products and services. Enterprises in the digital age are no longer constrained by geography, butcan more flexibly adapt to the needs of the global market. Secondly, the digital trend has accelerated thepersonalization of business[3]. Through big data analysis, enterprises can gain a deeper understanding of consumer needs and provide personalized customized products and services. This personalization not only satisfies the individual differences of consumers, but also enhances the market competitiveness of enterprises. The digital trend has also spurred the rise of the

Concept and Characteristics of Business Model Innovation :

Business model innovation is a key means for enterprises to embrace change in the digital age. It not only involves innovation in products and services, but also relates to

how enterprises can build sustainable business operation systems. Business model innovation aims to achieve long-term development of enterprises by redefining their core values, profit logic, and cooperation methods[4]. Conceptually, business model innovation is a disruptive reconstruction of traditional business operations. It breaks through the boundaries of traditional industries, breaks down industry barriers, and creates new business logic by recombining resources and capabilities. Business model innovation is not only about product or service innovation, but also about global optimization of the business ecosystem. The characteristics of business model innovation are reflected in multiple aspects. Firstly, it emphasizes user value. By deeply understanding user needs, enterprises can better position the market and provide products and services that meet user expectations. Secondly, business model innovation focuses on digital transformation. Digitization is not only a means, but also, a key path to achieving business model innovation. It can improve enterprise operational efficiency, expand market boundaries, and achieve comprehensive upgrading of business models[5]. Once again, business model innovation

emphasizes win-win cooperation. In the digital age, enterprises establish cooperativerelationships through shared platforms, resource complementarity, and other means, forming a more open and shared business ecosystem.

Background and Characteristics of The New Generation of Digital Platforms in The Information Network:

The rise and development of the new generation of digital platforms in the information network are a vivid example of business model innovation in the digital age. Its development history can be traced back to the widespread application of digital technology and the early stages of internet popularization. This platform is committed to meeting the diverse needs of users by integrating diverse information and services, and building a more open and shared business ecosystem. In the initial stage, the platform mainly focusedon information transmission, providing users with basic functions such as information retrieval and publishing. With the advancement of technology, platforms have gradually achieved a transformation from information transmission to interactive services.

Analysis of the Core Value Chain of Digital Platforms :

The core value chain of digital platforms is a complex and closely connected process that involves multiple links, from the initiation of user needs to the provision of final services.

The construction of this value chain is crucial for the success of the platform, as it directly relates to user experience, service quality, and the platform's competitiveness in the market. Firstly, the platform conducts in-depth analysis of user needs and adopts advanced technologies such as big data to deeply mine user behavior and preferences, forming accurate and detailed user profiles. This stage provides a solid foundation for the implementation of personalized services. Understanding user needs not only stays at the surface level, but also predicts potential user needs through deep data analysis, enabling the platform to more proactively meet userlimitations of traditional commerce through online platforms and providing a more convenient shopping experience. With the popularization of the Internet, the development of e-commerce has undergone an evolution from B2C (business to consumer) to C2C (consumer to consumer) and then to O2O (online to offline). E- commerce platforms provide rich product

information and choices, allowing consumers to shop anytime, anywhere through the internet. This mode promotes the digitalization of supply chain and the optimization of logistics, and improves the circulation efficiency of goods. At the same time, e-commerce platforms better meet the personalized needs of consumers through data analysis, personalized recommendations, and other means, forming a different business logic from traditional retail. The business model innovation of online platforms is also reflected in social and interactive aspects. Some e-commerce platforms have achieved social sharing of products through social media integration, allowing users to interact with friends while shopping, forming a model of social e- commerce. This innovative business model not only expands the boundaries of e- commerce, but also strengthens user awareness and trust in brands and products.

Conclusion :

The new generation digital platform of the Information Network, as a representative of business model innovation in the digital era, has successfully shaped a strong and organic business ecosystem through profound customer value creation, data-driven decision-making processes, multi-channel

integration, and ecosystem construction strategies. The core value chain of the platform has not only achieved significant success in meeting user information needs, but

also enhanced user stickiness through social interaction and e-commerce functions, making it an indispensable part of users. In terms of profit model, the platform is supported by advertising revenue, service fees, and e-commerce transactions, demonstrating a diversified business operation strategy. Looking ahead to the future, with the continuous development of technology and changes in social demands, the new generation of digital platforms in the information

network will continue to face new challenges and opportunities. In terms of technology, the application of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain will further enrich the platform's functions and improve the level of service intelligence. With the increasing demand for personalized services from users, the platform will also continuously optimize data analysis and personalized recommendation algorithms to provide content that better meets user interests and needs.
