Amman, Aug. 31 (Petra) -- China’s digital sector generated $3.08 trillion in revenue during the first half of 2026, marking a 13.6% year-on-year increase, according to data released by the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.

The data, reported by Xinhua News Agency, showed that the sector's profits increased 19.3% year-on-year. The increase was attributed to rising domestic demand for artificial intelligence products and rapid growth in exports.

The profit growth rate was 10.3 percentage points higher than that recorded during the same period last year, the agency reported.

Xinhua reported that 16 national-level high-end manufacturing industrial parks have been established across China to date.

The added value of the electronics industry rose 14.8% year-on-year during the first half of the year.
