Abstract

Digital governance talent has become a strategic resource for enterprises seeking resilient growth in an economy shaped by data, platforms, and artificial intelligence. Drawing on digital governance theory and collaborative innovation theory, this paper examines enterprise-oriented talent cultivation through a qualitative review of relevant scholarship and common educational practices. It identifies three connected problems: limited understanding of the transition from digital management to digital governance, a persistent gap between management theory and corporate governance practice, and a mismatch between interdisciplinary knowledge requirements and universities' teaching capacity. In response, the paper proposes a coordinated cultivation framework that updates strategic concepts, reconstructs the knowledge system, and develops integrative capabilities through university-enterprise cooperation, project-based learning, faculty development, and authentic governance scenarios. The analysis suggests that effective programs must combine digital literacy with strategic judgment, cross-functional collaboration, compliance awareness, and ethical responsibility, rather than treating technology training as an isolated curricular component. This framework supports adaptation in changing business environments.
