Focusing on the cultural and creative industries in Zhejiang Province, this study explores innovation pathways driven by symbolic knowledge. Research indicates that despite rapid industrial development, multiple challenges, such as weak innovation commercialization capabilities, insufficient regional coordination, and an underdeveloped ecosystem, persist. To this end, the study proposes an integrated development framework: leveraging digital technology to empower knowledge transformation, refining industrial chains and talent mechanisms, and implementing a global brand strategy. This initiative aims to promote Zhejiang's transformation from a "major province for cultural creativity" to a "strong province for cultural innovation."
