Under the background of the rapid development of global digital economy, big data analysis technology provides new opportunities for the integration of internationalization strategy and social responsibility of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises. Big data analysis helps enterprises accurately identify international market demand, optimize resource allocation, and reduce international business risks by mining massive market information. The internationalization strategy of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises has the characteristics of limited resources and high flexibility, so it is necessary to improve the scientific decision-making with the help of big data analysis. Moreover, corporate social responsibility has become an important consideration for international operations, covering environmental protection, labor rights and interests, community development and other dimensions. Fulfilling social responsibility will not only help to enhance the international image of enterprises but also enhance their long-term competitive advantage. It is found that small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises can integrate the concept of social responsibility into key links such as product research and development, supply chain management, market development, and establish a scientific supervision and evaluation system by formulating social responsibility objectives that match the internationalization strategy. This integration path can realize the unification of economic benefits and social values and provide theoretical reference and practical guidance for small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises to achieve sustainable development in global competition.
