Abstract
Currently, digital transformation is at the heart of the discussion among scientists, politicians, and manufacturers. New technologies are aimed at stimulating economic development. They are designed to be user-friendly and affordable, with the possibility of customization. Despite the many advantages, the spread of digital innovation is slow and not always useful. Practice shows that digitalization does not ensure rapid growth in productivity and income. A clear understanding of the constraints is necessary for decision-makers to choose appropriate digitalization strategies. The study aims to identify barriers and enablers that contribute to digital transformation. The hypothesis is that the current industrialization, innovation, and a favorable social environment are essential components of successful development. The analysis draws upon official statistics, recent observations on indicators, methodologies for sustainable development, and approaches to measuring the competitiveness of industrial indicators and the human development index. Even though Russia holds a relatively high position in the world ranking of countries, there is a need to study regional disparities in the indicators of industrial production, innovation, and social development. The research results are relevant both at the level of business owners and national policy. Differentiation of existing socio-economic ecosystems can become the basis for effective enterprise management and state support programs.
