In this paper, we try to investigate the contribution of digitalization on economic growth in both developed and developing countries over the period 1990-2020. For this end, different econometric tools are applied on a panel dataset. Overall, we show that the digital technologies seem to significantly and positively affect economic growth in both groups of countries. The digitalization impact level tends to differ across countries. Our empirical results also display that the short- and long-term relationship between information and communication technologies and economic growth is well documented. Such results can be useful for policymakers to enhance the digital economy and provide novel channels to develop adequate policies and promote new institutions. So, benefits from digitalization can lead to realize substantial economic growth.

The purpose of this article is to analyze the sustainability of the Senegalese economy towards a digital transition. To do this, this work focused on modeling the relationship between digital technologies and economic growth. We applied the ARDL (Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag) estimation method to model the long-term and short-term dynamics of the impact of the digital economy on economic growth in Senegal. The results of the estimates, as part of the specification used, lead to the conclusion that there is a positive impact of information and communication technologies (ICT) on economic growth. These results are mainly due to the productive nature of investment and factor productivity.

The priority vector of development of many countries of the world is digital transformation and creation of a hypercompetitive digital economy. The key trend of modern global economic development in all countries of the world is the rapid spread of information and communication, digital technologies and the development of the digital economy, which causes changes in the business environment, transaction methods and the level of connections between individual entities. The digital economy is an innovative dynamic economy based on the active introduction of innovations and information and communication technologies in all types of economic activities and spheres of society, which increases the efficiency and competitiveness of individual companies, the national economy and living standards. In the third wave of globalization, the digital economy plays an important role in the development of countries, the most important factor of which is information and knowledge, as well as ways to access them. Increasingly, the digital economy is intertwined with the traditional economy, making clear demarcations increasingly difficult. The main products of the digital economy are the same goods and services of the traditional economy provided by computer equipment and digital systems such as the global Internet. However, the rapid development of digitalization is becoming a source not only of new opportunities, but also of serious threats and problems for all segments of the population that need to be taken into account. That is, the digitalization of the economy and all spheres of public life, on the one hand, becomes a challenge and threat to established business models and successful strategies of behavior of enterprises in a market economy, on the other - opens new opportunities for improvement and competitive advantage. Digitalization has significant benefits for economic development. Benefits at the level of the whole society include: economic and social effect of digital technologies for business and society; improving the quality of life; increasing the productivity of all social labor; the emergence of new models and forms of business that can increase profitability and competitiveness; increasing the transparency of economic transactions and ensuring the possibility of their monitoring. Key words: digital economy, innovative activity, innovative development, competitiveness, scientific and technological progress, information and communication technologies, information society.

In this article, we focus on the role of Information and Communication Technologies - ICT - to create additional sources of competitive advantage that can help companies to prepare themselves for sustainable growth. First, we discuss the dynamics of ICTs and the ability to generate innovations with a direct impact on business. Then we present the need for greater balance between goals of short and long term on IT projects. In the third part, we discuss how these new technologies have helped to increase the productivity of information professionals as well as to enhance the decision-making process and the satisfaction of the end customer. To conclude, the main challenges that the technology-based companies will have to face in relation to the management of the lifecycle of their technology, is consolidation and simplification of their processes within their computing environments, aiming to increase productivity and develop agile environments that allow the organizations to meet the demands of managing digital information.

The article simulates the impact of the digital technologies’ development on economic growth, which makes it possible to find ways to improve the quality of various spheres of life and identify areas of the economy, the accelerated digitalization of which will ensure an increase in gross domestic product (GDP). The research used groupings of economic activities that directly influence the development of the digital economy. Using the data of regression models, the coefficients of GDP elasticity from the development of the studied sectors were calculated and used to forecast GDP under the development influence of the studied sectors while maintaining the existing trends. The dynamics of the e-commerce market development in Ukraine, the dynamics of production volumes of products (services) of the main types of economic activities in the field of digital transformation of the economy in Ukraine, the dynamics of financial results of enterprises in the information and telecommunications sector in Ukraine, the dynamics of capital investments in the field of information and communications of Ukraine, the dynamics of foreign investment in the development of the type of economic activity “information and telecommunications” in Ukraine, the dynamics of the development of the main areas of digitalization of the Ukrainian economy in 2010-2018 and the dynamics of GDP in actual prices were revealed. A correlation and regression analysis of the impact of the main indicators of the digital technologies sectors development on Ukraine's GDP is also carried out. The forecast extrapolation trend of production growth volumes of products and services in the information sector of Ukraine was built. A forecast of GDP growth in Ukraine has been constructed, taking into account the processes of digitalization of the economy in accordance with certain trends. The forecast dynamics of changes in GDP under the influence of the IT sector development until 2023 was also illustrated. It was found that Ukraine lags significantly behind most developed countries in terms of the level of industrial production development of information and communication technologies and equipment, Ukraine is completely import-dependent in this area. It has been proved that stimulating the development of information and communication technologies has significant prospects for activating digitalization processes in all spheres of the economy and society and increasing GDP.

Currently, the driver of the development of socio-economic systems is their digital transformation. Information and communication technologies have significantly simplified a number of organizational and operational processes of companies in all sectors of the economy. In healthcare, ICTs have found their way into improving communication solutions. However, in general, the digital transformation of this area is much broader, and current trends, problems and prospects for its activation require additional scientific research. The study outlines promising directions for the development of the healthcare sector, based on the introduction of artificial intelligence, robotics, 3D printing and other end-to-end digital technologies. The trends examined in the course of the study made it possible to speak not only about promising directions for the introduction of key digital technologies in the healthcare sector, but also about the presence of a number of limitations. In particular, the activation of these processes in Russia is hindered by gaps in patent law and licensing. The article identifies possible management and regulatory decisions to overcome the existing limitations. The research results can be used as a theoretical basis for managing the development of the healthcare sector in the digital economy.
