The tasks of digitalization, the evolution of the industry are described, digital technologies introduced into the processes of the food industry, the introduction of smart production, Big Data technologies, machine vision, additive technologies are listed. Examples of the introduction of digital technologies in different countries are shown. The factors limiting the introduction of digital technologies, lack of personnel, unstable economy, psychological and organizational factors, and lack of international standards in the field of digital transformation are shown. Production statistics are widely used to identify bottlenecks in production, search for hidden reserves and determine the reasons for reducing the efficiency of equipment. Blockchain technologies are beginning to be used in the production of food. Distributed registry systems help to increase the transparency of all stages. Successful implementation requires the interest of all participants in the production chain (from the farmer to the consumer). Digital transformation in Russia began to pay serious attention relatively recently, most of the projects are under implementation. Various innovations introduced in the food production and the food industry are reflected.

Internet of Things (IoT) is an information exchange system between computing devices and people over a network. Because IoT is new to Saudi Arabia (SA), no business model in the public sector provides it, making it difficult to adopt. The results of 55 studies show that one challenge for adopting IoT in SA is a lack of a consistency in designing a dynamic solutions architecture to coordinate the required support to integrate IoT into the SA digital transformation plan. Another challenge is a lack of government standards. This study summarizes the problems that researchers and developers face in managing IoT activities for a dynamic solutions architecture for Saudi Vision 2030. It explores how to define a dynamic solutions architecture for any IT platform, based on design, implementation, experimental validation, and evaluation of the effects on system quality. To begin, this study provides an overview of IoT and details to enable IoT technologies for public and private sectors to help achieve Saudi Vision 2030.

The theories of the information society and the idea of the modern digital state need an interdisciplinary approach. Practical realization of the concept of the digital state issues a challenge to public administration. It might be observed that public entities, while they work on electronic solutions, do not focus adequate attention on their cooperation. In Poland, the scope of digitalization and electronic services provided by public administration has extended. The digital transformation of public institutions is of high importance in the context the human rights. Cybersecurity and some contemporary threats related to the public sphere (cybercrime, cyberterrorism, cyberwar, fake news) trigger the changes in legal systems and public institutions. They also affect people, their cognitive abilities and identity. It is significant that the predictions concerning the information society and the digital state in the context of social changes have been present in the futurological thought. They include the thoughts of Alvin Toffler, Samuel P. Huntington, and Francis Fukuyama. The authors deal with the civilization changes, transformation related to dissemination of modern ICT technology, clash of cultures and their influence on societies and states.

The current stage of digital transformation of public administration involves a combination of technological, economic, and institutional –political factors that are more focused on ensuring organizational readiness to implement changes. The institutional role of change agents is increasing. Digital transformation managers, digital commissioners, and professions that are fundamentally new to the public administration system are designed to ensure the successful implementation of digital technologies in the management process. The article is devoted to the study of the mission of specialists in digital transformation in the implementation of the state program "Digital economy". They are responsible for implementing the principles of agile project management, the core values of open government - service-orientation, self-support, self-organization, and proactive interaction with citizens. The results of the study show that the institutional role of change agents is to enhance reflexivity – the main feature of the digital public governance.

Contemporary communicative platforms welcome and accelerate a socio-anthropological mutation in which public opinion (Habermas, 1995) based on rational individuals and alphabetic culture gives way to a public emotion whose emotion, empathy and sociality are the bases, where it is no longer the reason that directs the senses but the senses that begin to think. The public spheres that are elaborated in this way can only be disjunctive (Appadurai, 2001), since they are motivated by the desire to transgress the identity, political and social boundaries where they have been elevated and restricted. The more the daily life, in its local intension and its global extension, rests on itself and frees itself from projections or infatuations towards transcendent and distant orders, the more the modern territory is shaken by the forces that cross it and pierce it. non-stop. The widespread disobedience characterizing a significant part of the cultural events that take place in cyberspace - dark web, web porn, copyright infringement, trolls, even irreverent ... - reveals the anomic nature of the societal subjectivity that emerges from the point of intersection between technology and naked life. Behind each of these offenses is the affirmation of the obsolescence of the principles on which much of the modern nation-states and their rights have been based. Each situation in which a tribe, cloud, group or network blends in a state of ecstasy or communion around shared communications, symbols and imaginations, all that surrounds it, in material, social or ideological terms, fades away. in the air, being isolated by the power of a bubble that in itself generates culture, rooting, identification: transpolitic to inhabit

E-governance is a paradigm shift over the traditional approaches in Public Administration which means rendering of government services and information to the public by using electronic means. In the past decades, service quality and responsiveness of the government towards the citizens were least important but with the approach of E-Government the government activities are now well dealt. This paper withdraws experiences from various studies from different countries and projects facing similar challenges which need to be consigned for the successful implementation of e-governance projects. Developing countries like India face poverty and illiteracy as a major obstacle in any form of development which makes it difficult for its government to provide e-services to its people conveniently and fast. It also suggests few suggestions to cope up with the challenges faced while implementing e-projects in India.

We are witnessing how new technologies are radically changing the design of organizations, the way in which they produce and manage both their objectives and their strategies, and -above all- how digital transformation impacts the people who are part of it. Even today in our country, many organizations think that digitalizing is having a presence on social networks, a web page or venturing into cases of success in corporate social intranet. Others begin to invest a large part of their budget in training their teams and adapting them to the digital age. But given this current scenario, do we know exactly what the digital transformation of organizations means? It is necessary? Implying? Is there a roadmap to follow that leads to the success of this process? How are organizations that have been born 100% digital from their business conception to the way of producing services through the use of platforms? What role does the organizational culture play in this scenario? The challenge of the digital transformation of businesses and organizations, which is part of the paradigm of the industrial revolution 4.0, is happening here and now in all types of organizations, whether are they private, public or third sector. The challenge to take into account in this process is to identify the digital competences that each worker must face in order to accompany these changes and not be left out of it. In this sense, the present work seeks to analyze the main characteristics of the current technological advances that make up the digital transformation of organizations and how they must be accompanied by a digital culture and skills that allow their successful development. In order to approach this project, we will carry out an exploratory research, collecting data from the sector of new actors in the world of work such as employment platforms in its various areas (gastronomy, delivery, transportation, recreation, domestic service, etc) and an analysis of the main technological changes that impact on the digital transformation of organizations in Argentina.
