SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGION IN THE CONDITIONS OF DIGITALIZATION OF THE ECONOMY (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE ALTAI TERRITORY)

Abstract

The sustainable development of the region depends on many factors that affect the economic situation, investment attractiveness and prospects for the development of the social sphere. It is impossible to achieve positive changes in this direction without the widespread use of digital infrastructure, which is a powerful driver for the dynamic growth of the economy. Information and communication technologies can significantly speed up business processes involving interdepartmental interaction within the framework of state information systems. The creation of new information services allows the population to solve many problems remotely, without personal contact with the relevant organizations. The year 2020 has shown the need and the possibility of introducing elements of digitalization in various spheres of life in the shortest possible time, which did not seem to be a priority and important before. The effectiveness and quality of such solutions turned out to be so high that it allowed us to solve the tasks with the highest efficiency, in the shortest possible time and with a significant reduction in the use of human resources. The development of digital technologies creates a comfortable environment for large, medium and small businesses, as well as for solving urgent problems of the region’s population.
