INTRODUCTION
Modernity has been d escribed as an “age of digital technology”,
penetrating deeper and deeper into all areas of human life and activities. The topic
of digital transformation or digitalisation has become one of the most topical in
both the acad emic and economic-political spheres (Kraus et al., 2021; Nadkarni
& Prugl, 2021; Verhoef et al., 2 021). This is due to some benefits that
digitalisation brings to economic, industrial, business, and societal growth in
developed and developing countries, as well as many possible threats that are
generated during its implementation (Myovella et al., 2020; Hai et al., 2021 ;
ElMassah & Mohieldin, 2020). Moreover, digitalisation plays an important role
in sustainable development and the circular economy, which are among the most
relevant concepts in most economies and policies worldwide (Agrawal et al.,
2022; Misiuk et al., 2020).
Digitalisation, in its most general form, can be understood as the process
of shifting from traditional ways of transmitting information to digital ones, which
involves high-tech devices such as extra powerful computers, smartphones, and
laptops, linking them electronically in cyb erspace (Ondashuly, 2018;
Honcharenko & Shyhal, 2021). Today, digitalisation is widely applied in the
economy, giving rise to the concept of a “digital economy” in which the primary
resource is information. The definition of the digital economy was first articulated
at the 2016 G20 Leaders’ Summit in Hangzhou: the digital economy derives from
a range of economic activities aimed at effective applications in communications
technology and improving the economic structure (Pan et al., 2022). The concept
of the digital economy can be better described as a vast area of economic activity
where digitised information and knowledge are the main factors of production,
electronic information networks are the space for such activity, and information
