Digital transformation as a tool for intensifying inclusive economic growth in the region

   Due to the importance of digitalization processes in the system of strategic and sustainable development of national economies, attention to digital technologies integrated into the eco-environment of territorial systems is beginning to acquire an almost comprehensive character, both on the part of state authorities, and on the part of the business community, households. This is due to many aspects related both to the needs of producing investments in the economy within the framework of new mechanisms and points (technological order) of their attraction and ending with the need to improve the quality of life of the population, in particular, by ensuring the criterion of equal access to services and goods in the consumer sector (the concept of inclusive development of territories). This issue is of particular relevance for developing countries seeking to actively increase their strategic competitive potential, including using and applying various kinds of mechanisms to
stimulate the development of the IT sector. It is no coincidence that the strategic vector of the development of the Russian economy is focused today on strengthening the potential and configuring the system of productive factors that stimulate the digitalization of economic processes. This article is devoted to the desire to substantiate this approach in a regional context, through the prism of descriptive research methods.

   The subject of the study is the relationship regarding the development of an inclusive model of regional development in the context of digitalization and the increasing imbalance of social, economic and institutional systems.

   Based on the review and systematization of the effects caused by the activation of the processes of digitalization of economic relations, the relevance of this tool in the range of mechanisms for stimulating inclusive economic growth in the region is substantiated.
