Abstract
THE DIGITALIZATION PROCESS OF SOCIETY INVOLVES THE ACCELERATION OF THE WAY WE LIVE OUR LIVES, A DIRECT EFFECT OF IT IS THE INCREASE OF THE SPEED WITH WHICH DECISIONS ARE MADE. THE TERMS “DIGITALIZATION” AND “DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION” ARE ALWAYS UNDERSTANDED AS TWO UMBRELLA CONCEPTS THAT COMBINE BOTH TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES AND THOSE WHICH APPEAR IN SOCIETY ON A LARGE SCALE. DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION REFERS TO THE ACCELERATED PROCESS, WHICH IS CARRIED OUT ON A GLOBAL SCALE OF TECHNICAL ADAPTATION AS A RESULT OF THE DIGITALIZATION OF INDIVIDUALS, SOCIETY AND NATIONS, WHICH CAN BE PERCEIVED SIMILAR TO GLOBALIZATION. BOTH TH E ADMINISTRATIVE AND THE ECONOMIC PROCESS ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO MANAGE WITHOUT THE USE OF DATA AND INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES, GIVEN THE FACT THAT, IN AN INTERCONNECTED WORLD, IT OCCUPIES MORE AND MORE SPHERES, WHILE ALSO CREATING NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. ALSO, GLOBALIZATION, TRANSFORMATION OF FINAL CONSUMER BEHAVIOR AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION RADICALLY REMODELS THE GLOBAL ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL SYSTEM. AN EFFICIENT DIGITAL ECONOMY CAN OPEN OPPORTUNI TIES FOR THE CREATION OF NEW BUSINESS MODELS AND A NEW DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BOTH IN THE PRIVATE AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION SECTORS.
