This study investigates the dual role of digitization and sustainability in driving global economic transformations. It highlights how digital technologies contribute to innovation, productivity, and efficiency across various economic sectors, while sustainability ensures long-term environmental and social resilience. The research analyses the interplay between these two forces, identifying key challenges such as digital divides, environmental burdens, and regulatory gaps, alongside opportunities in productivity growth, job creation, and green innovations. The study proposes strategic solutions including investment in clean technologies, policy reform, and international cooperation to enable a sustainable digital transition. Data from international reports and sectoral case studies support the analysis. The findings underscore that a synergistic approach to digitalization and sustainability is imperative for inclusive and future-proof economic development.
