Indeed, digitalisation importance is a catalyst for the modernisation of all spheres of economic life and the formation of new models of its participant’s interaction. The article considers the prerequisites for concept formation and highlights four main stages: 1960s-1990s – automation of individual production processes; 1990s-2000s – the development of network technologies and the introduction of Internet commerce; 2000s-2010s – mobile technologies and platform solutions; 2010s-current time – integration of artificial intelligence, big data and blockchain technologies. The research analyses theoretical, effective, structural, technological, resourcing, communicative, motivational, intermediary-service, instrumental, and managerial approaches to digitalisation. Their study allows ones to comprehensively assess the key aspects of the digitalisation of the economy: from increasing productivity to transforming the entire economic structure. The analysis of each approach reveals how digitalisation affects the economy, transforming its models, processes and resources, and reveals its multi-layered nature in modern realities. In addition, the research focuses on the role of digitalisation in establishing of new economic models, innovative ecosystems, and global digital platforms. However, the article considers the social aspects of digitalisation, including the impact on employment, inequality, and social interactions. Moreover, the article examines the impact of digitalisation on globalization and economic integration, its role in reforming government and corporate structures.
