Transformacja cyfrowa w przemyśle Unii Europejskiej – ujęcie przestrzenne

Abstract

Manufacturing sector is playing an important role in shaping the European digital single market due to a shift in the EU industrial policy after the recient financial crisis that focuses on: increasing European innovations for industry, digital transformation of domestic enterprises (Industry 4.0), reindustrialisation perceived as an increased share of manufacturing in the EU GDP value added. However, it is mainly characterized by framework nature as it sets similar goals to all Member States, which may result in increasing further disparities in their innovative potential. It could be stated that spatial divergence caused by technological innovation will negatively affect the functioning of the EU economy as an integrated entity. Therefore, the following paper aims to determine the spatial dispersion of industrial digital transformation in the European Union and the impact of industrial policy on its cohesion in the context of creating innovation and absorbing digital technologies.
