Towards sustainability through Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0

Abstract

This section provides general information about actual development directions of the concepts of Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0 in context of sustainable development. For the analysis of relations with sustainability of these concepts we will estimate their relations with sustainable development goals (SDGs). Also, we were investigating the case study of Russia in the context of transformation to Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0. As the research results, we conclude, that further success of the digital and socio-economic transformation will directly depend on the effectiveness and consistency of the joint efforts of government structures, the business community, and social institutions, in addressing the challenges of sustainable development of the national economy.
