Abstract

The development of digital business
ecosystems is one of the key directions of modern economic transformation, particularly in the field
of information and communication technologies (ICT). Digital business ecosystems create new
models of interaction between companies, consumers, regulators, and technological platforms,
enabling innovative approaches to business management.
This article examines the key factors influencing the formation and effective functioning of
digital business ecosystems in the ICT sector. The main technological aspects are identified,
including the implementation of artificial intelligence, blockchain, cloud computing, and big data
analytics, which contribute to the automation of business processes and the enhancement of digital
security. The economic factors, such as network effects, access to investment, and financial stability
of digital platforms, are also analyzed.
Special attention is paid to the social and regulatory aspects affecting the development of digital
business ecosystems. In particular, the role of digital literacy, changes in consumer behavior,
cybersecurity challenges, and the necessity of improving legal and regulatory frameworks are
discussed.
As a result of the study, recommendations are formulated for the further development of digital
business ecosystems, including strategies for optimizing business models, integrating advanced
digital technologies, and ensuring the competitiveness of companies in the global digital economy.
The research findings may be useful for scholars, entrepreneurs, government regulators, and all
stakeholders involved in digital business ecosystems and information and communication
technologies.
Keywords: digital business ecosystems, information and communication technologies, digital
platforms, network effects, blockchain, artificial intelligence, cloud computing.
