In this work, the main trends in research and publication activity in digital transformation
in the world and Ukraine are analyzed using meta- and bibliometric analysis. For this
purpose, bibliometric data on scientific publications on the topic of digital transformations
in the Google Scholar and Scopus databases were selected, which were additionally
analyzed using the VOSviewer software package. Based on filtering the results obtained,
an array was formed that included 366 scientific publications for 2019–2023 in Ukrainian
in the Google Scholar database and 3,703 scientific publications in English for 2020–2023
in the Scopus database. Dynamic time analysis revealed a significant surge of scientific
interest in the topic of digital transformations in recent years, while structural
analysis revealed the multi-industry structure of existing research. The creation
of bibliographic maps of keywords and publication maps allowed us to form an idea
of the main thematic areas of research in the context of digital transformations and
their opinion leaders. The data obtained became the basis for formulating recommendations
for further areas of research in digital transformation, in particular, on the development
of a unified roadmap for the digital transformation of education at different educational
qualification levels and for various specialties. This will contribute to the formation
of a single systemic approach to the digital transformation of Ukraine as a guarantee
for the state’s sustainable development, well-being, strengthening of national security,
speeding up the pace of European integration processes, as well as promoting national
interests at the international level.
