Abstract:
The study of the development of digitalization of regional economic systems in the context of military aggression and post-war recovery of territories is an urgent and important task for the State today. The European vector of digital technology development, which Ukraine has chosen and is implementing, despite the difficulties, has allowed to significantly improve the development of the digital sector in our country. A study of the state of digital transformation of the regions of Ukraine in the pre-war period was carried out using the Digital Transformation Index, which made it possible to identify the leading and outsider regions in the development of digital content and to identify the strengths and weaknesses for each region as part of the calculation of the relevant sub-indices. First of all, such innovations in digital technologies concern the public sector, which, based on the development of software products (such as Diia), has allowed society to significantly improve and speed up the processes of obtaining a certain list of public services online. Development of the software product Hromada 4.0. for local self-government bodies, has allowed the introduction of new digital technologies in them to ensure equal access of the population to the necessary public services. The main focus of this program is digital solutions to improve municipal governance, increase cybersecurity of data. The development of the «EU4Digital: Supporting the Digital Economy and Society in the Eastern Partnership» program has improved the lives of the population by stimulating economic growth, creating new jobs, supporting small and medium-sized businesses by taking advantage of the benefits of the EU Digital Single Market for Ukraine. The study of the development of digitalization of regional economic systems allowed to identify four areas of obstacles (institutional, infrastructural, ecosystem, and e-government) that hinder this development. Six directions for the development of regional economic systems on the basis of digitalization are proposed, which will increase access to public services for more segments of the population, that should simplify the procedure for obtaining such services and reduce the level of bureaucracy in our country.

Keywords: digitalization, regional economic systems, post-war recovery, development.
