Abstract

The relevance of the problem studied in the article is due to the fact that modern economic conditions are characterized by the active influence of the processes of Informatization and digitalization, which affect investment processes, but the issues of existing differentiation and inequality of regions in development, including digital, require more careful consideration. The main goal of implementing the concept of spatial development of Russia, approved in February 2019, is [1] to overcome inequality in the level of economic development of regions. Inequality in the economic development of regions is largely due to the territorial features formed under the influence of trends in the spatial development of the country. The presence of significant regional differentiation inevitably leads to the formation of digital inequality in regions. The purpose of the article is to study the investment aspects of digital inequality of entities in the Ural-Siberian macro-region and their overcoming in the General context of regional differentiation. The leading method in the study is the method of comparative analysis, which characterizes the dynamics of the development of subjects based on comparative values. The article presents the results of analysis and evaluation of a number of indicators that characterize the investment policy of regions in the field of ICT, as well as indicators that allow us to determine the differentiation of macroregion subjects, both in terms of their overall economic development and in the field of digital inequality. Based on the analysis of indicators reflecting regional development trends in the field of information, communication and digital technologies, it is concluded that in general the macroregion has a certain potential for development in the field under study.
