Summary/Abstract: The main objective of the report is to present opportunities for improving regional specialization by introducing integrated actions to digitize the regional economy, defining terms and the conceptual apparatus. Several studies have been analyzed, providing information on GDP growth opportunities through digitization of the economy and municipal administration. The role of the public sector in carrying out the transformation through the use of digital technologies to achieve faster and smoother processes is outlined. An analysis of the size and growth rate of digital economies at regional level in Central and Eastern European countries is presented. The possibilities of digital technology companies to help shape regional strategies for smart specialization are discussed. The author seeks to regionalize the territorial investment approach so as to achieve better territorial development.
