Digital transformation, often characterized as one of the main phenomena facing the current economy and society, exerts a strong influence on the business environment.

Rethinking strategies at company level in this regard becomes one of the main requirements in order to maintain a competitive position in the market. Every company should change the way of action due to the market dynamism. Thus, involving digitalization can make the difference in the entrepreneurial result(s): profits or losses. Building efficient, digitally oriented strategies, firstly implies understanding of what the digital transformation of business management entails. Given the previous mentioned aspects, the present paper aims to analyze how digital progress influences business management and to identify to what extent these changes can lead to increased competitiveness of companies. The research results derive from performing an exhaustive bibliographic study, which will allow a correct evaluation of the current state of research in the areas of interest.
