“…Those factors could explain why some experts struggled to identify and describe automated processes in their respective environments. Regarding the manufacturing sector, the interviews revealed trends that reflect past findings ( [26], [27]), namely that collecting data and using digital technologies have so far been aimed at controlling and optimizing plants, not automating or autonomizing them. However, as interviewees at the automotive electronics manufacturer N and plastics industry company J revealed and in contrast to published findings ( [26]), investments are being made in not only lower-cost technologies such as cloud computing but also in innovative, automated production lines (Experts J and N).…”

The increasing digitalization of business and society has prompted drastic changes within enterprises and confronted them with enormous challenges. In our exploratory interview study, we examined the impact of digital technologies on how employees work in companies as well as the specific opportunities and challenges that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) face as a result. On the whole, interviews revealed that digitalization has already triggered an array of changes in how employees work. Even so, the extent of each change and the perception of technological trends overall have varied among both employees and companies depending on their context. In response to those changes, the SMEs interviewed have applied a wide range of tools and strategies that have allowed them to exploit the opportunities offered by digital technologies and overcome the associated challenges.

“…There is also considerable literature investigating the interactions between Big Data and specific industries to achieve industrial sustainability such as the service industry in [156], agri-food industry in [157], and manufacturing industry [158] to name a few. Similarly, authors across the world have attempted to present the status of the fourth industrial revolution by country and region, for instance, Korea in [159], Germany [160], China [161] and India [162], etc.…”

The launch of the United Nations (UN) 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015 was a historic event, uniting countries around the world around the shared agenda of sustainable development with a more balanced relationship between human beings and the planet. The SDGs affect or impact almost all aspects of life, as indeed does the technological revolution, empowered by Big Data and their related technologies. It is inevitable that these two significant domains and their integration will play central roles in achieving the 2030 Agenda. This research aims to provide a comprehensive overview of how these domains are currently interacting, by illustrating the impact of Big Data on sustainable development in the context of each of the 17 UN SDGs.

“…The term "remote work" simply means any work that does not require an employee to commute to an office. Remote work thus means professional duties performed from home or any location outside of formal employer's premises (such as a café or a co-working space) on a full-time or near full-time basis (four or more days a week), very often [55,96,97]. The increasing prevalence of full-time remote work is changing the dynamics in local contexts and creates new paths in regional development [98].…”

The Industry 4.0 Revolution that is taking place nowadays means that organizations face not only new opportunities, but also challenges related to the identification of their role in creating a modern smart world. The economies of many countries are under the significant and growing influence of various types of organizations, not only strong international business corporations, but also, more and more often, smaller but intelligent ones called smart organizations IR 4.0. Due to their unique characteristics, intelligent organizations are better able than others to cope with technological breakthroughs, social, and cultural problems as well as to compete effectively and develop in an environmentally sustainable way. With their growing potential, they are strengthening the economies of their countries of origin and daily operation. Their growing role is also visible in the processes of shaping competitiveness and achieving the sustainable development objectives of the European Union (EU). The countries that are able to organize an environment on their territory that is conducive to the smart organization’s development are clear examples not only of a high market competitiveness, but also of a dynamically growing commitment to the effective implementation of the challenges associated with the 17 objectives of sustainable development of the contemporary EU, according to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This allows for a conclusion that the identification of the key factors for a smart organization’s development makes it possible to monitor and provide targeted support for the development not only of these organizations, but also for the competitiveness and sustainability of individual countries, both from the EU and other regions of the world. In light of the above, the aim of this article is therefore to propose an effective tool to monitor the use of power of smart organizations in the processes of building the competitiveness and sustainable development of countries, with particular reference to the EU. To achieve this objective, we constructed a synthetic power of smart organizations index (PSOI) based on previously collected data from EUROSTAT. This tool allows for the integration of micro (organization level) and macro (country level) economic aspects into a single construct. Based on the analysis of its results, countries wishing to actively engage in the development of their own and the EU’s smartness and sustainability can be offered several more or less intense navigation paths to market success, based on the development of smart organizations.
