The sustainable development goals were underlined as needing significant societal changes, which were made even more urgent by the pandemic's advent. The future civilization should strive for sustainable growth, a strategy in which technology is a key component. Society 5.0 is a relatively new idea that serves as a framework for social development and has the potential to have a significant impact on societies at all aspects, including sustainability and quality of life. It seeks to maximize the capacity of the relationship between individuals and technology in the advocacy of the enhancement of everyone's quality of life through an incredibly smart society. Through the analysis of scientifically published works and the data from organizations and governments working on such schemes, it is possible to say that Industry 5.0 is far more than a pattern, and Society 5.0 would consequently open previously unimaginable prospects for the development of a highly smart globalized world.
