The resource potential of the enterprise as a factor of sustainable industrial development in modern economic conditions

Abstract

Sustainable development is a concept aimed at striking a balance between social, economic and environmental aspects and is one of the most important challenges and priorities in the modern socio-economic system. The balance between economic goals and needs (industrial growth, efficient use of resources) and environmental goals and needs (biodiversity, natural resources, ecosystem integrity) is driven by productive factors. Thus, industrial growth may conflict with the protection of natural resources, and as a result lead to incompatibility of needs. The article considers an industrial enterprise as a system that includes various business processes providing production activities and are included in the economic turnover and resources required for production purposes. Increasing resource efficiency and participation in green projects are important opportunities for economic development. The importance of promoting a significant increase in the share of industry in employment and gross domestic product in line with national objectives to modernize infrastructure and modernize industries to make them sustainable, with increased use of resources, efficient and wider adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies in industrial processes has been identified. Increased technological capacity of industries, motivation of innovation and a significant increase in the number of personnel engaged in research and development through public and private financing has been identified as an important factor in sustainable development. Since the modern economic conditions for the running of industrial enterprises are manifested in the emergence of technological and managerial innovations in the structure of resource potential in terms of development of innovative digital technologies, the concept of developing the resource potential of an industrial enterprise is proposed, including tools for self-optimizing economic actors and self-adapting business processes to the integration of digital technologies.
