GENERAL FRAMEWORK OF TECH CONSULTING APPLICATION FOR COMMUNITIES’ INNOVATION DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Tech consulting is crucial in modern conditions for rural communities due to its ability to address the unique challenges and opportunities presented by the digital age. As technology rapidly evolves, rural areas often lag behind urban centers in access to and utilization of these advancements, leading to disparities in education, economic development, healthcare, and social inclusion. Tech consulting bridges this gap by introducing and implementing digital solutions tailored to the specific needs of rural communities. The aim of this article is to identify and analyze the general characteristics and benefits of utilizing technological consulting to promote innovative development in rural communities. The article seeks to demonstrate how technological consulting can address the unique challenges faced by rural areas, enhance economic growth, improve quality of life, and foster sustainable development through the implementation of advanced technologies and tailored solutions. Authors demonstrate that the next production revolution entails a confluence of technologies ranging from a variety of digital technologies to new processes. Rural areas are characterized by low density economy and by shortage of labour including depopulation and ageing, and these emerging technologies may help overcome these challenges in rural areas. The role of tech consulting in rural communities is vital for fostering development and improving quality of life. By enhancing education, driving economic growth, improving healthcare services, promoting social inclusion, supporting agricultural development, facilitating sustainable practices, and fostering community resilience, tech consulting helps bridge the gap between urban and rural areas. As technology continues to advance, the impact of tech consulting in rural communities is likely to grow, paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable society.
