Annotation: The article examines the specifics of the relationship between the high-tech sector and digitalization for the development of Russia. Based on the analysis of scientific literature, four approaches are identified that reflect the connection and influence of digitalization in the development of entrepreneurship, industry and territory. As a fundamental component in the study, based on the considered approaches, the direction related to the technological development of territories is taken into account, which is aimed at activating opportunities in the field of information technology. To determine the specifics of the relationship between the high-tech sector and digitalization, an assessment of the export and import of information technology products (IT products) is carried out. The application of an approach to the assessment of exports and imports of IT products is justi- fied. A classification (based on the OECD approach) has been identified for the assessment, which includes a breakdown by product groups: computers and peripheral equipment; communication equipment; digital and consumer electronics; electronic components; miscellaneous. The trends in global trade in the export and import of IT products are analyzed and the Russian specifics in this segment for a 19-year period (from 2004 to 2023) are identified. Promising positions in the field of digital technologies in the global IT product market are identified.
