Abstract
The development of the digital economy in theoretical and practical aspects in the Russian economic space requires a detailed study of the implementation of programs for the development of the digital economy in the countries, leading in technological paradigms (USA, Germany). The programs adopted in 2010 – 2011 in the leading countries based on the theoretical justification for the development of the digital economy as a scientific direction, and they have experience in its implementation. The study of these programs, with the distinction between the concepts of Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things, contributes to the development of the digital economy in theory and practice in the Russian economic space.
