In the modern economy, innovative technologies — particularly educational technologies (EdTech), artifcialintelligence (AI), virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), cloud computing, and distance learning platforms — have
become major drivers of economic growth through the modernization of the education system. This article provides a
detailed analysis of the economic benefts of digital transformation in education, including skill development, workforce
productivity, job creation, corruption reduction, and contributions to GDP growth. The research is based on empirical data
and statistical models (linear regression, correlation, and SWOT analysis) conducted within the context of developing
countries, including Uzbekistan, India, and Uganda. The study presents practical recommendations for improving public
policy, expanding infrastructure, promoting gender equality, and strengthening international cooperation (with Huawei and
Coursera), thereby contributing to Uzbekistan’s strengthened position in the global digital economy.
