Comparative analysis of telecommunications and information services exports as a factor of sustainable industrial development in Ukraine and the EU

Abstract

The dynamics and structural features of telecommunications, computer, and information services exports in Ukraine and the EU over the period 2010–2024 are analyzed in the context of the digital economy. The level of integration is assessed using the share of exports in GDP, and the statistical significance of differences is tested using the Student’s t-test. The results indicate comparable levels of development; however, differences in export structure are evident: the EU shows a more diversified structure, while Ukraine shows a concentration in computer services.
