This paper examines the impact of Internet technologies on the development and management of the tourism industry. I took the Republic of Zimbabwe, which is located in southern Africa, as an example to reveal this topic. Zimbabwe is in the process of development, which could lead to a clash with an unstable economy and politics since 2000. Despite its rich cultural heritage, it has suffered negative experiences due to international advertising, a significant reason for the rapid spread of which is online platforms. It is accepted that information and communication technologies (ICT) are aimed at helping rapid growth, but this situation shows how they can harm the reputation of a tourist destination, which is in the stage of economic development. The study examines the main reasons for how tourism operations are changing, focusing on promotion, customer interaction and business efficiency under the influence of digital transformations. It also analyzes the significant problems for tourism enterprises when using Internet technologies, and recommends steps on how to achieve achievements and advantages over competitors using digital tools. Key topics are digital promotion tasks, distribution through social networks, the invention of online travel agencies (OTA), the use of big data and artificial intelligence (AI) and the unification of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the tourism industry. Finally, one can get acquainted with the application of the dual role of ICT in both promotion and potential instability in countries that are in the process of economic development.

The present study investigates the transformative impact of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, encapsulated in the "Industry 4.0" framework, on the socio-economic systems of G7 countries, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan, drawing on contemporary scientific evidence. It explores how the integration of digital technologies—such as Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and cyber-physical systems—reshapes industrial production, enhances resource efficiency, and fosters sustainable development, while simultaneously posing social and institutional challenges. The research employs a systemic analysis and comparative approach, highlighting the differential adoption of smart technologies like Smart Grid in Russia and IoT-driven agricultural advancements in Uzbekistan, alongside G7 leadership in automation. Findings reveal that while Industry 4.0 drives economic growth and environmental benefits, it also exacerbates labor market disruptions and resource demands, necessitating robust institutional reforms and a "Just Transition" framework. This comparative analysis underscores the need for tailored strategies to balance technological progress with social equity across diverse economic contexts.
