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.

The key economic task of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in market conditions is to ensure competitiveness in product markets in the area of their production specialization. In addition, long-term economic development dictates the need for a sufficient level of competitiveness in financial markets, that is, acceptable conditions for access to external sources of financing for operating and investment activities. Solving this problem is impossible without the implementation of large-scale investment projects that require significant amounts of financial and material resources. At the same time, in many sectors of the economy of the Republic of Uzbekistan there is a contradiction between the real need for the volume of financing of investment activities aimed at updating and developing the material and technical base, and the available sources of its own financial resources. One of the reasons for this situation is the lack of an effective management system for financial and investment activities, which is based on modern methodological principles and uses the latest technologies and tools for financial management of SMEs. All this predetermines the relevance of scientific substantiation of new methodological approaches to managing the investment activities of enterprises that are adequate to the current financial and economic conditions of their functioning.
