                            <p>Purpose – The idea of sustainable regional developmentis a well-known concept in the EU, enshrined in official documents, forms thebasis of local policies and is widely used in practice. At the same time,decentralization processes are taking place in Ukraine, which enhances not onlylocal authorities&#039; ability to define development priorities but also increasesthe responsibility for achieving results. Therefore, the purpose of this paperis to investigate the strategic role of Big Data in supporting sustainableregional development. Methodology – The authors conduct an analysis of theacademic literature about sustainable regional development highlighting thestrategic role of Big Data. The authors also use a comparative analysis of regionsby the completeness of providing information on official sites of regionalstate administrations. Conclusions – Thisresearch paper has important value by analyzing the strengths and weaknesses ofthe local authorities, providing useful information for ensuring sustainableregional development.</p></trans-abstract>
