Digital Transformation of Micro-Enterprises in the Light of the Covid-19 Pandemic

The article presents the results of a quantitative study of a group of micro-enterprises in Poland's industrial sector in the digital transformation field, considering the COVID-19 pandemic. The authors aimed to check the status quo of implementing digital solutions and technological innovations in business. Concluding, Polish micro-enterprises need more time to use digital solutions, implement technological innovations, and achieve digital transformation. The COVID-19 pandemic period, to some extent, gave rise to the need to implement digital solutions, but it did not happen suddenly and on a large scale. Advanced technological innovations such as virtual reality, augmented reality, robotization, or automation of production processes are still not fully understood by the entities surveyed and are even less of interest to them. Companies do not look for sources of financing and support from external entities to implement digital solutions for the company.
