The Role of Digital Transformation in Building Business Resilience;

In today's volatile global economy, digital transformation (DT) has emerged as a pivotal enabler of business resilience.This study conducts a systematic bibliometric analysis to map the evolution of scholarly discourse connecting DT and resilience from 2015 to 2024.A total of 1,546 documents were retrieved from the Scopus database using a targeted Boolean query across title, abstract, and keyword fields: ("digital transformation" OR "digital innovation" OR "technology adaptation") AND ("business resilience" OR "organizational resilience").The analysis was executed using Biblioshiny, an R-based bibliometric tool, to visualize publication trends, citation structures, co-authorship networks, and thematic shifts over time.Results reveal a steep rise in publication volume particularly from China, Italy, and the United Kingdom reflecting growing academic attention.However, citation counts remain modest, suggesting limited global integration and influence.Journal articles dominate the literature, with Sustainability and Technological Forecasting and Social Change emerging as the most impactful sources based on h-index values.Key themes include innovation, performance, management systems, and dynamic capabilities, but their development and centrality vary across contexts.This review offers novel insights by bridging two critical domains digital transformation and organizational resilience through a decade-long bibliometric lens.It identifies geographic disparities, sectoral adoption patterns, and emerging gaps in cross-disciplinary scholarship.The findings underscore the strategic necessity of embedding digital innovation into resilience planning and call for deeper empirical inquiry into causal mechanisms and impact evaluation across industries.These insights provide a valuable knowledge base for researchers, policymakers, and business strategists alike.
