Abstract

The digital economy era has transformed various sectors, including tourism. Digital technology enables companies to operate more efficiently and reach global markets more easily. Digital transformation has become an urgent necessity for the tourism industry to remain competitive. This research aims to explore how a strategic approach to digitalization can be applied by tourism businesses to enhance their global competitiveness in the digital economy era. The research employs a literature review method with a qualitative approach. Data were collected from Google Scholar with publication dates ranging from 2011 to 2024. The study results indicate that digitalization has become imperative for tourism businesses in facing global dynamics in the current digital economy era. More than just the use of information technology, digitalization involves a comprehensive transformation of business processes, from marketing to the tourist experience at destinations. Successful examples of tourism digitalization in Indonesia, such as Wonderful Indonesia and online ticket booking platforms, demonstrate significant potential in enhancing global competitiveness and strengthening the local tourism industry

Abstract

This study examines the effects of digital technology access, gender equality, regional economic development, and minimum wage policy on women’s labor force participation in Indonesia. Using an annual provincial panel data set for the period 2015-2024 (t = 10), yielding 340 annual observations, the analysis applies a dynamic panel regression based on an Error Correction Model to distinguish long-run relationships from short-run dynamics. The results confirm a long-run relationship between digitalization, the gender development index, gross regional domestic product per capita, the provincial minimum wage, and women’s labor force participation. In the long run, the gender development index, gross regional domestic product per capita, and the provincial minimum wage have positive and statistically significant effects on women’s participation, while digitalization has a positive but not yet significant effect. In the short run, changes in digitalization, the gender development index, and gross regional domestic product per capita positively and significantly affect changes in women’s labor force participation, whereas changes in the provincial minimum wage are not significant. These findings suggest that digitalization mainly acts as a short-run opportunity trigger, while progress in gender equality, rising regional prosperity, and an adequate minimum wage function as key structural determinants of stronger women’s labor force participation in the digital economy.
