Digital technology can help MSMEs adapt swiftly and accelerate through digital transformation. This study investigates the influence of digital technology on the preparedness of MSMEs in Bogor Regency, West Java Province, for Industry 4.0, and on enhancing business performance using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).
