Abstract The purpose of the article is studying of the impact of the level of digital infrastructure development on formation of Industry 4.0 in Arctic regions of Russian Federation. The study objects are four arctic territories of Russian Federation, namely, Murmansk region, Yamalo Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District, Chukotka Autonomous District and Nenets Autonomous District. The methodological basis for the study is assessment of the level of regional digital infrastructure through analysis of separate indicators and calculation of the integrated indicator. The data of the Russian Federal statistic agency and its branches for period of 2014-2019 were used for assessment and analysis. The results highlight the not very positive dynamics of integrated digital infrastructure development indicator since the level of it has a tendency or stagnate or grow slowly. The formation of Industry 4.0 that requires to combine internal enterprise’s computerized design and automated machinery with ecommerce and Internet of Things in one integrated ebusiness system, is looking problematic in current situation for analyzed regions. The authors formulated the limitations for the study and defined the directions of the future research.
