The article presents the genesis and stages of the digital economy development. The object of the study is the subjects of the Volga Federal District (PFD) of the Russian Federation. The subject of the study is determined by the assessment of the state and development of the digital economy using the tools of the Boston Consulting Group matrix and the grouping of statistical measurement indicators for 2005-2019. The chosen analytical tools made it possible to diagnose the level of digitalization of the economy: to determine the degree of digitalization of the region at the current moment, to identify regions with similar trends, to find best practices that allowed some regions to reach the forefront. The obtained indices are combined into a summary indicator, the results of which allowed us to divide the subjects of the Volga Federal District into 4 groups: "depressed", "lagging", "stable", "progressive". The resulting typology of the regions of the Volga Federal District will allow us to develop specific measures in the field of regional digital policy and accelerate the processes of digital transformation of the regions and the country as a whole. Among the regions of the Volga Federal District, the IT sector is developing most successfully in the Republic of Tatarstan, the Perm Territory and the Nizhny Novgorod Region. These regions are implementing a consistent and most effective digitalization policy, which creates the basis for the successful development of the economy and social sphere.
