Summary

The article explores the concept of the biodigital continuum - a state of inextricable connection and interpenetration of biological systems and digital technologies in the context of the development of the bioeconomy. The mechanisms of convergence of artificial intelligence, synthetic biology and big data are analyzed. It is determined that the biodigital continuum allows us to move from the simple use of bioresources to their programming. Proposals are formulated for the strategic management of this process to ensure sustainable development. This research has been conducted with the support of the European Union within Jean Monnet project [grant number ERASMUS-JMO-2023-HEI-TCH-RSCH, 101127252 – «Promoting of European skills and approaches for sustainable bioeconomy in the conditions of Ukrainian acute challenges» (PESAB)]. «Funded by the European Union. Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European.
