Abstract
Since the last decade, the world economy has been transitioning towards digital trans-
formation and sustainability. Both concepts have been viewed to solve the grand chal-
lenges, especially climate change. This study aims to explore the literature integrating
digitalization and sustainability in top-ranked business journals. Drawn upon the ap-
propriate dataset, findings show a tremendous increase in literature, specifically since
2018. Using the taxonomies, we observed prosperity (SDG7, SDG8. SDG9, SDG10,
SDG11) is highly focused in literature, while scant research is available on peace and part-
nership of sustainable development goals (SDGs). Conversely, digital technologies are
used for sustainable development and SDGs. Whereas digital devices such as platforms
and ecosystems, blockchain, big data and analytics are widely applied to evaluate pros-
perity and overall sustainability. This study extends the existing literature by providing
important directions for future research.
