“…(2) Making complex products in Iran requires the use of complex technologies that will be time-consuming, and costly. In addition, they need technology transfer policies (which are not applicable in the sanction era) (Bahar et al, 2014 ; Nouira & Saafi, 2022 ). Therefore, turning to products with higher OGI would provide a platform for future diversity of the Iranian economy.…”

Nowadays, developing the best policy mix to manage national industrial development is an open question. The inherent complexity and competitive circumstances increased the risk of failure and challenged the development of national programs, especially in the case of developing economies. To address such a complex world, this study proposes a novel scenario-based economic complexity analyzing methodology to overcome future uncertainties. The method contains two independent research lines. The first one evaluates and prioritizes industrial development by referring to the opportunity gain and product complexity indexes (a historical and current analysis). The other is to develop future scenarios through an expert-based process to uncover the most plausible futures (future-oriented evaluation for uncertainty behaviors). Then, results merged to increase a robust policy to guarantee development success and reduce failure risks. Iran has been selected as the case study since the country is facing a very uncertain future both from political and economic perspectives. Results revealed that the priority is to focus on the opportunity gain of products instead of product complexity since the country is facing international sanctions, limited investment capacities, and the potential of global challenges in the era of globalization, similar to the world faced during COVID-19 pandemics.

“…The research in Table 1 that examine the economic impacts of the human capital stock show that this widely held belief has been validated. Finally, recent studies on the impact of institutional quality on growth (Berhane, 2018;Nguyen et al, 2018;Salman et al, 2019;Zallé, 2019;Sani et al, 2019;Alexiou et al, 2020;Duodu and Baidoo, 2020;Nouira and Saafi, 2021); Ahmed et al (2022); Nair et al, (2021); Tiwari and Bharadwaj (2021); Conteh et al, (2021) show that strong institutions play an important role in achieving sustainable development and economic growth.…”

“…The works of Algraini ( 2021), Grisolia et al (2022), Guijarro-Garvi et al ( 2022), and Indrawati and Kuncoro (2021) state that the social investment role of economic growth is based on education with the preference for the traditional (pre-digital) practise. This position is proved by the fact that an increase in human potential, which is a source of economic growth, takes place through education (Bloom et al, 2021;Nouira and Saafi, 2022;Wang et al, 2022).…”

The motivation for this research was the desire to disclose the potential for human potential development that is created by Industry 4.0. The goal of this paper is to study the modern international experience and prospects for implementing the social investment model of economic growth under the conditions of Industry 4.0 with the help of the development of digital education. The method of regression analysis is used to model the econometric dependence of human development on digital education in 2019–2021. The paper’s contribution to the literature consists in the development of scientific provisions of the concept of the social investment model of economic growth through reconsidering the approach to human potential development with the help of education under the conditions of Industry 4.0. Unlike the existing approach, which implies the foundation on traditional (pre-digital) education, this paper offers a new approach to human potential development under the conditions of Industry 4.0, which is based on digital education. The advantage of the authors’ approach is its allowing for the fullest use of new opportunities that open under the conditions of Industry 4.0. The main conclusion of this research is that under the conditions of Industry 4.0, the social investment model of economic growth should be based on digital education. The theoretical significance of the results obtained lies in their allowing reconsidering the role of education in the implementation of the social investment model of economic growth under the conditions of Industry 4.0. It is proved that this role is performed most successfully with the help of digital education. The practical significance of the conclusions is due to the fact that implementation of the authors’ recommendations will allow balancing the level of human development in the countries of distinguished categories: countries with the highest Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate; countries with the highest level of human development; countries with the most developed digital education. The social significance of the paper consists in its support for the practical implementation of SDG 4, SDG 8, and SDG 10.
