Abstract: Romania aims to make the digital economy a leading place in the new architecture of regional development. This will in fact contribute to the development of a high quality regional and local management that will be reflected in the activity of local and regional public institutions, in the development of SMEs in underdeveloped regions and will contribute to the creation of new jobs for young people and for other excluded social and informational groups. The use of new technologies leads to a profound change in the structure of the workforce. This paper presents the evolution of the employed population in the field of IT & C, with the presentation of the leaps made at the regional level in the period 2008 - 2016. The paper also presents aspects of Romania's position on the digital market of the European Union, highlights aspects of the impact of digital economy development, with a weight-of-GDP analysis at both national and developmental levels.
