<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p>The aim of the study is twofold. Firstly, it is believed to be the first study of its kind to explore the interconnectivity of the current stage of the EU’s Digital Single Market (DSM)<sup>3</sup> (European Commission, 2015c) and its development prospects within the framework of the EU and its Member States’ SD approach.
