Abstract: The article examines the global dimension of business relocation in the context of antifragility, digital transformation, and sustainable development. The authors analyze relocation not only as a forced response to external challenges but also as a strategic mechanism for enhancing business resilience. It is noted that relocation processes are accompanied by an increase in entropy, which requires adaptive strategies, including the use of digital technologies, optimization of business models, and integration of sustainability principles. Methodological approaches to assessing relocation are considered, including systems and synergetic analysis, as well as economicmathematical modeling of risks and benefits. Particular attention is paid to international relocation experiences, which demonstrate effective adaptation models. The study concludes that relocation can become a driver of business development if accompanied by digitalization and strategic risk management. The importance of government support in creating a favorable environment for business adaptation is emphasized. The findings of this study may be useful for researchers, entrepreneurs, and policymakers in developing effective business relocation strategies in conditions of global instability.

The article also analyzes the impact of relocation on the long-term competitiveness of enterprises. In particular, it examines how strategic relocation planning enables companies to minimize operational risks, reduce costs, and efficiently adapt to new market conditions. Special attention is given to the role of innovative technologies in ensuring business continuity and improving management efficiency during relocation.

Furthermore, the socio-economic aspects of relocation are highlighted, including its impact on employment, human capital development, and the integration of businesses into new regional ecosystems. Possible risks associated with personnel adaptation and the transformation of organizational culture in a new environment are outlined. Key factors contributing to successful relocation are identified, including effective stakeholder communication, the development of local partnerships, and support from governmental and international institutions.
