Purpose of the research is to identify the conditions and factors of the development of the economy of shared consumption in Kazakhstan, based on the analysis of current trends in the development of the republic in the socio-economic, demographic and information technology spheres. The methodology is based on the use of general scientific methods, including general logical (analysis, synthesis, analogy) and theoretical (hypothetical, abstraction, generalization) methods. The study was based on the hypothesis that the development of the economy of shared consumption in the republic follows in line with global trends and is subject to the same patterns of development that take place in economically developed countries. Originality / value of the research. For the first time, the work focuses on the analysis of conditions for the development of the economy of shared consumption in the Republic of Kazakhstan, linking them with trends in a wide range of demographic, socio-economic and information technology indicators. This contributes to a more objective assessment of the country's readiness for the development of the sharing economy. Special attention was paid to the technological component, including the analysis of the NRI network readiness index. This made it possible to identify and evaluate the technological challenges for the introduction of information and communication technologies facing Kazakhstan in the context of the development of the economy of shared consumption. Findings. The article presents the results of an analysis of the dynamics of indicators characterizing the prerequisites for expanding the sharing economy in Kazakhstan. The authors highlight indicators such as population size, life expectancy, level of urbanization, GDP per capita and network readiness index (NRI). The analysis also covers the level of stratification of society by income. The level of stratification of society based on the volume and nature of income of the population of Kazakhstan was also analyzed. The findings indicate the existence of conditions for the accelerated development of the sharing economy in Kazakhstan, but there are weak positions in the technological support of digitalization, which requires eliminating the identified deficiencies.
