Abstract Digital Empowerment has emerged as a transformational concept in today's digital world. We live in it, and it is changing how we use technology to get knowledge, innovation, and take part in the economy and society. As digital technologies increasingly influence governance, education, entrepreneurship, financial, and social inclusion, due to this scholarly research on digital empowerment is increasing day by day. Though scholarly research interest is increasing in the domain of DE, this field is still lacking in a systematic review of its intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and collaboration network. For the study, data were collected from the Scopus database and analyzed through Biblioshiny (Bibliometric R package). The study included performance indicators such as the annual scientific production, citation analysis, leading authors, documents, and countries with network-based techniques such as co-citation, and keyword occurrence analysis. The findings reveal that there is steady growth in research production in the DE field, specifically in the last one and a half decades, with the dominant themes centered around digital inclusion, Digital literacy, digital divide, and e-learning. Emerging research fronts for the future, which include risk assessment, strategic approach, and vulnerability. The findings of the study have strategic significance for researchers and policymakers, and for those who are willing to seek the advantage of DE in the global digital economy, and help to create a more sustainable and better future.
