INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR CONFERENCE 

e-Estonia- the most digitally advanced society in the world

Building a digital society: the Estonian dream is to have as little government as possible, but as much as is necessary. Thanks to e-solutions, communicating with the state is fast and convenient, and our country is more effective as a result. Today, we have inspired many nations and businesses to learn from Estonia’s experience and also elevate their services and processes accordingly. Being a pathfinder in many areas, Estonia is the first digital nation in the world with e-residency, first to use blockchain at Government level and an avid innovator and technology adopter. Considering all that, we are open to share the journey – we have built a digital society and we can show you how.

 

AI & DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION FORUM CONFERENCE 

Emerging technologies to improve e-government

Emerging technologies for elevating e-governance. Estonia started to implement KSI blockchain after 2007 to enable bigger transparency and allow data usage verification in any given point. “Objective source of truth” backed by blockchain technologies is a key part of integrity.

Implementing emerging technologies is habitual to Estonia. The government’s AI strategy set out to streamline and automate public duties, and enhance data based governing in many institutions, starting from health care with AI support to family physicians or large auditing models for paying taxes in the Tax Board. Currently, the goal is to build Bürokratt, an AI based virtual assistant to be the first point of contact for every citizen, whatever government service or help they might need.
