Modernizing Germany's Digital Sector: A Focus on State Modernization

Germany is set to take significant strides in modernizing its digital sector, with the Committee on Digital and State Modernization leading the charge. This committee, a key player in the German Bundestag, has been instrumental in driving digital transformation and state modernization.

Hansjörg Durz, the current chairman of the Committee on Digital and State Modernization, has prioritized integrating digitalization and state modernization. His vision includes expanding broadband infrastructure, modernizing registers, and developing digital public services like a European identity ecosystem and citizen accounts. Significant budget allocations for these reforms are expected in 2024 and 2025.

The digital sector reforms in autumn 2021 are likely to emphasize enhancing digital infrastructure and administrative digital transformation to improve efficiency and data governance. These reforms are part of Durz's broader strategy to streamline and modernize the digital sector.

The upcoming Bitkom@eight event, scheduled for October 9th, will provide a platform for discussing these priorities and Durz's leadership. The event will delve into potential topics such as the 'fall of reforms' in the digital sector and the impact of the newly established Digital Ministry on the committee's work.

The establishment of a standalone Digital Ministry in Germany has given the Committee on Digital and State Modernization a significant boost. This development reflects the government's commitment to prioritizing digitalization and state modernization.

Durz's tenure as committee chairman began at the start of the current legislative period. Under his leadership, the committee has been working tirelessly to shape the digital future of Germany. The next Bitkom@eight event promises to be a fascinating discussion on the committee's priorities and the future of Germany's digital sector.
