Digital Competitiveness Forum 2024

Unlocking Trust in Governments' Digital Infrastructure Programmes
Best Practices in Large-Scale Transformation to Achieve Widespread Acceptance and Adoption

The Digital Competitiveness Forum 2024, co-organised by digitalswitzerland and IMD will explore the pivotal role of public trust in driving the success of large-scale digital initiatives.

As Switzerland prepares to launch its state-recognised electronic credentials system (E-ID), this milestone marks a critical advancement in the nation's digital competitiveness. However, as highlighted in the 2023 World Digital Competitiveness Ranking, public trust remains a major challenge for successful adoption.

  • What best practices can Switzerland adopt to ensure a smooth implementation and widespread acceptance?
  • How can collaboration between the public and private sectors, civil society, and associations like digitalswitzerland foster the trust needed for such transformations?


Following the release of the 2024 IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking and a keynote address by the Swiss Government Delegate for Digital Transformation, an international expert panel will debate the business transformations needed to support complex digital initiatives, drawing valuable insights from Estonia's pioneering digital economy and its approach to building a human-centric digital society and fostering trust across all sectors.

Join us for a deep dive into how Switzerland can leverage global best practices to ensure the successful adoption of its digital identity system.
