This programme is one of a kind in the Nordic Region and will create value for businesses, public authorities and society by sharing data across the region in an automatic, intelligent and secure manner. Nordic Smart Government and Business is a driver of an integrated Nordic region, which is the ambition of the Nordic Prime Ministers. The programme was launched by the Nordic Ministers of Business in May 2018, and is supported financially by Nordic Innovation.
Once Nordic Smart Government and Business is fully implemented, it will become easier for businesses to operate with other businesses and authorities alike. This requires that systems processing business data – both private and government systems – become connected, so information can flow seamlessly and be shared.
Take a look at our Nordic Smart Government and Business film to find out more about the vision, further down on this page.
Roadmap and Implementation plan
The roadmap of NSG&B defines the major strategic steps towards strengthening cross-border trade, supporting Nordic integration, and towards establishing an ecosystem based on the business data of Nordic SMEs. The roadmap should not be regarded as a five-year plan set in stone, but more as an agile strategy that identifies the possible actions needed to realize the potential of NSG&B, step by step.
The implementation plan covers the first implementation period of the Roadmap, from 1 st March 2021 to 30 th June 2024. The six solution areas presented in the Roadmap are in the implementation plan oranized in work streams. This is to ensure sufficient coherence and alignment, handling of dependencies and reducing risks.
Realtime creates value
The ecosystem will provide real time, detailed and structured data on demand, and thus serves the different needs for data in both business and government decisions. The availability of real time data in the ecosystem opens up for new opportunities such as the development of new data-based products and services that can create value for both public and private actors.
