Iceland is one of the leading nations in the world in the field of digital services. Digital services are used to create a strong society with increased competitiveness that leads to value creation and a foundation for prosperity. Digital services are clear, secure, simple and fast. The user experience of the service is comparable to the service as it is best. The public and companies in Iceland can get directly to the material, anywhere and at any time, which saves people valuable time. At the same time, the impact of the service on natural resources is reduced.
