BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 12. The approval of the digitalization concept in Azerbaijan is expected in the near future, Chairperson of the Board of Azerbaijan's Innovation and Digital Development Agency (IDDA) Inara Valiyeva told Trend.
"Ideas for roadmaps are being developed across various sectors. For example, we are working with the private sector, covering not only individual ministries but the entire range of areas as a whole. We are creating a roadmap for this area, and work on it is currently ongoing. Similar work is being done for other sectors, including education.
A complete concept for digitalization is being developed, including key performance indicators that we will use to measure the success of digitalization in the country and in government agencies. This concept is currently awaiting approval by the government. We expect approval to happen in the near future," she said.
Previously, IDDA, together with state institutions, developed a roadmap to determine which services and in what order will be digitized.
The agency was founded as a public legal organization under the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport by a decree issued by President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev on October 11, 2021.
IDDA is committed to coordinating digital transformation activities across the country, developing a local innovation environment, and enhancing the overall ecosystem. The agency's primary focus areas include nuclear science and technology testing, assisting individuals and entities with innovation-driven scientific research and startups, facilitating the adoption of modern technologies, ensuring accessible educational and career opportunities in the ICT sector, and establishing and managing the digital government and society.
