Denys Shmyhal: Digitalization is a huge investment resource that can be used to develop the economy

The digital transformation of Ukraine is a huge investment resource, as it allows releasing millions of hours that people spend in queues when compiling documents, reconciling registers or certificates, and directing the time to economic development.

Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal stressed during the presentation of new electronic services and documents "Diia Summit", which took place on October 5 with the participation of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

"The State in a smartphone, the digitalization of our state is the vision of the President and the strategy of the Government. According to experts, the use of digital technologies in business spurs its development by 2-3 times. Therefore, for Ukraine it is an opportunity to accelerate and catch up with developed countries," stressed the Prime Minister.

The Prime Minister reminded that the day before the Government had approved an Action Plan to improve the quality of mobile services in Ukraine. "Together with Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, we met with mobile operators to improve the quality of communications and mobile Internet. Speed and quality of services are of paramount importance," Denys Shmyhal emphasized.

According to the Prime Minister, the use of digital technologies offers a number of advantages. "Digitalization is the creation of high added value for the state, increasing the efficiency of the economy and business. All these measures will become a geopolitical advantage of Ukraine," Denys Shmyhal summed up.
