Vice PM Kubiv: Digitalisation of economy and society is effective instrument of economic growth

Digitalisation of economy and society is an effective instrument of economic growth, which creates opportunities for the attraction of modern advanced technologies in all areas of economy and life. 

"It is an effective instrument of economic growth, which creates broad opportunities for attracting modern advanced technologies in all areas of economy and life. The digital market will allow promoting successful trade, better security, establishing more entrepreneurial opportunities and creating better living conditions for citizens," First Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine Stepan Kubiv said upon the 3rd Eastern Partnership Ministerial Meeting on the Digital Economy in Bucharest.

Ukraine, he recalled, is already part of the digital transformation process, which includes the development of advanced communication technologies, cyber security, reduced fees for international roaming services with the Eastern Partnership and the EU countries, the development of digital infrastructure and e-commerce.

“We ensured the digitalisation of public procurements through the ProZorro system, formed an extensive system of centers for providing administrative services and are ready to integrate into the European Union in a large number of areas: expansion of foreign trade, harmonization of standards with the EU, large-scale reformation of education, health care systems and so on,” Kubiv explained.
