A well deserved appreciation on the heavy lifting Ukraine 🇺🇦 has done over the past couple of years in #DigitalTransformation. Most impressive. #Diia

[Tallinn Digital Summit @TallinnSummit]

There was a huge applause for Ukraine's Deputy Minister for Digital Transformation @valeriya_ionan here at #TDS2022.

She outlined Ukraine's inspiring digital strategy - from before Russia's full scale war to after Ukraine's victory.

Here's some highlights. 🧵

Takes teamwork to make the dream work! Let that sink in for a while - three countries working together on an interoperability layer for our mutual benefit. I think we're onto something here. #Interoperability #innovation #xroad #Iceland #Finland #Estonia #NIIS
