Shaping Norway’s Digital Future is part of a new series that assesses a country’s digital performance and maps its digital policy landscape and priorities to inform the design of its digital policies.
Shaping Norway’s Digital Future analyses Norway’s digital performance, policies and priorities to inform development of a new national digital strategy. It outlines the priorities and trends that will shape the country’s digital future and maps its digital policy ecosystem. The report further assesses Norway’s digital performance based on the OECD Going Digital Toolkit dashboard of indicators, analysing its policies through the lens of the OECD Going Digital Integrated Policy Framework. It concludes with policy recommendations to achieve a more digital, innovative and inclusive Norway.
The report was undertaken with the financial support of the Norwegian Ministry of Digitalisation and Public Governance. It draws on interviews with Norwegian stakeholders from academia and the private sector, including Digital Norway and Innovation Norway.
The OECD Directorate for Science, Technology and Innovation carried out the study under the auspices of the OECD Digital Policy Committee (DPC). The DPC declassified the report on 4 April 2024.
Molly Lesher, Lorena Giuberti Coutinho and Louis Holt wrote the report under the leadership of Audrey Plonk and Jerry Sheehan. Katarina de Brisis, Timothy Szlachetko and Astrid Solhaug (Norwegian Ministry of Digitalisation and Public Governance) provided invaluable advice and feedback. The following OECD colleagues provided content and support in their respective areas of expertise: Nicolas Benoit, Elif Koksal-Oudot, Pierre Montagnier, Julian Olsen and Hanna Pawelec.
