Denmark is internationally recognised for building and operating digital public infrastructure at national scale - from digital identity to secure data exchange and trusted public services.
We facilitate structured government visits, connecting international public leaders with the Danish authorities and solution providers behind these systems.
Each visit is tailored to your priorities and designed around curated meetings with the people who design, regulate and operate Denmark’s digital public infrastructure.
The visit at Digital Hub Denmark was the most inspiring and rewarding few days I’ve had as a civil servant.

Digital government has been an integral part of Denmark’s mindset for decades. With over 50 years of experience in digitalising government and public service delivery, Denmark has shown the significant benefits of digitalisation for societies.
Denmark has demonstrated how an efficient digital public sector is shaped through joint policies, focused initiatives, and effective tools that have established a robust public infrastructure, creating real value for citizens.
We work to share experiences and learnings from driving public digital transformation, offering key insights from the decision-making processes and solutions built during Denmark's digital journey.
Did you know Denmark is one of the highest ranking countries in the world when it comes to the digitisation of the public sector?
The government introduced a central database of every person residing in Denmark.
Digital signature allows authorities and businesses to communicate digitally with citizens thereby moving away from physical letters. A secure way of authenticating identity online.
The mandatory easy account tied to your personal bank account gave authorities and employers and easy way to handle payments to citizens.
Authorities are obliged to use a common ICT infrastructure. A cross-government identity verification known as “Easy ID” was created - which became NemID in 2010 and then mitID in 2021.
Borger.dk portal was launched, allowing citizens to access more than 2,000 self-services. This was the gateway to the public sector.
In the following years, digital post and digital self-services were made mandatory for both citizens and businesses alike.
An experience centre was inaugurated for international delegations visiting Denmark with the aim of promoting Danish digital solutions.
At Digital Hub Denmark, we facilitate connections between international delegations and Danish digital solutions across both public and private sectors. We offer comprehensive support through presentations, meetings, and site visits. Reach out to us to find out more on how we can help you.
Our 750 m² space in the heart of Copenhagen, which opened in 2021, serves multiple functions, including an interactive showroom, theatre, lounge, and office space. This visitor centre highlights cutting-edge design and features an interactive exhibition on Denmark's digital journey.
We host more than 75 delegations annually, showcasing the forefront of Danish technology and innovation.
