The aim of the Digital Czech Republic conference is to contribute to the development of the digitalization of society and public administration across Europe, on the example of Czechia. The digitalization of society enables closer contact between citizens and the state. This contributes to the more efficient functioning of the state strengthens liberal values and their protection/development leads to the establishment of new cooperation and enables the exchange of information and experience from abroad.

Digitisation strengthens fundamental democratic principles such as freedom of expression or the right to information. On the other hand, digitisation brings new situations for which society is not prepared, such as the protection and processing of personal data, where we need to find solutions.
