Luxembourg to enter digital partnership with Monaco | #DigitalLuxembourg #Europe | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

Xavier Bettel, prime minister of Luxembourg, and Serge Telle, minister of state of Monaco, signed a declaration of intent for "constructive exchanges" between the two administrations on digitisation on Thursday.

The declaration is the result of discussions between the Luxembourg State Centre of Technologies and Information (CTIE) and the Monaco delegation for the digital transition.

Monaco was represented by Frédéric Genta on this occasion on 6 December in Luxembourg, where he met Bettel. 

Genta furthermore visited the Luxembourg Data Centre, which, according to the government, is a point of reference in Europe for the so-called "Green IT".

The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and the Principality of Monaco would like to make the digital transition a priority. More precisely, they would like to modernise their respective administrations and promote innovation on the ground, both economically and socially.

The partnership is designed to enable the two countries to exchange expertise and experiment results with each other on a variety of topics such as the digitisation of administrative procedures and e-health.

In addition, the two small countries agreed to launch a study to safeguard sensitive data in a Luxembourg data centre with immunity guarantees and privileges resembling those of an embassy.
