How Governments in Sweden, Denmark and Estonia Are Adopting Blockchain and AI

How Governments in Sweden

Governments in advanced countries are adopting Blockchain technology and artificial intelligence at a rapid pace. From Estonia, to Malta, The Netherlands to the United States, all countries busy themselves to become fully digitalised societies, hopefully before the expiration of the current decade.In the second part of this article, I examine what is happening in Denmark, Sweden and Estonia.

Denmark has been very progressive in its push towards mainstream adoption of the blockchain and AI in governmental function. Several initiatives have been launched to make this a reality in the country. These initiatives are as follows:

The government of Denmark is looking into the use of AI and the blockchain in digital identity, healthcare, business support and its welfare system. Denmark is one of those countries which have ensured that most of its service provision to citizens is done digitally. Indeed, 90% of Denmark’s governmental services are already being done digitally (Basu, 2017). But the people want more. Danish citizens are demanding even faster response and delivery times for government services.

Denmark is also being forced into the blockchain evolution by the country’s population demographics. Denmark’s ageing population means that fewer younger people are available to get into the public service. Therefore, this is a classical case where augmentation of the human workforce using the blockchain and AI is desirable. For Denmark, this has become a necessity, even though it can be quite controversial.
