About Digg

Digg is an authority that works broadly to support and coordinate the digitalization of the Swedish public administration. We develop digital infrastructure and services that help other public actors in their digitalization. We also ensure that digital public services are accessible to all.

Possible organizational change

In order to strengthen the digitalization work, the government has tasked Digg and the Post and Telecom Authority (PTS) to propose how our two authorities could merge into one. The report was submitted to the government on March 14, and we are now awaiting a decision on whether an organizational change will be implemented. Our work to digitalize Sweden continues, and we hope you want to join the journey.
