Digital Nation Action Plan

Building a World-Leading Scottish Digital Nation

The purpose of Digital Scotland is to support and help accelerate the Scottish Government’s ambition for the country to become a world leading digital nation.

This mission will be realized through a number of major programs:

Best practices community

DigitalScot.net provides a community publishing platform, so that members can join, connect with others and share their expertise through blogs, building a knowledge base of best practices supporting Scottish companies to develop and implement digital transformation strategies.

We welcome one-off or regular blogs on a variety of topics, particularly those that explore a vision for a future Digital Scotland and what practical actions are required to realize that vision.

Digital economy infrastructure ventures

Through deployment of technologies including Cloud computing and the Blockchain, Digital Scotland will build out the core infrastructure needed for the 21st century digital economy. This will provide capabilities across a spectrum of needs ranging from small business IT through digital education.

Each project will be developed and launched as a new standalone business venture, creating investor opportunities and building out a general capacity for fast-tracking more hyper-scale startups.
