Over the past five years, Ukraine has made a significant leap in the development of digital government services, rising from 102nd to 5th place in the global ranking. This demonstrates improvement in the accessibility, quality, and efficiency of government services provided through digital platforms, announced Mykhailo Fedorov, Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation.

“If you look at the table, in just five years we have moved from 102nd place in the world to 5th in digital services development. This ranking is compiled by the UN. We have managed to achieve a real breakthrough,” Fedorov said during the NV event “Great Digital Transformation” on June 18.

The Minister also expressed confidence in further progress, stating that Ukraine will likely enter the top three leaders in the next edition of the ranking, expected in two years.

He also commented on the current state of artificial intelligence development in Ukraine. While the country does not yet have large-scale AI models or its own cloud infrastructure comparable to global technology companies such as Amazon or Microsoft, it possesses a key strategic asset – data.

“We have unique battlefield data, and it is accumulating – this is what we can offer to the world,” he noted.

According to Fedorov, continued investment in digital development remains a government priority, particularly in the context of current wartime challenges and the need for stable, modern state infrastructure.
