Ambassadors’ Guided Tour at the Smart Country Convention

Last week the Ambassadors’ Guided Tour at the Smart Country Convention took place in Berlin, a showcase of how digital transformation is reshaping governance, business, and innovation. The tour stopped at key booths, including the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (Bundesministerium für Digitales und Staatsmodernisierung), Bechtle, Schwarz Digits, and international exhibitors such as Latvia and LMT Innovations. Each stop offered a glimpse into how states and companies are tackling the challenges of modernization from digital public services and smart infrastructure to cross-border innovation ecosystems. The convention underlined Berlin’s role as a hub where technology, diplomacy, and policy intersect, making it an essential meeting point for those shaping the digital future.
