The D21 initiative has released its Digital Index for 2024/2025. The key message remains consistent with previous years: there is a clear connection between a person’s willingness to embrace digitalization and their personal prosperity. However, it’s important to note that this is not necessarily a direct cause-and-effect relationship, as many examples challenge this assumption.
The index highlights specific areas where Germany still needs to catch up in digital development. Ultimately, it’s up to each individual to take advantage of new digital opportunities. For the next government, the political challenge will be to create better incentives that encourage a more digitally engaged society.
