CDTO Campus has signed a memorandum with the Global Government Technology Centre (Berlin). This partnership aims to facilitate knowledge exchange in digital technology and collaborative initiatives.
The educational programs of CDTO Campus will be integrated into the training of digital leaders in Germany. GovTech Campus Deutschland, in collaboration with the TUM Think Tank, will incorporate Ukrainian experience into its educational framework for training specialists in digitalization.
The memorandum, signed by Halyna Pustova, director of CDTO Campus, Viktor Lyakh, president of the Eastern Europe Foundation, and Manuel Kilian, managing director of GGTC Berlin, outlines close cooperation in the fields of digital security and the protection of government services. Ukraine will share its unique cybersecurity solutions, including experiences in migrating government services to the cloud, implementing digital documents, and ensuring resilience against cyberattacks.
Valeria Ionan, Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation for European Integration, also attended the event.
It is worth noting that CDTO Campus is a national educational project aimed at training CDTOs (Chief Digital Transformation Officers) — a new type of civil servant tasked with implementing innovative projects in public administration and overall digitalization efforts.
In 2024, CDTO Campus plans to prepare 440 digital transformation leaders and launch 12 programs in collaboration with leading companies such as Microsoft, Cisco, Apolitical, and other international partners.
CDTO Campus is being implemented by the Eastern Europe Foundation, financed by the Visa Foundation, the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development of Germany (BMZ), and supported by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, in collaboration with Digitality GovTech Centre of Excellence, under the patronage of the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.
