Bitkom aims to advance digitalization in Germany with government investments and new legal regulations. The "Digital Pact Germany" aims to preserve the progress made in recent months into the post-coronavirus era.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Corona crisis has for a Digitalization push in Germany<\/a> Administration, employers, and schools had to switch from face-to-face to digital communication within a short period of time. The digital association Bitkom wants to ensure that the progress achieved continues in the post-virus era. Bitkom President Achim Berg <\/strong>says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"The Corona crisis is a digital turning point. There must be no return to pre-crisis mode. The focus must be on using the digital legacy of the crisis to create the 'new normal' and move the country forward."<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDigital Pact Germany\u201d: More investment, less regulation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To this end, the association is calling for a package of measures with an investment volume of 15 billion euros. One-third of this is to be allocated to digital vouchers for small and medium-sized enterprises. The vouchers, worth up to 10,000 euros, are intended to secure the digital transformation within companies. The association estimates 5.7 billion euros for a tax bonus for home offices. Employees who work remotely are to benefit from this. A further 1.5 billion euros will be spent on modernizing the administration. Schools are also to benefit from the "Digital Pact Germany." Together with a "digital child benefit" of 300 euros, which is intended to enable needy families to purchase IT equipment, Bitkom estimates 2.3 billion euros for this. Finally, the plan includes 500 million euros for the expansion of digital infrastructure and regulatory relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

"Economic stimulus can provide important short-term impetus. But that alone is not enough. It must not just be about somehow getting through the coronavirus crisis. Now we must lay the foundations for future growth. To do this, we need long-term, effective regulatory measures\u2014a kind of digital spring cleaning for more innovation,"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

says Berg. The association also calls for relaxation of the regulations on maximum working hours and mandatory minimum rest periods. According to Bitkom's vision, digital training should become standard. Telemedicine should be treated equally to on-site medical care, and health data and its analysis should be more strongly promoted. Merchants should be required to accept electronic payment methods.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
