Development of an index that monitors Greece’s digital maturity transformation performance across 7 different dimensions.
Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV) with the support of Deloitte have developed the Digital Transformation Observatory, namely a permanent monitoring mechanism for promoting the digital transformation of Greece.
For the purposes of the Observatory’s inaugural study of Greece’s digital maturity a new composite index was created, SEV Digital Maturity Index, consisting of ~100 published key indicators and metrics (Digital Economy and Society Index-DESI, World Bank, World Economic Forum, etc.) that monitor the country's performance across 7 different dimensions and 27 sub-dimensions.
The 7 basic dimensions are divided into:
• Enablers: factors that are the preconditions and/ or accelerators of digital transformation (ICT / High Technology Sector, Connectivity Infrastructure, Policies & Regulatory Framework, Digital Skills)
• Outcomes: degree of digital maturity in business, public sector and households (Digital Maturity of Businesses, Digital Maturity of Society, Digital Maturity of Public Sector).
In addition, within the scope of the study, a primary survey was conducted in February 2019, with the participation of ~280 C-level business professionals in order to determine the level of adoption of digital technologies among Greek businesses. The responders answered a series of questions, grouped in 7 main pillars.
SEV Digital Maturity Index provides long-term comparison of Greece’s digital performance across the 7 different dimensions with EU Member States.
