Mongolia ranks only 89th out of 121 countries in global digital competitiveness in 2023. Despite this low ranking, Mongolia has shown significant improvements in various digital readiness indices in recent years. Internet penetration is very high at 93%, but the use of the internet for business is still low. Only 35% of businesses are digitized or use digital services.
Project contents are:
- Review and analysis of data and reports on the digitalization of Mongolian businesses, especially those run by women
- Expansion of an existing EBRD digital platform on digital services and products (Digital Technology Selector, DTS) for Mongolia
- Identification and sensitization of potential providers of digital services for the use of the DTS and their training in relation to the DTS.
Task
- Involving and motivating local providers, especially SMEs, to register their companies and products on the DTS platform (integration of providers). The aim is for at least 50 providers with up to 200 technologies or services to be registered there.
- Increase awareness of the DTS platform among Mongolian SMEs, especially those run by women. At least 150 women-led SMEs are to be familiarized with the DTS platform through information events.
- Facilitating access to financing for digital investments
