For us, corporate social responsibility goes hand in hand with our business model, our software platform, the services we provide to our customers, and finally the impact our combined efforts have on key areas of the global sustainability agenda.
Solutions that increase transparency, reduce corruption, and build stronger institutions – we call this digital bureaucracy. Our ambition is to rebuild trust in democracy and government services through digitization. And the evidence suggests that we are having a positive impact in this area.
Over the past 15 years, more than 75 government entities have implemented our standard software.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have worked closely with the government to ensure a seamless transition to remote and virtual work, while maintaining high-quality public service delivery. Denmark was again ranked number one in the world in the 2020 UN Gov-Tech survey. And as a company, we want to play an active part in the development of a digital society – in Denmark and globally. Previously, we have focused solely on SDG 16, but we believe that we can take this a step further. Building on SDG 16 and the digital bureaucracy, we want to apply our software to SDG 13 and SDG 17 to further leverage our impact for a more sustainable world. In this “Decade of Action,” we will focus on technology transfer in partnership with government institutions, as stipulated in SDG 17.
We believe partnerships and technology transfer will play a key role in helping society ‘build back better’ in the wake of the challenges imposed by COVID-19. Furthermore, we believe in the power of software in the fight to reduce climate change and manage natural resources sustainably, in keeping with SDG 13.

We are confident that we have the technology to make an impact in the coming years.
