Digital transformation key to improve Jordan's economic development
Representative of the communications and information technology sector in the Jordan Chamber of Commerce (JCC), Haitham Al-Rajbeh, affirmed that digital transformation is a major driver of economic and social development, calling for accelerating the digitization of more government services.
Al-Rajbeh said in a statement on Monday that Jordan is considered one of the region's first countries in using the digital transformation process in a host of economic sectors, especially in the financial, agricultural, industrial, and health services areas.
'Digital transformation reduces operational costs, contributes to simplifying and accelerating procedures for services provided to citizens, and provides high-quality services with transparency, monitors performance, and links between public and private institutions to ensure data security,' he indicated.
Al-Rajbeh pointed out that business owners and investors send their investments to countries with a ready and developed infrastructure in digital transformation and service automation, referring to the government services provided through the (Sanad) application, which have significantly doubled during the recent period.
He also noted that the Economic Modernization Vision emphasized the importance of accelerating the pace of the government’s digital transformation by establishing partnerships with the private sector, adding that this vision stressed the need to promote Jordan as a digital technology and innovation hub in the region.
According to the vision, about 25,000 employees worked for the ICT sector in 2021, constituting 1.6 percent of the total employment volume in the Kingdom, while the number of full-time workers will reach 101,000 in 2033.
