Estonian Ambassador to visit Jersey to build digital relationship

The Ambassador of Estonia will visit Jersey to build on the countries' existing digital relationship.

In September Senator Ozouf and Deputy Scott Wickenden went on a 'digital fact finding' mission to the country.

His Excellency Mr Lauri Bambus will be in Jersey tomorrow to meet representatives of the island's digital community.

Estonia is a D5 member state and one of the world’s leading digital jurisdictions in digital, particularly in the field of eGov.

Jersey States has been rolling out its eGov initiative for sometime now, with many delays.

An Honorary Consul for Estonia in Jersey is also being appointed during the visit; local resident, Mr Auberon Ashbrooke, will take up the role.
