A summary of the rankings for all nine sub-factors is presented for the 64 economies for 2023. It is possible, at a glance, to determine in what areas of digital competitiveness an economy excels or has particular weaknesses and to make comparisons between countries. These rankings provide a more detailed examination of specific aspects of the digital transformation and can be used to, for example, evaluate the technological framework of a country or support international investment decisions. We view the rankings as a tool for managers or policy makers to use when they analyze the above questions. Of course, each company must take into consideration the logic of its own economic sector, economic forecasts and its own traditions as well as governments should consider the national identity and value system of their economy..

Digital Competitiveness Country Profiles Each two page profile analyses the performance of one of the 64 economies that are included in the IMD World Digital Competitiveness Ranking. The economies are presented in alphabetical order. The term economy signifies an economic entity and does not imply any political independence. It is possible, in one glimpse, to evaluate the digital evolution of each economy over time and its relative strengths and weaknesses. However, each economy’s particular situation is influenced by its development level, political restraints and social value system.
