German digitalisation inspired by Denmark: Bavarian delegation travels to Copenhagen with Colibo
As part of the official digitalisation partnership between Bavaria and Denmark, Colibo participated in a delegation trip organised by the Bavarian State Chancellery to Copenhagen. Representatives from all Bavarian ministries joined the visit to gain first-hand insight into Denmark’s role as the most digitalised country in the world – and to explore what systems could help drive digital transformation in Bavaria’s public sector. The week-long visit was coordinated by the Royal Danish Embassy in Munich.
Colibo showcases Danish-German best practices
As a Danish provider of a modern intranet platform for the digital workplace, Colibo demonstrated how digital collaboration, remote working, and the cultural shift towards “New Work” are being successfully implemented in both Danish and German organisations.
Joining Colibo at the event was the Danish Ministry of Defence, who shared their experiences with Colibo’s platform – a real-life example of how even high-security institutions can achieve secure and successful digital transformation.
Key topics included user-friendliness, seamless integration with existing systems, and the ability to centralise internal communication, knowledge sharing, and document management.
Denmark & Bavaria: Digital partners for the future
A core goal of the digitalisation partnership between Denmark and Bavaria is to advance the digital transition of the German public sector by learning from the Danish model. Denmark is globally recognised as the most digitalised public administration, and Bavaria is now actively focusing on knowledge transfer and close collaboration.
The Bavarian delegation was deeply impressed by the digital maturity of Danish authorities and institutions, which have been prioritising scalable, user-centred software solutions for years – aimed at genuinely making employees’ lives easier.
This is exactly where Colibo steps in: with an intranet that intelligently connects people, information, and processes – in a way that is intuitive, flexible, and secure.
Colibo as a digital bridge-builder
Colibo sees itself as a bridge-builder between countries, public bodies, and their digital needs. With years of experience in the public sector and a platform purpose-built for complex public organisations, Colibo supports administrations on their journey towards a modern way of working.
Developed in collaboration with Danish authorities, the Colibo intranet now powers the digital workplace of choice for numerous municipalities, regions, and higher education institutions in both Denmark and Germany.
Shaping the future together
At Colibo, we believe digitalisation is not just about technology – it’s fundamentally about people. Solutions must be intuitive, secure, and tailored to users' needs. We are proud to have contributed to cross-border knowledge exchange and to support digital transformation in Bavaria and Germany through our participation in this delegation visit.
