What is municipal? Digital!

"Kommunal? Digital!" is a funding program of the Bavarian State Ministry for Digital Affairs that was launched as an ideas competition at the end of 2020. A total of over 70 project ideas were submitted to the competition. From December 2021 to September 2024, ten winning municipalities received a total of around four million euros in funding to implement pioneering solutions in the areas of climate resilience, resource efficiency and citizen participation.

The Ministry of Digital Affairs is currently supporting a transfer phase in which the digital concepts and solutions already developed are to be transferred to other municipalities in a targeted manner. This creates synergies, knowledge is shared and digitalization in Bavaria progresses faster. Not every municipality has to start from scratch: "Kommunal? Digital!" focuses on the exchange of proven solutions, adapted to local needs.
