Public API: Drivers for digital transformation and data protection

With the Public API, digihub.li has launched a project together with FOGS that speeds up administrative processes and strengthens data protection at the same time. The newly planned interface between public authorities, SMEs and private individuals could position Liechtenstein as a digital pioneer and inspire companies, citizens and the public administration alike.

What is the Public API and why is it important for Liechtenstein?

The Public API is at the heart of a modern digital ecosystem and enables direct, fast and secure data transfer. Administrative processes such as accounting and audits can therefore be handled completely digitally. In the near future, founders could simply certify and submit documents such as extracts from the commercial register, rental agreements and insurance certificates online - saving time and minimizing errors.

But the Public API also offers other advantages: For example, employee onboarding could be made easier by storing CVs, work references and residence permits centrally and accessing, updating and forwarding them at the touch of a button when required. This reduces the administrative workload and saves valuable resources - especially for SMEs, which often have limited capacities.

Data protection: A key aspect of the Public API

Specifically, the aim is to build a digital infrastructure that creates equal added value for all social stakeholders and sustainably connects Liechtenstein. The project will soon be developed into a minimum viable product (MVP) - with a clear focus on data protection.

"We deliberately focus on self-sovereign data management," explains Stephan Gstöhl, co-founder of digihub.li . In other words, personal data remains securely in your own digital wallet and is only released temporarily. This ensures that private individuals and companies always retain control over their own information. An approach that could also make Liechtenstein attractive for future-oriented companies from abroad and open up new economic prospects.

Digihub.li invites interested companies and associations to actively participate in the further development of the prototype and contribute their expertise to the project. Together, we can lead Liechtenstein to the forefront of digital transformation!
