The Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship in Jordan has launched a national blockchain technology network in partnership with Jordanian blockchain company Blockexe. The implementation of blockchain technology in Jordan’s government sector aligns with the Jordanian Digital Transformation Strategy (2021-2025).
Enhancing Trust in Government Services
On July 17, the Jordanian Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship announced its partnership with local blockchain company Blockexe to launch a national blockchain technology network called Modee Dlt. This protocol aims to enhance trust and transparency in government services.
The blockchain network has been integrated with the Jordanian government portal, allowing for decentralized and verifiable digital records of all Sanad transactions. According to a report, this implementation aligns with the Middle Eastern nation’s Digital Transformation Strategy (2021-2025), which focuses on strengthening the country’s digital infrastructure.
Under Jordan’s ambitious strategy, innovation, as well as private and public sector partnerships, are seen as key enablers; hence, they are encouraged. Investments in critical information technology infrastructure, including broadband expansion and 5G deployment, are similarly viewed as important enablers. When achieved, these and five other enablers help Jordan improve the quality of life for its citizens.
Meanwhile, the Ministry emphasized that utilizing the blockchain network across various government sectors will create a reliable digital environment, supporting the Kingdom’s broader goals of achieving a robust and trustworthy digital economy.
In addition to enhancing trust in government, this initiative aims to streamline the integration of e-government services, making them more transparent, efficient, and competitive both locally and internationally.
