Institutional modernization and digital
transformation is a process that was accelerated by the pandemic and has as one
of its definitions the integration of digital technologies by organizations and
their impact on society.
The power and possibilities of the digital
platforms, the Internet of Things, cloud computing and artificial intelligence
were shown to even more help Parliament's continuity, and complimentary, these
institutions are showing their leadership and innovation by bringing these
tools as allies to improve their activities. Subnational parliaments and
legislatures around the world have proven the concept that the legislature can redesign
its internal process to ensure institutional continuity and improve the
effectiveness of the legislative process. Parliaments around the world are
aware of this process and the new digital economy. Several Legislative Houses
have adopted their digital transformation strategies and it is possible to
observe different cases where these strategies positively impacted not only the
House itself, but the legislative activity and its deliveries to society as a
whole, which impacted parliament's transparency, the society, competitiveness
of countries and economies globally.
Observing this movement, between September 13th
and 15th, Buěssola Tech will hold the second edition of its traditional
conference called "LegisTech for Democracy", in virtual format, that
reunites experts of more than 30 Parliaments and organisations to talk about
the digital transformation in the legislative agenda, known as
"LegisTech", a designation created by the organisation in 2018.

strengthen a global community for the digital transformation of the Legislative
Power.
