Summary/Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be a transformative event, reshaping governance, society, and economies worldwide. Its unprecedented challenges accelerated the adoption of digital technologies, profoundly affecting the way governments operate, businesses function, and individuals interact. Across the European Union and Greece, the crisis acted as a catalyst, hastening digital transformation in public administration, education, healthcare, and various other sectors. This paper explores the pandemic's role in driving governmental innovation and adaptability, highlighting how these changes have reshaped public service delivery, enhanced e-governance, and fostered resilience in the face of adversity. The analysis seeks to illuminate the extent of this transformation and its implications for the future of governance in a digitally dependent world.
