The City of Kranj is a city with a rich history and many ambitions, continuously developing to improve the quality of life for its residents. The Digital Development Strategy presents the vision and roadmap for an open, sustainable, connected, and innovation-driven city.
The digital strategy for the period 2026–2031 is intended for all residents, businesses, institutions, and visitors. Digitalization is not an end in itself—it is a tool for easier living, higher-quality public services, better decision-making, and more efficient management. The strategy is based on international and national development guidelines.

Our goal is not to monitor people, but to use technology responsibly to improve everyday life. Data is collected only when necessary, securely managed, and used transparently.

We are committed to ensuring that no one is left behind during digital transformation. Digital solutions must be accessible, understandable, and useful for everyone.

Data platform, digital twins, GIS, IoT, sensor systems, smart urban equipment, smart mobility, smart environment, and cybersecurity.

Development of user-friendly digital services, a single digital access point, notifications, participation, tourism, culture, sports, and local offerings.

Modernization of municipal operations, process optimization, electronic business, AI support for employees, digital skills, and organizational development.

Strengthening cooperation with the local economy, startups, scale-ups, deep-tech companies, educational institutions, and the innovation ecosystem.
Digital solutions must stem from people’s real needs. Technology is a means of solving concrete challenges, not an end in itself.
Services must be understandable and easy to use, with special attention to older and more vulnerable groups.
Data must be used legally and transparently. Cybersecurity, privacy and trust are the foundations of a digital Kranj.
Digital solutions must reduce fragmentation, connect services and data, and simplify the work of administration.
Decisions should, where possible, be supported by high-quality data on traffic, the environment, services and space.
Digitalization supports the green transition: sustainable mobility, efficient energy use, and reduced physical operations.
