GovTech Connect’s Post

As part of The Lisbon Council and the GovTech Connect project, I am leading a Foresight Study that will explore the potential and future trajectory of GovTech in Europe. We are publishing the drafts of the first few chapters of the study, which analyse the European market landscape. Click on joinup to find: ✅ Insightful analysis of GovTech startups in priority sectors such as Environment, Well-being, Transparency, and Inclusion. ✅ An evaluation of national and regional programs nurturing GovTech development. ✅ Market sizing for GovTech ecosystems across Southern, Northern, Western, and parts of Eastern Europe. ✅ Recommendations for leveraging GovTech for sustainable and inclusive digital public services. 🌐 Full report available on the GovTech Connect Collection on Joinup.

#BecauseWeAreBetterTogether 💥 With over 5000 GovTech solutions in Europe, we are facing a wealth of #innovationpotential. 🚀 After the success of our first #VentureInsights study two weeks ago, we got requests for more European GovTech insights. 🎯 These are the #results: https://lnkd.in/eiykxqpr 👉 5000 #GovTech solutions are waiting to be implemented. 👉 However, #EuropeanGovernments find themselves trapped in outdated methods, unable to harness this potential – effectively hindering progress. 🙌 How can the Sopra Steria #VentureClienting help? 🔎 It allows us to scout, evaluate, and tailor solutions for administration challenges. 🌍 Regionally, we have already demonstrated the effectiveness of Venture Clienting in the #PublicSector, led by Ron de Jonge and his team, who understand the precise needs and requirements of administration – yielding tangible results. ❓ Can we extend this success across #Europe? ‼ Absolutely. But this isn't a task one institution can tackle alone. Cross-border cooperations, both in the public sector and in private enterprise, are crucial for successful implementation #continentwide. 🤞 Lucky to have Socheat Chhay and Tobias Studer Andersson by my side in #France and #Norway to cooperatively drive innovation in the European GovTech sector. 🙏 Thanks again for the great work, Manuel Kilian. Let's keep pushing for innovation and integration in the European GovTech space. cc: Christian Wrage I Frederic Munch I Yann Metz-Pasquier I Markus Schlosser I Ulf Glöckner I Dr. Bernd Peper I Lars Zimmermann I David Steinacker I Faruk Tuncer I Alexa Möller I Marvin Klother I Ramin Mirza I Lennard Schmidt I Fabian Klein I Lasse Giese I Dorothea Baumann I Jan Erlinghagen I Jil Ruch I Daniel Eichhorn I Julia Korn I GovTech Campus Deutschland I Maximilian Wörlein I Nils Karn I Harald Joos I Sopra Steria I Sopra Steria Ventures

GovTech4all Participates in GovTech Leaders 2024 – Vital for the Future of the GovTech Ecosystem 🌱 🌟 We at GovTech4All are excited to be part of GovTech Leaders 2024, a conference that plays a crucial role in shaping the entire GovTech ecosystem. Here, the industry’s top innovators and decision-makers gather to discuss how technology can be used to transform the future of public services. Being present at this conference is essential for us as stakeholders to collaborate, share experiences, and find common solutions to the challenges that digitalization poses for the public sector. Building a sustainable and inclusive ecosystem requires joint efforts to shape future technologies—and GovTech Leaders 2024 provides us with that platform. We also look forward to participating in the GovTech Leaders Gathering today on September 25. This exclusive event offers an open and dynamic format, allowing us to engage with other participants and discuss the most pressing issues facing the GovTech sector. Together, we are creating a more inclusive and innovative public sector! #europeangovtechday #govtech4all #govtech The Lisbon Council Beta-i • collaborative innovation GRNET - Greek Research & Technology Network Bron Innovation Inovacijų agentūra GovTech Lab Lithuania GovTech Sweden Alex Borg Gustavo Magalhaes Ana Lomba Correia Despoina Kamila Gasinska Hanna Wallin Ulrika Eklöf

Had the pleasure to join the "#GovTech in France and Germany - How can Startups foster Innovation in Public Sector?" event for a keynote sharing experiences from our #mygovernment initiative and interviews conducted with GovTech entrepreneurs in Germany Three key points from my keynote: 📍 GovTechs constitute a dynamic but immature field characterized by the intersection of two key tensions (mission success vs. commercial success and startup-practices vs. bureaucratic practices) and substantial challenges to successfully collaborate with government; 📍 Existing government ecosystem initiatives to support GovTeechs are not sufficiently tailored to the needs of GovTechs („contacts instead of contracts“) and public administration is often lacking an understanding of GovTech (eg. demanding tailorized on-premise solutions limiting scaling effects for GovTechs); 📍 Sharing some ideas how collaboration can work and what governments can do to create more favourable conditions for GovTechs (with #GovTechHH being a showcase example) Very best thanks for French Tech Berlin, Mazars in Germany and Possible (ehem. PUBLIC Deutschland) for organizing the event together with our Hertie School Centre for Digital Governance.   The discussions were really insightful, highlighting the potentials but also challenges of GovTech and its potential to stimulate the public sector through innovation and digitalization.

🤝 GovTech Connect Assembly Theme Spotlight - Innovation in Public Procurement 🤝 Innovation in public procurement is often hindered by outdated practices, and with the potential of digital innovation to reshape public service delivery for the better, that needs to change. From updating procurement practices to accommodate rapidly advancing technology, to simplifying market access allowing startups and public-private partnerships to thrive, strategies are needed to foster a more interconnected GovTech ecosystem. The GovTech Connect Assembly will explore this important theme by sharing: 🔑 Lessons from national initiatives designed to promote GovTech within the public sector, from challenge programmes to procurement policy. 📊 Insights on GovTech startup challenges, from how to define impactful ROI metrics, to partnering with larger corporations. 🔍 Reflections on common pain points, and spotlights of success stories, for both governments and startups in innovation procurement. Join the conversation at the GovTech Connect Assembly on 18 October!

We're excited to continue our research series with #SopraSteriaVenturesGermany, this time on the potential of #GovTech for European public procurement ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ez_GNv9T Every year, we miss out on a €200 billion opportunity to modernise Europe's public sector and make the continent fit for the future. Can we afford that in these times? Personally, I don't think so, or as Darius Selke puts it, after coal and steel, goods and services, and a common currency, Europe now needs to move towards a fully fledged technology market. This can be done by harnessing the full potential of GovTech in public procurement. Thanks to Darius Selke, Ron de Jonge, Lasse Giese, Jil Ruch and further team Sopra Steria for the great cooperation. With our research platform #MIRA, we hope to contribute to the development of a European GovTech single market. Interested?
