GovTech: Social impact through technology

Government technology (GovTech) is about more than the technology itself.

GovTech creates public value with efficient, transparent and sustainable government services enabled by technology.  We are working in partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Global Government Technology Centre in Berlin to expand the global GovTech ecosystem and accelerate the digital transformation of public services.

Governments worldwide are seeking new ways to add value to society. They know the state must address concerns around public security and health provision, while transforming how it works to close the tax gap, enforce regulation, and meet rising public expectations for seamless and personalized services.

GovTech sits at the heart of the global response to these transformation challenges.

Our collaborative partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Global Government Technology Centre (GGTC) in Berlin sees us using technology to redefine the future of government. Why? Because GovTech is constantly evolving and what worked for governments yesterday, isn’t always fit-for-purpose tomorrow.

The scale, speed, and scope of change in the GovTech ecosystem demands a collaborative, ecosystem approach to ensure governments realize its potential long into the future.  The Forum and GGTC are ideally placed to be the lynchpin of that ecosystem – and we’re committed to facilitating the connections within it to advance GovTech solutions.

We are a founding partner in the Global Government Technology Centre (GGTC) in Berlin

Officially launched by the World Economic Forum and GovTech Campus Deutschland in October 2024, the GGTC is a first-of-its-kind initiative bringing together the GovTech ecosystem to address common challenges.

The GGTC creates a space for innovation and collaboration, giving public sector organizations access to solutions that will drive greater value and foster innovation. With a powerful set of tools helping them to modernize the way they work, governments have an opportunity to work with the GGTC to enhance the quality and accessibility of public services and expand their reach.
