Digital transformation in Government

Digital Disruption, application economy and smart cities are some of the hot buzz words. They all however revolve around the idea that solutions enable companies and governments deliver new value and improved customer experience to their customers or citizens. Companies are normally under pressure and scrutiny to adopt new methods of doing things to make themselves more competitive. Governments on the other hand, are normally late adopters of technology and change. However, with the move towards customer centricity, and the growing application economy, they cannot, and should not be left behind.

  • Koen will address the idea of digital transformation in Government, and present how innovative solutions from the smart city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, and Huduma in Kenya are helping drive new digital experiences for their citizens.
