The Nigeria Govtech Conference and Awards organised by the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR), is a landmark event that will bring together participants from across Nigeria and beyond.
The awards will be presented at the Nigeria Govtech Conference and Awards, scheduled to take place in Abuja on 10-11 October, 2024.
In a statement announcing the event, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, George Akume, emphasized the significance of this year’s theme, “Digital Innovations as a Catalyst for the Renewed Hope Agenda.”
The event will convene government officials, technology experts, civil society organisations, and international partners to discuss how digital innovation can drive governance and enhance public service delivery in Nigeria.
Mr Akume said the theme reflects the pivotal role of digital transformation in achieving President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s vision for a more transparent, efficient, and responsive public service. “The conference will showcase how digital innovations are transforming critical sectors such as healthcare, blue economy education, digital economy transportation, financial management amongst others,” he said.
The Director General, Bureau for Public Service Reforms, Dasuki I. Arabi, who signed the statement stated that individuals and organisations that have made significant contributions to digital transformation in the public sector in the last one year will be honored with the Govtech Public Service Awards across various categories.
