GOVTECH PRIZE HONOURS GLOBAL SOLUTIONS FOR PRESSING CHALLENGES AT WGS 2024

GovTech Prize honours global solutions for pressing challenges at WGS 2024

7 Feb 2024 09:54


ABU DHABI (WAM)

The ninth edition of the GovTech Prize 2024, part of the World Governments
Summit (WGS), presents a unique model that celebrates the contributions of
technology pioneers in providing service solutions that anticipate future
challenges and enhance the quality of human life.

The prize, managed by the Emirates Government Service Excellence Programme
(EGSEP) at the UAE Prime Minister’s Office, continues its mission to encourage
pioneering students, researchers, government agencies and institutions, private
sector companies and startups to develop innovative solutions and explore new
opportunities for a better future for humanity.

The GovTech Prize embodies the visions of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin
Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai,
in promoting innovation in the development of services and future government
work and employing technology to enhance human life.

The Prize is given to government entities, whether central or local, around the
world to acknowledge creative and innovative solutions that tackle important
challenges and create outstanding government service experiences. The award aims
to recognise solutions that use new and efficient approaches and techniques with
technology to solve problems affecting a large part of the population and
provide real benefits, with the potential to expand geographically across
borders.

The GovTech Prize 2024 is to recognise innovations in creating human centric
government services experiences in the following categories: Educational
Services, Healthcare Services, AI-Powered Government Services, and Inclusive
Digital Transformation.

The WGS has adopted a new model for selecting innovative experiences and success
stories in the award categories. It has partnered with a number of global
partners to monitor and study 250 experiences around the world that were
evaluated by a global jury of experts and specialists in the fields and
categories of the award. Approximately 50 government experiences reached the
final stage of the evaluation and were re-evaluated to select the best of them
to win the prize.

Eligibility for the prize requires that the solution should be in a mature stage
and should be adopted by at least one government entity, and it should be
related to technology innovation. Moreover, the solution should have been
developed and/or adopted recently; within the last 24 months. Finally, the
solution should align and/or belong to one of the categories advertised for the
current year award.

The evaluation criteria include the following:

- Level of innovation: measuring the adoption of novel approaches and techniques
leveraging technology to provide solutions in a streamlined and more efficient
manner

- Impact: describing the ability for the solution to solve sticky problems
affecting a large part of the population, providing tangible benefits

- Maturity: evaluating the readiness and robustness of the solution and its
level of adoption

- Scalability and replicability: assessing the possible extension and adoption
of the solution to broader audiences/geographies and/or other contexts

- Sustainability: considering both the cost-effectiveness and financial
viability of the solution, as well as its ecological impact and footprint.

Since its launch in 2013, the WGS has focused on foreseeing future governments
and building a better future for humanity and has contributed to the
establishment of a new system of international partnerships based on inspiring
and anticipating future governments.
