Enhancing Government to Citizen Engagement through the Digital Evolution

13 - 14 May, 2021

Virtual Summit

Returning for our 7th year inspiring digital services across the Public Sector.

Taking place across 2 days, this event unites leaders in Local Authorities, Central Government, the Health Service and the wider Public Sector to leverage new digital strategies and technology innovations to adapt to post-COVID-19 challenges and continue building a digitally enabled state.

Digital Government 2021 looks at the progress made on the journey to a digital enabled state, as well as the challenges which still need to be overcome.

This 2-day event will provide an opportunity for the public sector to establish the right skills needed to improve and design services that are both user-centric and easily accessible.

Through best practice case studies and high-level discussions, this event will provide a space for central and local government, the NHS and the private sector to come together as a digital community to debate and define the opportunities for digital transformation in the public sector.

Testimonials

One of the things that I loved about the Virtual Summit experience was that you could see who was watching the sessions with you. It helped us connect with folks who were interested in similar topics, and really made chatting so much easier. I haven't seen this at any other virtual shows so far.

Sponsor, Digital Government 2020 -

Digital Government events provide an opportunity to catch up on the latest trends and ideas in local and central government, give an insight into the future direction of the digital delivery of services. Despite COVID19 forcing the event online this year, the event still kept its value.

Skills Development Worker - Two Saints

Digital Government is a must-see event for all local authorities. It doesn’t matter if you have been involved in digital projects for less than two years or more than 10 years. You will leave with knowledge and learning’s you can apply to your organisation immediately. Also a great platform for networking.

Digital Connectivity Manager - Nottinghamshire County Council

I honestly feel that Digital Government 2020 was an excellent platform to learn the role of various organisations and also to network with others. It covers useful agendas which are helpful and beneficial to our knowledge.
