Leveraging GenAI for Greater Efficiency in the Public Sector
...
Cases of GenAI implementation in government
In Germany ..., France, ... Italy ...

Join Us to Learn More About GenAI Implementation Best Practices !

Generative AI holds promising potential for enhancing public sector operations, though some governments across Europe are pioneering its implementation, applications are still in the early stages. It is important that governments act proactively, starting with small-scale implementations, learning from initial experiences, and adapting their approaches as needed.

As the technology and research in this field continue to evolve, addressing these challenges collaboratively and learning from emerging best practices will be crucial. We invite you to join us at the GovTech Connect Assembly on November 28th in Brussels, where leading experts from the government technology sector will present examples of GenAI experimentation in Government and explore how to effectively implement and maximise its potential in the panel discussion, "From Vision to Action: Overcoming Implementation Challenges of GenAI in Public Services”.
