He 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 and financial management amongst others,” he said.
The Director General of BPSR, Dr Dasuki, said individuals and organisations that have made significant contributions to digital transformation in the public sector in the last one year will be honoured with the Govtech Public Service Awards across various categories.
He said the award recipients were selected through a nomination and voting process conducted across multiple media platforms.
He said the maiden edition of the event, which took place in October 2023 at the International Conference Centre (ICC) in Abuja, was aimed to recognise and encourage those who have spearheaded innovative reforms to advance the entities they lead.
