“GR digiGOV-innoHUB” - The European Digital Innovation Hub for Digital Governance, of the Digital Europe Programme
The aim of the project is to strengthen the creation of a new generation of public and local government services for citizens and businesses, by utilising advanced digital technologies (mobile Internet, 5G, HPC, IoT, Cloud) and the scientific and business potential of the cooperating bodies.
The benefits that will arise from the implementation of the project are multiple:
- Contribution to the development of the innovation ecosystem and the exploitation of Digital Governance as a platform for digital transformation and the evolution of the Public Sector into an investor and buyer of innovative solutions.
- Provision of services that will contribute to the rapid development of innovative and efficient digital solutions, which utilise advanced ICT, with flexible and seamless collaborations between the public and private sectors, the academic community and civil society.
- Creation of an experimental environment for the needs of the Central Government Portal gov.gr, the officials of which will participate in the Hub's bodies and will contribute to the interaction with other public bodies.
