Public services have to approach their citizens more personally and efficiently to create real impact. The interactive Gov Forward event is a platform for sharing insights on citizen-centered experiences. From public services to human experiences, and from policy to real engagement: discover practical insights that you can use to co-create solutions with real impact for citizens.

Gov Forward is the event for everyone that is involved in the future of the federal government. Be inspired by the interactive sessions on human-centred design, emerging technologies and innovative ways of thinking. 

Together towards better citizen experiences  

The Gov Forward event isn’t about driving insights to deliver better citizen-centric experiences. It is also the opportunity to meet professionals and explore common challenges and solutions – both inside and outside the public sector.   

The ultimate goal is to move forward together: 

  • Be inspired by successes and lessons from fellow civil servants. 

  • Receive fresh perspectives from the private sector. 

  • Contribute to a future-oriented, efficient government.
