Govtech NL

GovTech NL was launched as a collaboration in 2019 by The Hague Tech, WorldStartup,

YES!Delft, Digicampus, PLNT, and Danny Frietman + Rogier Klimbie. The GovTech NL

Foundation will be established in 2025 by several core members from these organizations and

partners. The group is full of expertise in the fields of public innovation, tech, public-private

collaboration, impact, and entrepreneurship.

GovTech is the collaboration between the public sector and startups, innovators, government

"intrapreneurs," citizens, and the academic world in the field of digital government solutions.

GovTech complements the existing capacity of the public sector by enabling flexible, user-oriented, responsive, and cost-effective processes and services. The collaborative interactions that GovTech innovation brings are characterized by co-creation and experimentation. These interactions aim to transcend traditional supplier-contractor relationships and build new forms of public-private partnerships.

The GovTech NL Foundation aims to help governments harness the potential of GovTech by

accelerating the delivery of GovTech solutions. To achieve this, the foundation encourages the start of businesses, social coalitions, citizen initiatives, and new forms of public-private

partnerships that contribute to the creation of an open, trust-based, future-oriented, and

inclusive government through GovTech solutions.
