GovTech Festival

On November 2-28, 2020, the GovTech Festival, powered by Internet Governance Forum, will take place. It is a unique place to explore digital initiatives. The festival will include: 

• Game Jam - a marathon of game development in several categories. Young developers and start-ups from around the world will compete to create the most unique and interesting games. 

• Fake Hunter Marathon - a marathon of detecting and unmasking fake news all over the Internet, and learning ways to detect and expose fake news. The marathon will be based on a solution developed by journalists from the Polish Press Agency and the GovTech Polska team to expose false information about the COVID-19 pandemic. 

• Service Jam - an event dedicated to finding solutions to global problems. Available to a range of people, not just experienced advisers and public sector employees. 

• HackYeah - coding marathon, hackathon taking place on November 28. 

 

GovTechFestival is a celebration of new technologies - a month of digitization, learning, and great fun! Our goal is to familiarize citizens with the secrets of the digital world and improve their digital skills. Events available every day are intended for every age group - from children to seniors - and professionals, regardless of the level of IT knowledge or place of residence. Fakenews, cybersecurity, AR and VR, FinTech, e-commerce platforms, and artificial intelligence are just some of the Festival's topics. 

GovTech Festival is an alternative to the Internet Governance Forum 2020 UN event, which is organized and hosted by Poland, and was postponed due to the pandemic. We still want to celebrate and meet you. The festival opens starts the "Year Zero" before the start of IGF 2021. The involvement and participation of the global community in our GovTech Festival are of key importance. We see digital events as an opportunity, not an obstacle. It confirms the need for changes in the modern way of working, studying, or maintaining relationships with family and friends! 

GovTech Festival is a series of events organized in November 2020, aimed at spreading interest in digitization, modern technologies, and innovations, also in the public sector (GovTech). November 2020 is a month full of initiatives. Everyone interested in new technologies will be able to choose the most appropriate events for themselves. There are no analog / digital boundaries for us! 

We warmly invite you to submit your activities and include them in the Festival calendar. We aim to make Poland even more govtech-friendly! 

We accept applications until October 16, 2020.
