Public Innovation
Public sector innovation is a new or changed approach that creates or increases value in the public sector. It can take the form of a new service, improved processes, implementing new technology, or establishing collaboration partnerships. What matters is that it solves a real problem and improves services for the public.
Innovation in public services starts with a need, not a solution. When the state, municipalities and other public bodies define their challenges clearly and look for new ways to meet them, value is created for society as a whole. Sometimes the solution already exists on the market and only needs to be adapted to the needs of the public sector. Sometimes it has to be developed from scratch.
On this site, public bodies can find approaches, tools and support for using innovation in their work, and companies can find out how to take part in solving the challenges of the public sector.
