Welcome

Public Sector Tech Watch (PSTW) is the European Commission Observatory dedicated to monitoring, analysing and disseminating the use of emerging technologies (e.g., Blockchain, Artificial Intelligence, etc.) within the public sector in Europe.

Our mission is to become the “one-stop-shop” for all stakeholders – including public sector officials, policy makers, GovTech startups and SMEs, and academia – interested on the latest technological developments to improve public sector operations and service delivery.

Managed by the European Commission, Public Sector Tech Watch is linked to EU GovTech to create a robust ecosystem for innovation. While PSTW primarily supports public sector leaders and academia with comprehensive analysis and insights, EU GovTech is more targeted towards startups and SMEs, to connect them with public sector partners and drive public sector digitisation.

As part of the Interoperable Europe Portal ecosystem, the Interoperability Regulatory Sandbox Hub is designed to support public administrations in the EU in fostering innovation and regulatory learning. By facilitating experimentation within a controlled environment, it helps develop practical solutions to cross-border interoperability challenges in Europe’s evolving digital public services.
