Public innovation for real people

Bringing change to governments from within and around

The PublicTech Lab is an initiative from the IE School of Global and Public Affairs tackling government transformation from the outer and from within. On the outer government space, we foster govtech ecosystems, aiming to bring govtech startups and public institutions closer. On the inner government space, we train and support public officials and civil servants to lead the transformation.

Training and Study Tours

Aimed at officials and public representatives, our modular and flexible courses foster transformation and innovation strategies in public institutions.

Bootcamp for Govtech startups

OUR BOOTCAMP CAN HELP GOVTECH STARTUPS

  • To reduce their sales cycle and customer adquisition costs.
  • To achieve success in highly regulated industries or in B2G markets.
  • To pilot innovation in real scenarios.
  • To create value for citizens and public servants.
  • To thrive in govtech ecosystems.

Our bootcamp brings govtech startups, scaleups and digital SMEs closer to public institutions, so that they can work and collaborate with them, as well as sell to them.

Leading experts and professionals will share their know-how in public sector digital transformation, procurement laws, B2G sales strategy and partnerships as well as work together with them to identify their specific challenges. Additionally, case studies from other international govtech markets and references about leading govtech investors will be shared.
