A REAL OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE TO WORK WITH GOVERNMENT - GOVTECH



In these arduous times of pandemic, our lives have changed in ways which have surprised our own personality and developed a unique system of  adaptability towards the conditions encompassing us everyday.

The power of technology in this pandemic has been eminent and backbone for providing all the necessary services and aid to the common people, health workers and moreover the GOVERNMENT.

An Example; In the UK, a start-up AccuRx accommodated almost 75% of government-doctors to provide video consultations during the start of pandemic.

The pioneering of telemedicine apps in pandemic has also limited the number of in-person patients and reduced the stress to our front-line workers.


Now, let’s look at GovTech


What is Govtech and the ideology behind it?


This term GovTechis derived from two words - “GOVERNMENT” and “TECHNOLOGY” and it aims to promote innovative technological solutions   in digitising the public services. GovTech has a complete approach of technological services in the public sector to provide efficacious and affordable government services. GovTech was created to ensure that Citizens and Government have modernised resources, and strength to solve challenges. As Bill Gates said once, “We are changing the world with technology” and it’s vital for any government in the world to keep up in the race of digitalisation with the private entities.   


How are Start-ups related to GovTech


An umpteen amount of tech-startups have evolved during the pandemic and witnessed multiple opportunities to inculcate profits in the business. Startups have led the GovTech in achieving the digital transformation and creation of enhanced public services to the people.  

An Example; The StimuLab in Norway is funded by the government and it works primarily to improve the “Information and Communication Technology”. It has promoted public innovation in the years.



Why is the GovTech strategy required?


  • The implementation of GovTech can create new markets and improve the employment opportunities for people and public servants.

  • It can provide us with the perfect methods of overcoming the public-sector issues and enhance a rapid response to the challenges.  

  • It can enable the public officials to deliver more secure services remotely.

  • The GovTech can help create a strong connection between Government and Citizens. It ensures trust between the two groups.




Our Approach 


The private sector’s aim is to make profits and endure it, but when the governments play a vital role as a developer, and regulator it can be feasible for even common people to utilise the tools. This can reduce inequality in some areas and promote employment rates as well. The ideology behind GovTech is to produce a positive impact on our economy.

TRUE LOVE – A MYTH OR REALITY?

In my previous article, I talked about how love is beyond logic and it deserves our focus and attention throughout our life inevitably.  Now, I am beginning with a new topic directed towards Love and this time, it’s about first-love, soulmates, love at first sight and intriguing parts of life which endures our thirst for conversations and relationships which enables us to move forward in life and create a better version of us during the process. Why do people care for their first love or relationship so much more than their successors? Personally, first love is equivalent to any initial experience we have in our life such as, a picnic in a vibrant lakeside garden surrounded by family or your first ever thrilling adventure with friends. Our first love becomes extremely significant, memorable and impassioned as it teaches us how to love a person other than you are obliged to do, such as your parents or relatives. You display your complete passion for the person irrespective of thei...

LOVE IS BEYOND LOGIC...

  LOVE IS BEYOND LOGIC… Love is an intriguing theme discussed by us in our daily life. It is surrounded by us and waiting for people to approach us with their feelings to showcase their support in the form of only one global emotion – LOVE. It could be the love of our friends, family or partners who wish to get attached with us and make our days special and enduring through challenges.  Let’s address the elephant in this article, “ WHY IS LOVE BEYOND LOGIC?”. I am certain there are people who are completely unequivocal about love being “ just scientific and it’s all in our brain”. I agree there is a scientific explanation behind our lust, desire and attraction, but the intention to make others happy and content in all our relationships even through the hard times is beyond logic and pragmatism.  “Love is merely a flow of energy, it connects and transforms us according to our needs and stays in us throughout the function of our life. It can neither be created nor destroyed...

  Ever wondered if you are an intelligent person or a hard-working one? There's nothing wrong with being either of them. Let me tell you that an intelligent person in simple terms would mean a person who has the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills. A diligent person would mean a hard worker. Now, which one are you? Are you the first one or the second one? Let’s analyze both and see which one we should be. Intelligence can be put into numerous ways : the capacity for abstraction, logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving etc. Sounds big I know. All of us would think, “ oh you are so lucky to have this much capacity! ”. Well let me tell you one thing, hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard. What this means is if you do not put effort or don’t use your capacity, you cannot go further. So use what you have and make the most of it. I’m sure all of us would now have an idea of what a...
