Submissions are allowed from any government department, agency or government-owned organization. Submissions are NOT permitted from technology vendors or technology services companies. Any such submissions will be disqualified. Eligible organizations can enter up to three submissions per year.
To be eligible, an initiative must have been launched during the period of January 1, 2024, through May 30, 2025. Only submissions written in English will be accepted. The project or initiative could be in any stage of development, from a pilot to a live product/service.
