Procurement is an important tool that governments can use to build domestic capability. This is particularly the case for digital technology and services. On this panel Agile Digital CEO David Elliot, Reason Group CEO William Scheer, and Future Skills Organisation CEO Patrick Kidd discuss ways in which governments can ensure that digital capability is diffused across the economy.

This is a panel discussion that looks not only at the way governments can use procurement as a capability development tool, but also how best to build and retain the skilled workforce that will service these technology needs.

David Elliot contributed a paper titled We are fumbling Australia’s digital sovereignty.

William Scheer’s paper was titled APSLabs could be the ultimate GovTech sandbox.

Patrick Kidd’s paper, written with colleague Ishtar Vij, was titled We need a common language for digital skills.
