What is the "GovTech" sector?

Government technology commonly known as "GovTech" or "E-governance" is the technological infrastructure that government departments use to do their internal work or provide services to their "customers", i.e. citizens. This transformation to digital platforms focuses on reducing time and costs in all types of administrative procedures and improving the veracity and certification of the information exchanged.
