GOVTECH MARKET OVERVIEW

The global govtech market size is projected at USD 825.49 Billion in 2026 and is anticipated to reach USD 3090.93 Billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 15.8% during the forecast from 2026 to 2035.

By combining the words "government" and "technology," the term "govtech" refers to initiatives to digitize (and digitalize) public administrations through cutting-edge technological solutions that permit remote use of the public administration services (such as social security identity verification online, government ID verification, etc.). The adoption of eKYC for government accounts based on online authentication, electronic signatures, and identity is the main foundation of this policy. This expression, which is linked to the FinTech expression, was first used.

Similar to FinTech, GovTech businesses develop and provide software and technology to address the demands for streamlining, modernizing, and optimizing the sector's operations, procedures, and activities (i.e., government ID verification)

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Economic Disruption To Challenge The Market Growth

The world is undoubtedly changing due to digital technology, and COVID-19 is hastening that transformation. The impact of digital transformation on company models and industry structures is significant. Governments continue to face unique difficulties as a result of the pandemic, which has resulted in unprecedented requests for social assistance as well as a health crisis accompanied by a severe economic disruption.

LATEST TRENDS

Digital Transformation to Boost the Market

State and municipal governments' digital transformation was accelerated by 2020. Due to need, services were moved online, and many government regulations were overturned. A significant improvement in work-from-home skills convinced many people who had before doubted their productivity. The need of citizen involvement has never been greater as local citizens have relied on trustworthy authority to help them through challenging times.

Through data, analytics and automation, IoT offers the public sector the chance to alter services. The Internet of Things, to put it simply, is any device that is seamlessly capable of sending and receiving data and is linked to the Internet. Data can be quickly mined and analyzed once it is networked, which is more than enough to completely transform how citizens get governmental services.

• According to national e-governance departments, over 62% of public services are now digitally accessible, reducing in-person administrative requests by 48%.

• As per government innovation councils, adoption of data analytics in policymaking increased by 37%, improving decision response time by 29%.

DRIVING FACTORS

Demand for Technological Advancements to Propel the Market Growth

Because end users are demanding more technological advancements, the global market is anticipated to grow quickly. A further advantage for the market will come from increasing investments in launches, partnerships, and other strategic initiatives. Additionally, it is anticipated that government attention is shifting more and more toward promoting urbanization and industrialization, which will fuel market expansion.

Traditional software, on the other hand, makes a significant contribution to productivity and benefits greatly from ICT spending. Mobile devices and cloud computing are establishing themselves as new venues for distributing the most recent software tools and apps.

Blockchain- Based Digital Government to Augment the Demands

A blockchain-based digital government may increase confidence and accountability while securing data, streamlining procedures, and reducing fraud, waste, and abuse. A distributed ledger that is cryptographically secure allows for the sharing of resources between people, businesses, and governments in a blockchain-based model of governance. By removing a single point of failure, this system safeguards private information belonging to citizens and the government.

• According to digital transformation authorities, smart governance programs expanded across 54% of municipalities, enhancing citizen engagement levels by 41%.

• As reported by public sector reform agencies, open-data adoption rose by 33%, enabling 26% faster public information access.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Unreliability and Time- Consuming Resource Set Up to Impede the Market

The procurement procedures used in innovation mechanisms are seen to be unreliable and dangerous. It takes a lot of time, energy, and resources to set them up, and the outcome is unpredictable. Public institutions avoid taking part in public procurement of process innovations not only due to risk perception but also because they believe the work at hand is too challenging and the issue at hand is too complicated to be resolved.

• According to national cybersecurity agencies, nearly 44% of government bodies faced delays due to data protection compliance requirements.

• Based on public workforce assessments, around 38% of government departments report insufficient digital talent for GovTech system deployment.
