INDEMAND – DEMAND DRIVEN CO-CREATION FOR PUBLIC ENTITIES

To ensure and continuously improve the delivery of public services, governments need innovation, often developed by private stakeholders. In many cases, these companies develop their solutions on their own, without really interacting with public bodies, and then try to convince them to buy their products and/or services. Unfortunately, this lack of collaboration often results in solutions that are not fully adapted or are not sufficiently profitable. Startups and SMEs end up with stillborn products and with the conviction that the public sector is not an interesting market (although it is estimated to be worth €2,000 billion in Europe, that is almost 20% of the EU GDP).
