You’re invited to the launch of Monmouthshire County Council’s GovTech challenge.

Businesses of all sizes are welcome to come along and share ideas to help alleviate some of the pressures affecting vulnerable communities.

Monmouthshire County Council has secured £1.25million of GovTech Catalyst funding to develop solutions aimed at helping to break the cycle of loneliness and the challenge of limited rural transport faced by many people in Monmouthshire. The funding comes from the new £20 million fund from the UK Government to encourage technology firms to deliver solutions to complex public sector problems.

GovTech encourages technology firms to bring innovative solutions to public services that, once proven, can be introduced in other areas helping grow UK businesses while providing benefits to society as a whole.

Places are limited to register to secure your place. This event will be followed by a networking lunch, finishing at 13:45.
