LabX on the EPSA 2023-2024 Info Day

8 September 2023

LabX was the 2021 European Public Sector Award (EPSA 2021) winner in the «Innovative Public Administration» category, in which the id.gov.pt app was also distinguished with a «Good Practices Certificate». Because of that, LabX was invited to participate as a speaker in the second session of the EPSA 2023-2024 Info Day, which took place on the 7th of September.

This relatively informal event, organized by the European Institute of Public Administration (EIPA), was meant to provide information to potential future candidates to the EPSA awards. Therefore, EIPA invited former winners and judges to share lessons learned and good practices during the application process.

Applications for the 2023 edition are now open and until 1 November 2023. Public entities can apply for three different categories: (i) Innovation in Public Administration; (ii) Green Transition and Sustainability; (iii) and Digital Transformation.

We would like to remind you that, with a biennial format, the EPSA awards are designed to honour European public entities that stand out in terms of innovation and efficiency in their service delivery.
