Message from the CEO |
 |
 Welcome
to GovTech 2009, the State Information Technology Agency's
fourth annual conference and South Africa's pre-eminent public
sector ICT engagement of the year.
The theme of this year's conference, "Doing ICT for the
citizens", will be explored by leading and dynamic speakers who
will share their expertise, in-depth knowledge and their
experiences - in the form of case-studies and high-level
presentations, with lessons learnt on how to make
citizen-centric government a reality in South Africa.
This year's programme has been designed to have a wide variety
of experts from diverse backgrounds, from the private sector and
government both locally and internationally, who will share
their experiences in what is required to achieve measurable
service delivery outcomes - with value for citizens. We look
forward to your esteemed contributions in this regard.
GovTech 2009 will also take stock of commitments previously made
and provide some insights on the success and progress that has
made in the key ICT initiatives in the public sector. The
snapshot of international experiences, valuable lessons learnt
and conditions at a local and provincial level, should make for
enlightening discussion and debates in finding solutions to
address the challenges faced by government.
GovTech compliments SITA's other initiatives and programmes and
is one the organisation's contributions to promote knowledge and
information sharing, whilst fostering dialogue, debate and
discussion among various ICT role players.
I wish to thank all delegates for their continued support, which
makes GovTech the outstanding conference it is. Together we can
succeed in "Doing ICT for the citizens".
Kind regards
Moses Mtimunye
Acting CEO
SITA
