The GovTech Alliance of Ukraine (GTA UA) has joined the implementation of the GovTech Glossary project — an industry-specific glossary designed to establish a shared language for government, business, the expert community, and international partners in the field of digital transformation.

The GovTech Glossary is not merely a collection of definitions, but a practical tool for aligning approaches, informing policymaking, and enabling the implementation of innovative solutions that work in real-world environments. The glossary includes over 60 definitions that combine Ukraine’s practical experience with standards and approaches of the OECD, the World Bank, and the European Union, complemented by examples from Ukraine and international practice.

The project aims to standardise the language of digital transformation, which is essential for effective collaboration among all stakeholders in the GovTech ecosystem — from developers and public-sector buyers of digital solutions to regulators and educational institutions.

The GovTech Glossary will be a valuable resource for:

• developers and procuring entities of digital solutions in the public sector;
• experts involved in shaping digitalisation policies;
• international partners working with the Ukrainian GovTech context;
• participants of educational programmes and new entrants to the GovTech sector.

The project was implemented by the Global Government Technology Centre in Kyiv  (GGTC Kyiv). The project’s information partners include GTA UA, CDTO Campus, and Digital Hromada. GTA UA also contributed directly to the development of the GovTech Glossary definitions, with active involvement from its member companies Kitsoft, MK-Consulting, and Strimco. Thanks to their hands-on experience, the glossary reflects real challenges and needs faced by the GovTech sector on a daily basis.

GTA UA thanks its partners for their cooperation and encourages the GovTech community to use the GovTech Glossary and share it with colleagues as a core reference tool for digital transformation.
