FSTB organises exhibition to promote digitalisation of public service among departments through procurement

Organised by the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau (FSTB) and co-organised with the Government Logistics Department (GLD) and the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC), an exhibition and sharing session titled "Seizing the Opportunities: Digitalisation of Work Process and Data Management - Matching Your Needs through Procurement" was successfully held on August 9. The exhibition attracted about 600 officers from more than 60 bureaux and departments and over 20 Heads of Department to visit. They explored digital technology solutions concerning 18 technology areas showcased by 40 innovative technology exhibitors.

The FSTB took the lead to organise the event with a view to helping government departments expedite and streamline their work processes and process data with a digitisation mindset and relevant solutions, thereby providing public services that are more targeted and based on scientific principles to bring about a fresh experience for the public.
