The Digital Future of the Public Sector: IVI on a Study Visit to Athens

The Institute for Artificial Intelligence of Serbia took part in a three-day study visit to Athens, focused on the digital transformation of the public sector, innovations in e-governance, and the application of artificial intelligence.

Milana Vitas, a patent and intellectual property engineer at the Institute, was a member of the Serbian delegation. During the visit, participants had the opportunity to explore the latest practices and strategic directions implemented by Greece as part of one of the most dynamic e-governance transformations in Europe.

The study visit was organized by ReSPA, in cooperation with the National Centre for Public Administration and Local Government of Greece (EKDDA) and the Greek Ministry of Digital Governance. This initiative is part of a broader effort to strengthen institutional capacities and foster intergovernmental knowledge exchange among EU and regional countries.

Key topics discussed during the visit included:

• Laying the foundations for digital transformation;
• Developing digital strategies and digital governance;
• Applying artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and new technologies.

We thank the organizers for the invitation and the opportunity to contribute to the ongoing dialogue on improving public administration through innovation and technology.
