The area of Electronic Government has up to now been tackling important problems for administrations and societies such as service provision, automation in the public sector, interoperability and common standards, information systems, security and authentication and legal issues. Moreover, researchers and practitioners have started to tackle Open and Collaborative Governance issues, such as Big, Open, Linked Data (BOLD) for Governments, opinion mining and sentiment analysis in Governance and advanced interoperability infrastructures and systems. The proposed project Scientific Foundations Training and Entrepreneurship Activities in the Domain of ICT-enabled Governance (Gov 3.0) will go beyond the existing state-of-the-art in analysing developments from the public and private sector towards establishing the new, important scientific domain of Government 3.0 (ICT-enabled Governance).Gov 3.0 will contribute to the development of ICT-enabled Governance by developing new methods for road mapping research priorities, new curricula for teaching at pre-graduate, post-graduate and company executive levels, new approaches for fostering entrepreneurship attempts (e.g. Startup companies based on Open Data) and a novel Massive Online Open Course that will be available and maintained during and after the implementation of the project.The consortium consists of five Universities and three Enterprises. The choice of the partners was made in terms of the covering of the multidisciplinary issues concerning the interrelation of the expertise of each consortium member to the neighbouring scientific domain that might be needed towards the finalisation of the project. The envisaged impact of this proposal relates to the establishment of Government 3.0 as a vivid scientific domain, encompassing Electronic Government, ICT-enabled Governance and Policy Modelling and support.

The Gov 3.0 project aimed to establish the scientific basis for digital government and deliver the main corpus of knowledge in digital government 3.0 as the new generation of digital government towards data-driven decision and policymaking. The impact of the Gov3.0 project relates to the establishment of Government 3.0 as a vivid scientific domain, encompassing Electronic Government, ICT-enabled Governance, and Policy Modelling and support.
<< Background >> The Gov 3.0 project aimed to establish the scientific basis for digital government and deliver the main corpus of knowledge in digital government 3.0 as the new generation of digital government towards data-driven decision and policymaking. The impact of the Gov3.0 project relates to the establishment of Government 3.0 as a vivid scientific domain, encompassing Electronic Government, ICT-enabled Governance, and Policy Modelling and support. << Objectives >> Gov 3.0 contributes to the development of ICT-enabled Governance by developing new methods for road mapping research priorities, new curricula for teaching at pre-graduate, post-graduate, and company executive levels, new approaches for fostering entrepreneurship attempts (e.g., Start-up companies based on Open Data), and a novel Massive Online Open Course that is available and maintained during and after the implementation of the project. << Implementation >> The project organized and participated in numerous workshops and conferences, including the organisation of an annual conference (Samos Summit) and Summer School (opengov), where many domain experts engaged by giving their input and evaluated the results. To establish a common understanding among the partners and the wider community, exchange activities have been delivered through joint conferences. << Results >> The Gov3.0 project's resulted in the Government 3.0 roadmap design, the development of new pre-and post-graduate joint curricula on ICT - enabled Governance, a novel Massive Online Open Course, and new approaches for fostering entrepreneurship attempts accompanied by an entrepreneurship competition and entrepreneurship modules. Additional results are a scientific book and a Ph.D. to the Digital Governance Science Base, and the establishment of a broader and stronger community on the field.
