We are excited to launch the first edition of our Pava GovTech Report series, analyzing global market trends, key players, and investment dynamics.

GovTech – tailored software and tech-enabled solutions for the public sector – is entering a high-growth phase, driven by digital transformation, rising citizen expectations, and government modernization.

The report provides a global overview of a market with expected growth of ~9% CAGR to 2030, supported by key drivers such as technology investments, smart city solutions, cloud-based software, cybersecurity, AI, and interoperable digital solutions.

Topics covered in the report:

• Global Market Dynamics: Growth toward a USD 1tn market by 2030, attracting international investors; Europe holds ~25% share.
• European & German Market: Strong public funding (EU funding > EUR 8bn; Digitization spending Germany EUR ~16bn in 2025), yet continued digitalization gaps.
• Smart City – our Deep Dive: A major demand driver requiring interoperable, secure infrastructure; procurement reforms create SME opportunities despite legacy barriers.
• Pava Provider Landscape: Overview of a fragmented ecosystem across platforms and operators, e-government, and specialized applications.
• Public Markets & Deals 2025: GovTech stocks underperformed sharply in 2025 (-28%) amid AI disruption fears and U.S. funding uncertainty. European dealflow is driven by PE-led consolidation.
