About the Conference
Bússola Tech is excited to host the upcoming conference "LegisTech: Devolved, State and Local Legislatures," a pivotal event that aims to create a unique forum for exploring institutional modernization and digital transformation within Devolved, State, and Local Legislatures. This international conference is an essential part of our commitment to fostering dialogue on the crucial role these bodies play in bridging the gap between the state and citizens, and ensuring they align with modern standards of efficiency, transparency, and accessibility.
The conference will feature a rich tapestry of discussions across several core themes, including the broadcasting of legislative sessions and meetings, the integration of crowdsourcing in the legislative process, and the transition of legislative operations to the Cloud. These discussions will delve into how these legislative bodies can leverage technology to enhance citizen engagement and make legislative environments more inclusive and representative.
Key aspects of the conference include exploring the modernization of Inter-Parliamentary Paradiplomacy, implementing open data strategies, focusing on Human Resource development, and improving the drafting of legislation to reflect contemporary societal and technological realities. Additionally, the conference will address the importance of user experience in legislative solutions, emphasizing that all modernization and digital transformation initiatives should ultimately benefit citizens.
Bússola Tech anticipates that this conference will provide a comprehensive exploration of the challenges and opportunities in modernizing devolved, state, and local legislatures across the globe.
