The public sector can play a decisive role in boosting the impact economy. In all the Nordic countries the public sector is a major market player. What if public procurements were impact-based? Instead of buying activities and services, the public sector would buy results, welfare for the people and the planet. We think that is a better way to solve the societal challenges we face. If you agree, Public Procurement Lab is here to help.
We want to improve collaboration and dialogue between public, private and third sectors. We believe that the best and most effective solutions to big societal challenges can only be reached by co-operation. We help the public sector maximize their impact through outcome-based, responsible, and innovative procurement from the most promising impact startups.
Our Public Procurement Lab has been developed in close cooperation with key stakeholders and will run side-by-side with the accelerator program.
By creating more demand, public procurements can play a vital role in developing more innovative, sustainable and effective products and services. Services that are good for the people and the planet.
Public Procurement Lab participants get tools and support for conducting procurements that truly make a difference. We help the public sector understand the impact they can have through procurement and connect to impact startups delivering innovative solutions. Through our Public Procurement Lab, public sector participants have the first opportunity to to meet our impact accelerator’s promising startups.
