The 2017 Edition of Forum PA, the annual appointment which promotes the modernisation of the Public Administration, has finished. The main theme of this event has been the relation between technological innovation and sustainable development.
Bit4id participated in Forum PA because one of its services, Signing Today, has been selected for the “Forum PA Award 10×10 = 100 projects to chance the Public Administration” as one of the more effective solutions to promote a Public Administration without paper.
More than 300 different projects have competed in the contest, but between these only 10 for each of the 10 categories have been recognised by the committee as really creditable. So it’s a big goal to be in the shortlist and to have received an acknowledgement for Signing Today, the Bit4id service to collect electronic signatures on digital documents with legal validity.
The award ceremony took place in Rome at the Convention Center “La Nuvola” on May 25 at 3 pm. There was a 22% higher turnout than the previous edition. About 17.000 people took part in the event.
“After SMAU in Naples, this has been another opportunity to present Signing Today in one of the most important events in Italy. We decided to participate because we are sure this solution could improve the dematerialisation processes in the Public Administration and, overall, every time is required the digitalisation of documents with legal validity – stated Felice Acierno, Digital marketing specialist and Bit4id spokesman at the event – the acknowledgement received at Forum PA confirms that we are doing a good job.”
