The festival’s online event in March
Digital Kick-Off
Information about the Digital Kick-Off 2026 will follow soon.
The first of our core activities of the year is the Digital Kick-Off, which offers a packed programme of inspiring examples of creative bureaucracy in action. It is a free online event for everyone across the globe with jury-selected sessions from our global Call for Participation – kicking off a new year of public sector innovation and offering an additional platform for forward-thinking ideas and projects prior to the live festival in Berlin.
The Digital Kick-Off 2025 was a huge success! With 30 Project Showcases and 15 Digital Workshops from 15 countries, the event brought together a global audience. 1,500 participants from around the world tuned in and over 6,500 votes were cast in the Community Voting. Watch all Project Showcases, talks and interviews that took place are on our YouTube channel here.
