Track 10: Governing Digital Economies: Public-Private Sector Perspectives

ICEGOV 2025 welcomes the participation of representatives from industry and the public sector to present recent trends and developments, innovative solutions, practical experiences, or research and development efforts related to the conference theme. Moreover, in this edition, the Track speaks to new economic models and industry developments and their implications for governance. As the digital economy evolves, it creates opportunities for socio-economic growth but also raises new policy and regulatory issues, such as new forms of competition and inequality.

This Track welcomes policy and practice papers designed to enable outreach and impact, stemming from case studies, research projects, or other significant digital governance attempts by the public or private sector and written to include non-academic audiences. Submitted papers should be structured to facilitate policymaking and industry consideration, enclosing relevant findings and recommendations for the theory and practice in digital governance. Papers should provide enough background for the readers to understand the problem and convince them about the importance of the topic. At least one of the authors of a paper submitted to this Track must be from the respective fields: industry or public sector.
