UK Tech Expert Joins Intellect Public Sector Council to Work With Government on
IT Issues
LONDON, 2013-09-30 11:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
GovDelivery, a leader in cloud-based public sector communication solutions,
announced today that Director of Government Solutions for GovDelivery Europe,
David Worsell, has been elected to join the Intellect Public Sector Council
(PSC). The PSC is an industry leadership forum focused on working with the UK
Government to harness technology to deliver better public services. Senior
representatives from both large and small companies comprise this forum for the
technology industry to engage strategically with Government on cross-cutting
issues.
David manages the European division of the world's leading provider of
government-to-citizen communication solutions. He has helped guide
GovDelivery's rapid growth in the UK, which now serves more than 60 local and
central government organisations, including GOV.UK, HMRC, DoH and many local
authorities. With over 2.5 million UK citizen subscribers, GovDelivery is the
largest dedicated public sector digital communications platform in the UK.
Unique collaboration across these public sector clients enables them to
dramatically increase their outreach and achieve channel shift goals.
'We are delighted to have David Worsell onboard. This is an important time for
the UK technology industry, and we are looking forward to working with
GovDelivery and members of the PSC to help to unlock the potential of
technology to transform public services,' stated Naureen Kahn, Head of Public
Sector Programme - Intellect UK.
Having worked at the intersection of Government and digital engagement
technologies, David brings firsthand experience of the challenges and benefits
of working at the cutting edge of the government's digital agenda. This gives
him a critical understanding of the obstacles that Government must overcome to
engage the public and ultimately meet channel shift goals.
With his expertise, David will provide a critical perspective on Government IT
strategy as well as serve as a voice for small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) on
the Council. The 'Digital by Default' agenda is changing the way Government
procures and delivers IT, presenting an extraordinary opportunity for
innovative technology companies. David has a technical background and
considerable business experience gained from providing information management,
electronic publishing and digital communication systems to the public sector.
'As one of the UK's leading IT trade bodies, Intellect UK are influential in
shaping future government IT policy, and I'm honoured to be elected to join the
group,' said David Worsell. 'When smart technology companies collaborate with
Government organisations, the results are often the development and procurement
of more innovative solutions that provide real value for the taxpayer. I am
excited to share the insights from our experiences in providing technology and
services that meet the government's digital agenda.'
