Central to the approach is co-production with the citizen.\r\n Part of the Scottish Government\u00e2\u0080\u0099s Digital Directorate, CivTech\u00e2\u0080\u0099s approach is helping transform public sector engagement with tech and innovation, delivering significant benefits to public services, producing genuine uplifts for the Scottish economy - and along the way, making lives better.\r\n Across the country there are problems public sector organisations would like to solve and in the current environment the need for smart, efficient and effective products has never been greater. The Scottish Government is aware innovation is a good way to create them and is committed to ensuring a large part of its tech spend goes to innovative businesses - whatever stage they\u00e2\u0080\u0099re at, or size they are..\r\n This is where CivTech comes in.\r\n The CivTech Innovation Flow is designed to create products as quickly and effectively as possible, and uses a true Accelerator model at the heart of its Innovation Flow model. For you \u00e2\u0080\u0093 whether you\u00e2\u0080\u0099re an individual, team or company \u00e2\u0080\u0093 it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s an opportunity to take on a Challenge, solve it, and win contracts with a blue-chip public sector organisation. You\u00e2\u0080\u0099ll build a product, and a business to take it as far as possible. Because here\u00e2\u0080\u0099s the kicker: the Challenges we issue aren\u00e2\u0080\u0099t \u00e2\u0080\u0098single organisation\u00e2\u0080\u0099 problems \u00e2\u0080\u0093 most of the problems we are solving exist worldwide.\r\n In short: Open Challenges are set. Any organisation, team or individual can respond. Applications are assessed, and shortlisted proposals go into an Exploration Stage where they\u00e2\u0080\u0099re developed further together with the Challenge Sponsor and the CivTech [for which participating applicants are paid]. The best go through to the Accelerator \u00e2\u0080\u0093 a period of intensive work to create the solution, and through CivTech\u00e2\u0080\u0099s unique business growth workshop system, a business capable of taking the product to the world.\r\n Please visit our website for information on CivTech and how to get involved:\r\n https://www.civtech.scot/how-to-apply-civtech-11\r\n https://www.civtech.scot/civtech-11-challenge-4-help-prevent-detect-and-support-musco-skeletal-conditions",
