iGA launches eGovernment Excellence Award 2025 The Information and eGovernment Authority (iGA) has announced the opening of submissions for the 13th edition of the eGovernment Excellence Award, a national competition recognising digital innovation across public, private, and non-profit sectors.
Entries will be accepted from Wednesday until June 28 via the official award platform www.egovaward.bh. Participants are invited to showcase their best practices, platforms, applications, and ICT initiatives that advance digital transformation.
Diverse categories
This year’s awards span multiple categories, including Best Website, Best Practice in eParticipation, Best Integrated eServices, and Best Applications for Smart Devices. Other honours include Best Project for Digital Transformation, Best Utilisation of Artificial Intelligence, and Best Work Environment for Digital Innovation.
A Citizen Award also invites individuals to submit creative digital ideas or initiatives that enhance eServices or improve access and usability for the public. Submissions must be new entries that did not win in the 2023 edition.
Focus on innovation
iGA officials noted that the awards reflect the Kingdom’s commitment to fostering a culture of digital excellence and innovation.
The Best AI Utilisation category, for example, highlights how organisations use artificial intelligence to enhance operations.
Similarly, the Best Work Environment for Digital Innovation award celebrates policies and internal cultures that enable creative, future-ready solutions in institutions. Private sector entities and NGOs can compete in the Smart Devices App category, in support of the national initiative to streamline digital services across the MyGov, AlTajir, and Bahrain mobile applications.
Briefing and support
A dedicated information session will be held soon for interested applicants, with the date and venue to be announced by the iGA. Participants are encouraged to review eligibility criteria and category requirements on the award site before submission.
