Enabling governments to reimagine service delivery through emerging tech & forward-thinking digital policy.

The Wadhwani Centre for Government Digital Transformation (WGDT) assists government officers in adopting cutting-edge technologies, such as AI, to enhance public service delivery and policy effectiveness.

Established in April 2021 through an MoU with the Principal Scientific Adviser and the Capacity Building Commission, WGDT collaborates with ministries and officials to co-create scalable digital solutions, ensuring governance becomes more responsive, data-driven, and citizen-focused.
