The GovTech sector is notoriously harder to break into than FinTech.

Breaking into GovTech means you’re up against:

a) incumbents with established contracts, and
b) bureaucratic hurdles

In contrast, FinTech startups can enter more easily by tweaking existing solutions.

For GovTech, the real challenge lies in aligning with government missions.

The bottleneck is addressing complex problems while ensuring the right safety and compliance measures are in place.

The solution?

In Episode 3, John Russell, CIO of Northrop Grumman, advises GovTech startups to identify how their solutions can fit into government processes.

He firmly believes this is how they’ll succeed.
