The discussion panel will raise the topic of the necessary modernization of local governments and public administration. We will introduce the concept of new municipal management, which is based on the principles of efficiency, cooperation, and service availability. We will look at reforms such as the graduation of competencies, the sharing of services between municipalities, and the integration of offices to improve the citizen's experience. We will also discuss the involvement of the non-governmental sector and inspiration from the private sector towards a more efficient and sustainable public sector.

How should Slovakia use the potential of artificial intelligence for its development? The discussion will focus on the vision of the state, the needs of education, the role of industry, and concrete steps for successful and responsible implementation of AI. We will raise issues of the digital divide, ethics, infrastructure, and data management. A key topic will also be the plan to integrate AI into education, bringing new curricula, AI tools into schools, and support for teachers starting in 2025. The aim is to prepare pupils for the digital future and ensure that AI does not create new inequalities. The discussion will offer a cross-section of the attitudes of the state, the private sector, and the Department of Education on using AI to benefit people, the economy, and public administration. Slovakia can become an active player if it acts in a coordinated, responsible, and value-driven way.
