Critical support from Horizon Europe
Between 2024 and 2025 the OECD Observatory of Public Sector Innovation (OPSI) €1.5 million grant from the European Commission (EC) under the Horizon Europe-Work Programme 2021-2022 “Culture, creativity and inclusive society“.
Between 2016 and 2018, OPSI undertook another project on “Making Innovation a Consistent, Reliable and Strategic Resource for Governments” with the support of a €1.5 million grant from the European Commission (EC) under the Horizon 2020 (H2020) Work Programme, “Europe in a Changing World: inclusive, innovative and reflective societies.”
These projects enabled OPSI to explore the “how” of public sector innovation by conducting research, engaging governments, connecting innovators and providing thought leadership on the topic. The resulting evidence, resources and networks help governments respond to the open innovation, digital government and good governance needs of the 21st century.

Catalysing European innovation through technical assistance
OPSI regularly receives support through the Technical Support Instrument (TSI) of the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Structural Reform Support (DG REFORM), since the launch of TSI in 2021. This instrument enables OPSI to provide tailored technical support to advance the design and implementation of reforms in Member States.
