GovTech100 Highlights ClearGov in Top 5 to Watch

Hopkinton, MA – January 20, 2016 – Government Technology (GovTech.com), an award-winning magazine covering information technology’s role in state and local governments, announced today the inclusion of ClearGov Inc. in their top 100 companies focused on developing innovative solutions designed to improve and transform state and local government services.   ClearGov is highlighted as one of the “Top 5 to Watch” that “merit attention” and are “already writing the next chapter of public innovation.”

“We are delighted to be included in the inaugural GovTech100 as one of the most innovative companies in this emerging field,” said Chris Bullock, CEO of ClearGov.  “ClearGov has only been in existence for a mere eight months, so it is truly an honor to recognized amongst such successful and impactful companies at this early stage in our corporate story.”
The editors of Government Technology together with e.Republic Labs, a sister organization focused on civic innovation and new market entrants, have developed the inaugural GovTech100, a listing of the leading 100 companies focused on government as a customer, having developed an innovative or disruptive offering to improve or transform government, or having created new models for delivering services.

Seen as a market, government technology as a whole is an industry that accounts for $180 billion in state and local government alone, according to analysis by the Center for Digital Government. This new GovTech slice has come into its own, emerging as a stand-alone industry composed of hundreds of startup companies even after no fewer than 23 acquisitions, and having attracted $1 billion in private capital investment.
