Four exciting tracks for 2022

GovTech Trends

The future is hard to predict, but we can make guesses based on identified trends.

Culture of Innovation

Every innovation challenge is as much or more about culture as it is technologies.

Technology Ecosystem

The cutting-edge software and devices that will define the communities and governance of tomorrow.

Policy Landscape

The policies at the federal, state, and local levels both constrain us and create incredible opportunities.

Need ideas? Here are some topics we'd love to host sessions on:

Procurement, equity and inclusion, opportunity mindset, innovation offices, workplace culture, civic-mindedness in entrepreneurship, engaging business schools in govtech, govtech case studies, conversations about emerging technologies, technological interoperability, open source data structures, ARPA funding and innovation, ordinances and rules around transportation, EVs, permitting, digital services, website requirements, etc.

Stay ahead of the curve!

Attendees can expect a dynamic mix of panels, lightning talks, interactive trainings, and demos. Breakout sessions will include research, case studies, and critical discussions for state & local government leaders, established company representatives, govtech entrepreneurs, and more.

We are actively monitoring the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the State of GovTech is subject to possible postponement or change.
