Tune in May 29 at 9 AM ET

Building a data-driven, digital government with streamlined operations and efficient service delivery requires modern tools, so filling skill gaps and overcoming legacy system challenges is critical in order to execute a successful digital transformation strategy. The way people interact with federal agencies and navigate important resources is transforming as more e-government platforms are built, online processes are automated and open data initiatives are supported. How else are leaders harnessing the power of technology to make data-based decisions that will meet the public’s needs? Join Nextgov/FCW for this virtual workshop to learn more about the impact of data and digital tools in the public sector. 

Attendees will come away from this event with a better understanding of: 

  • Strategies for breaking down data silos and managing digital risk 
  • How data and digital tools can reduce operating costs 
  • The role of data in building a robust digital transformation strategy
