AFCEA Bethesda's Monthly Breakfast

Data-Driven Government Roundtable

We are experiencing a data explosion. With the digital revolution and introduction of mobile, wearable, Internet of things, and other sensor technologies, by 2020 data production will be 44 times what it was in 2009, big data and analytics technologies and demands for data transparency and sharing provide opportunities for government to do business more effectively and collaboratively.

Join us on December 3 and learn how senior government executives are harnessing massive amounts of data to advance mission, increase efficiencies and gain insights previously inaccessible. You will also hear about the data governance and security challenges and the impact of open data legislation like the Data Act of 2014.
