Higher education institutions face growing pressure to manage sprawling campus footprints efficiently while controlling operational costs and adapting to shifting student schedules. Without accurate, continuous occupancy analytics data, university leaders are often forced to make massive capital expenditure and building expansion decisions based on assumptions rather than actionable insights. Nova Southeastern University (NSU) tackled this challenge head-on by leveraging Lambent’s spatial intelligence platform. By integrating existing campus Wi-Fi and sensor data, NSU Florida gained continuous visibility into building and room usage. This data-first approach enabled leadership to optimize underutilized spaces, reallocate resources effectively, and ultimately avoid $100 million in unnecessary capital expansion and operational costs. What attendees can expect to learn:

Recent compromises of municipal water systems, including attacks targeting internet-connected programmable logic controllers and remote cellular modems, have highlighted the evolving cyberthreat landscape facing state and local utilities. Similar risks extend across operational technology environments supporting water, power and other essential public services.
Protecting these systems requires more than securing individual devices or networks. A defense-in-depth approach can help utilities control interactions across converged IT and operational technology environments, limit lateral movement and prevent a compromise in one system from spreading to other mission-critical technology.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify Utility Infrastructure Risks: Examine common attack vectors and lateral movement paths across water, power and related operational technology environments.
- Strengthen IT/OT Defenses: Explore ways to map dependencies, improve visibility and apply OT-safe microsegmentation and Zero Trust controls to sensitive systems.
- Improve Resilience and Compliance: Learn how automated containment can help maintain operations during an incident while supporting alignment with federal cybersecurity guidance and performance goals.

Who is this for?
For leaders who are past the pilot and into the harder question: what does it actually take to run AI at the center of the business, not the edge of it. If you're accountable for how your organization moves from experimenting with AI to depending on it, this conversation is built for you.What's in it for you?
Why is this different?
This isn't a product showcase, it's a working session for leaders navigating the same transformation you are.
Google covers where the industry is headed: the shift to an agentic enterprise and what it demands of the platform beneath it.
Strategy covers the layer that rarely gets boardroom attention until it stalls a transformation: the semantic layer that lets people and agents work from one true definition of the business. We'll also clarify terms the industry keeps blurring — ontology, knowledge graph, context layer, semantic layer — and what each is for. The rest of the afternoon is peer conversation, not a lecture.
Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) is a 6G technology that enables wireless networks to simultaneously transmit data and detect objects, essentially turning mobile networks into radar networks.
ISAC uses shared radio signals, infrastructure, and hardware to track, locate, and image objects in real-time, improving network efficiency and enabling new, high-precision services. It reduces hardware costs and saves spectrum resources by consolidating functions. It is considered a cornerstone of 6G, enabling faster, more reliable communication.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the system requirements to incorporate ISAC into your agency’s edge devices
- Delineate steps to maximize AI use in ISAC-enabled networks, including assessment of available databases and their cleanliness
- Determine what additional information needs to be gathered to utilize ISAC capabilities
The future of government depends on transforming today. Returning October 14–15 to Washington, DC, SAP Public Sector Summit brings public sector leaders together for two days of ideas, insights, and practical strategies for powering what matters next.

AI success is often isolated, limited to pilot efforts that tackle one specific challenge or workflow. AI pilots are most focused on getting the technology right; implementing an enterprisewide AI strategy requires alignment across leadership, workforce, procurement, and mission teams, though definitions of success, ownership, and ROI remain unclear.
How agencies can move beyond the isolated success in a pilot and achieve similar results across their organizations is more a strategic challenge than a technical one. It requires shifting from a use case to capability, from technology experiment to an operational effort, by prioritizing scalable infrastructure, robust data governance, and change management.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify organizational and work culture barriers that need to be addressed
- Review your agency’s budget and procurement activities to ensure funding is available as scaling up takes place
- Delineate your agency’s automation and AI priorities to maximize both effectiveness and impact
Today’s advanced 5G networks are the essential first step to create an intelligent digital fabric. They provide higher upload speeds and open network interfaces for developers to use. They also make networks more programmable and easier to automate.
While the future may be 6G, investments made today into building out 5G and 5G standalone (5G SA) networks will not be stranded; they enable AI apps today and will be incorporated into the rollout of 6G tomorrow.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the system requirements to incorporate ISAC into your agency’s edge devices
- Delineate steps to maximize AI use in ISAC-enabled networks, including assessment of available databases and their cleanliness
- Determine what additional information needs to be gathered to utilize ISAC capabilities
