Digital transformation is more essential now than ever for state and local governments, as well as higher education institutions. Now, as technology leaders in government enter an era of uncertain budgets and tightening pursestrings, leaders are continuing to chase modernization and digital expansion as a potential solution to one of their biggest challenges.
In addition, citizens continue to clamor for a better digital experience, meaning government agencies and universities are required to modernize and transform at the same time, all while trying to keep up with — and embrace — emerging technologies like artificial intelligence.
This virtual summit will bring together technology leaders from across higher education, as well as state and local governments to explore the ongoing challenges they face while embracing IT modernization and digital transformation. Leaders will gather to discuss improving digital services, modernizing technology, embracing change and developing a workforce to support future-ready growth.

As large-scale generative and agentic AI systems have moved from experimentation to operational deployment, artificial intelligence has become a defining priority for federal agency leaders and U.S. policymakers alike. AI is no longer a future capability — it is actively reshaping how government delivers services, manages risk, and advances its core missions. The United States now sits at a pivotal moment: competing not only to adopt AI at scale, but to define the rules, norms, and governance frameworks that will shape its global use. And under the Trump administration, federal focus has sharpened on sustaining and extending American leadership in AI to promote economic competitiveness, government effectiveness, and national security — while ensuring these systems are deployed responsibly and in service of the public good.
