Welcome to the 2026 TASSCC Annual Conference. This year our conference will celebrate the TASSCC community and encourage collaboration between our agencies and our industry partners.

The TASSCC Annual Conference is Texas’s premier event for state IT leaders, partnering to advance education and networking among professionals supporting information technology for Texas public sector and higher education.

Last year’s event welcomed over 850 attendees, including 350+ government sector employees.

The 52nd Annual TASSCC Conference celebrates the spirit of Texas IT innovation with the theme “Big Tex, Bigger Tech: The Future of Texas IT.” Bringing together technology leaders, public sector professionals, and industry experts, this conference will explore the emerging trends, transformative technologies, and forward-thinking strategies shaping the future of IT across Texas. Hosted in the home of the iconic Texas State Fair, attendees will gain valuable insights, build meaningful connections, and discover how innovation is driving smarter, more connected communities for years to come.

State government technology leaders are under increasing pressure to modernize legacy systems, improve constituent experiences, strengthen cybersecurity and deliver measurable business outcomes — all while navigating budget constraints, workforce challenges and rapidly evolving technologies.

In response, many states are expanding their digital services strategies by adopting new approaches to service delivery.   Leveraging human-centered design, agile development, data-driven decision making and emerging technologies such as AI, these teams are helping governments deliver value faster and more effectively than traditional approaches.

Join the Center for Digital Government for a conversation with state leaders who are building digital services organizations across the country. Drawing on lessons learned from successful state initiatives, this webinar will explore how governments are organizing for innovation; accelerating the delivery of high-impact services; and balancing rapid transformation with enterprise governance, architecture and security requirements.

You'll gain insights into:

• The evolving role of Digital Services organizations and approaches in state government
• How leading states are delivering business outcomes and improving constituent experiences faster
• Strategies for integrating innovation with enterprise architecture, governance, and cybersecurity
• Emerging opportunities to leverage AI and other technologies to modernize service delivery

As states continue to rethink how government services are designed, delivered and measured, the Center for Digital Government brings together the leaders and practitioners at the forefront of this transformation. Register today to hear directly from state executives driving the next wave of digital government innovation.

The 2026 CUNY IT Conference focused theme is: AI Disruption and Opportunities. Artificial intelligence is reshaping higher education at extraordinary speed, altering how we teach, learn, conduct research, make decisions, design services, and imagine the future of our institutions. For many, AI represents disruption in its most immediate form—challenging long-standing assumptions about expertise, authorship, assessment, labor, privacy, and trust. Yet it also offers new opportunities to improve access, enhance student support, expand creativity, streamline operations, and open new possibilities for teaching and learning.

AI is already changing the conditions under which higher education operates. The question is not whether institutions will respond, but how. This year’s conference invites the CUNY community and its partners to share ideas, experiments, concerns, strategies, and discoveries that can help us navigate this moment with intelligence, imagination, and care. If you are exploring how AI is disrupting familiar practices—or creating meaningful new opportunities—we encourage you to join us for this year’s CUNY IT Conference!

This is an invitation-only event, open to higher education institutions only. For more information or to request an invitation, please contact Jennifer Caldwell.
