Upcoming GovExec Events

Federal healthcare systems are under increasing pressure to do more than deliver care. They are also responsible for managing risk at an enormous scale. Billions of dollars are lost each year to fraud, waste and abuse, yet in many cases, the cost of investigating and recovering improper payments exceeds the value of the claims themselves. This has led to a persistent “pay and chase” model, where questionable claims are paid first and only reviewed later, if at all. With increased scrutiny from oversight bodies and initiatives like the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, agencies are under pressure to rethink this approach. The challenge moved beyond simply identifying fraud to doing so early enough, and efficiently enough, to make intervention worthwhile.
In this webcast, we’ll explore how federal healthcare leaders are shifting fraud detection closer to the point of payment by rethinking data architectures and distributing decision-making. We’ll discuss how AI and edge computing can help agencies move from retrospective review to real-time risk assessment, reducing improper payments while lowering the cost of enforcement. The conversation will focus on how bringing intelligence to where decisions are made can strengthen program integrity without slowing down care delivery.

VeeamON Tour brings the flagship NYC experience around the U.S. You'll hear from the builders, operators, and leaders navigating real-world AI risk with a focused experience designed for the unique needs of the federal community.
At VeeamON Tour DC, you'll gain:
- Proven strategies for strengthening cyber resilience across federal environments
- Guidance on enabling secure, compliant AI adoption in line with government standards
- Insights into protecting data across hybrid, multi-cloud, and on-prem systems

The annual Defense One Tech Summit brings together senior defense leaders and innovators from across the services and combatant commands to examine how the Pentagon is building, scaling, and governing these critical technologies. Discussions will explore enterprise AI and data infrastructure, distributed and tactical intelligence, real-world autonomous operations, autocratic approaches to AI, startup-driven innovation, and the convergence of space, missile defense, and nuclear deterrence. Together, these conversations will highlight how the U.S. can move faster from prototype to production, identify remaining barriers, and better align government and industry to compete and win in an era of accelerating technological competition.

As AI rapidly transforms government operations, agencies face both unprecedented opportunity and growing complexity, especially when it comes to managing vast geospatial data.
This exclusive half-day event offers a clear path forward. Join public-sector leaders and Google experts to learn how geospatial intelligence, cloud solutions, and agentic AI are enabling smarter, faster decisions across energy, infrastructure, and public safety.
Through interactive demos and expert-led sessions:
- Explore Earth AI and foundation models
- Discover how Gemini for Government reduces analysis backlogs
- Gain insights into transportation monitoring and mission resilience
Join us to discover how organizations across energy, infrastructure, and public safety are transforming ambitious ideas into real-world impact.

As America marks 250 years of bold ideas and ongoing progress, a new chapter is being written - one powered by data, AI, and the technology behind every mission-critical decision. Join SAP and a community of government and enterprise leaders for a dynamic full-day event exploring what it means to modernize, innovate, and build for the next 250 years.
From reimagining how the American workforce operates, to securing the supply chains and defense infrastructure that underpin every mission, to unlocking the full potential of AI in government, this is where vision meets execution. Hear directly from practitioners and leaders who are driving change, explore real-world outcomes already making an impact, and walk away with the insights and connections to accelerate what's possible in your own organization.
We’ll explore:
- How leading agencies and enterprises are modernizing workforce operations, closing skills gaps, and empowering their people to deliver mission-critical results
- The strategies and technologies keeping defense, supply chain, and industrial infrastructure mission-ready in an increasingly complex world
- How AI and intelligent data are transforming government operations from the field to the front office and what's already working today

As agencies continue to modernize their cloud environments, the FedRAMP ecosystem is entering a new phase. With the emergence of early authorizations through the FedRAMP 20x initiative, agencies are beginning to operationalize a model centered on automation, machine-readable authorization packages, and a growing trust network across government. Together, these shifts are reshaping how agencies evaluate, adopt, and share secure cloud capabilities, creating the potential to move at speeds that traditional authorization models could not support
This year’s summit will focus on the leaders and practitioners driving this next stage of adoption. Sessions will explore how agencies are integrating machine-readable authorization packages into their security processes, building trust frameworks that enable authorization reuse, and putting automation into practice after years of groundwork across the federal cybersecurity community.
Now in its eighth year, GovForward's Summit: FedRAMP brings together federal, state, and local government leaders alongside industry experts to explore the policies, technologies, and operational shifts shaping secure cloud adoption. Through keynote presentations, panel discussions, and interactive roundtables, attendees will gain practical insights into streamlining the Authority to Operate process, advancing cloud security, and preparing for the next era of authorization in the federal enterprise.

Join Us In-Person on Tuesday, July 28 at 9:00 AM EDT
This regional event brings together state, local, and higher education (SLED) leaders to explore how modern cloud platforms and Agentic AI empower organizations to break down data silos and transform service delivery. Today, secure cloud systems act as autonomous agents that can independently execute complex workflows on behalf of residents, students, researchers, and public servants.
Through hands-on exercises, real-world use cases from leading municipalities, and insights from top research departments and universities, this event will prove that AI is a measurable driver of speed, reliability, and resilience. Attendees will discover how cross-sector collaboration and enterprise-grade AI can accelerate mission outcomes, strengthen cybersecurity, and build unprecedented public trust across civic and academic communities.
