In this executive briefing, we’ll discuss how coordinated AI agents can support high-volume workflows, from service desk triage and case routing to cyber response, compliance, and mission operations. The conversation will focus on the decisions IT leaders can make today: which workflows are ready for agentic AI, how much autonomy is appropriate, what governance and oversight are needed, and how agencies can move quickly without added risk, tool sprawl, or vendor lock-in.

Government agencies are being asked to put emerging capabilities into operation faster while maintaining the security, governance, and reliability their missions demand. Meeting that challenge requires a trusted, adaptable foundation that connects data, applications, infrastructure, and operations from the enterprise to the mission edge. 

Modern public sector leadership requires delivering transformative capabilities at the speed of threat—without breaking security, compliance, or continuity. Achieving true mission velocity demands an open, resilient foundation that connects legacy assets to emerging edge and AI environments.

The 2026 Red Hat Government Symposium will examine how open platforms, intelligent automation, and AI-ready infrastructure can drive real-world mission outcomes with speed while minimizing risk. Through government use cases and practical discussions, you’ll explore how to modernize critical systems, govern AI, strengthen cyber resilience, improve interoperability, and deliver new capabilities with velocity.

 What you’ll gain:

• Practical approaches to move AI from experimentation into secure, governed mission workflows, including generative and agentic AI
• Strategies to automate infrastructure, compliance, and operations while expanding workforce capacity and reducing manual effort
• Architectural models for securing and managing data, applications, and systems consistently across cloud, data center, and edge environments
• Modernization pathways that improve efficiency, preserve mission continuity, and create greater flexibility across virtualization and hybrid infrastructure
• Engage in candid discussions with government peers actively solving the public sector’s toughest modernization challenges
