Upcoming Amazon Web Services (AWS) Events

Imagine what’s possible tomorrow, today.
Imagine for education, state, and local government is
designed for leaders who are eager to learn how they can better achieve their
institution or organizational mission, improve the efficiency and operations of
their organization, and be inspired by the “art of the possible” through cloud
and AI technology. Imagine is built around public sector leaders sharing real
stories: what they did, what worked, and what they learned. Hundreds of state,
local, and education leaders will be there exploring how AI and cloud
technology is transforming the way agencies and institutions serve their
communities, from enhancing constituent self-service experiences with
intelligent chatbots, to automating document-heavy processes, to predicting
student outcomes without writing code, to freeing up institutional resources
through tools like AI-powered grant generators.
Bring what you learn on the main stage to life with
hands-on, interactive demos with experts you won’t meet anywhere else. Think
outside of what you’re doing today. How can AI-powered chat bots enhance
constituent experience with improved, self-service access to information? When
AI can extract, classify, and process data from documents, automating processes
that traditionally rely on paper forms and records- what efficiencies will that
allow your agency to explore? How can you utilize Amazon Sagemaker Canvas to
predict student performance without writing any code? With a Grant Generator
that creates a comprehensive outline that can be modified with ease, what
resources does that free up for your educational institution? Dive in, look
ahead.
Please register with your .org, .edu, or .gov email
address, as the event is tailored for the public sector audience.

AI is opening real doors for justice and public safety: faster investigations, smarter resource allocation and better outcomes for communities. But to capture that value, agencies need something most don't have yet: a data strategy that connects AI adoption with CJIS compliance from the start.
The agencies moving fastest aren't choosing between innovation and security. They're building both into the same plan — ensuring criminal justice information stays within authorized boundaries while giving their teams room to put AI to work where it matters most.
Join us for a practical conversation about building an AI-ready data strategy that keeps CJIS compliance baked in. We'll explore how leading agencies are standing up enterprise AI approaches, maintaining control of criminal justice information without creating bottlenecks and setting up governance that supports innovation rather than slowing it down.
You will learn:
- A framework for adopting AI and meeting CJIS requirements as part of the same strategy
- Data architecture decisions that make AI adoption smoother (and which ones create friction later)
- Practical governance approaches that give teams room to innovate while keeping sensitive data protected
- Lessons from agencies about what's working and how to apply it in your environment

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.
