Engage with partner demos, share insights, and enjoy a networking lunch to explore AI solutions in action, while seeing how agencies are tackling mounting pressures to do more with less.
- Exiger's AI-powered platform enables agencies to map vendor and supplier networks to the deepest tiers, proactively surface hidden risks, and model actionable remediation strategies to support mission-critical decisions.
- Granicus' AI innovations are helping agencies enhance trust and enable efficient digital service delivery through conversational AI, advanced analytics, and tailored communication.

Almost all (95%) government agency leaders at all levels say they plan to invest in emerging technologies over the next five years, including generative AI (35%), yet only a fraction achieve measurable and sustainable service improvements.
Part of the challenge is reexamining the metrics used to track improvements in customer service (CX); after all, what is measured should change depending on whether government customers are being assisted by human agents or agentic agents.
Learning Objectives:
- Develop actionable strategies for leveraging analytics and advanced technology integration
- Translate digital initiatives into sustained improvements in stakeholder engagement, transparency, and service reliability
- Navigate legislative mandates and rapidly changing policies with confidence, aligning program delivery with measurable agency goals
City and county governments across the country are facing tighter budgets. Accompanying the financial pressures, these smaller government entities are facing rising service demands and trying to cope with chronic staffing shortages. In this turbulent landscape, agentic AI offers a way to improve services, cut legacy IT debt, and provide assistance to overwhelmed employees.
Counties and cities already use AI to improve public safety, optimize urban planning and transportation, and streamline internal operations. Using pilot programs, they can experiment with AI-generated public agents to identify constituent-facing solutions and scale them as needed.
Learning Objectives:
- Establish priorities for areas of immediate attention for agentic AI pilot programs
- Evaluate the steps to set up an AI public agent program, including the metrics to measure both cost savings and user outcomes
- Explore strategies for connecting key data sources and removing barriers that may prevent your public agent from serving residents comprehensively
