Illinois Virtual Digital Government Summit 2021

Join us at the Achieving Transformative Cooperation for National Defense Forum, where top military leaders, defense experts and policymakers will come together to explore the future of Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) and its impact on international security. This event will focus on achieving seamless sensor-to-shooter connectivity on the battlefield by emphasizing combined interoperability with global partners. Speakers will discuss the United States’ strategic approach, how to promote resilience and what’s being done to address intensifying global competition.

Current bureaucratic procedures in the Federal government have imposed an overwhelming paperwork burden on citizens and workers, amounting to over 9 billion hours annually. In December 2021, President Joe Biden issued the Executive Order on Transforming Federal Customer Experience and Service Delivery to Rebuild Trust in Government. Although past actions have laid the groundwork for service improvements, this new order recognizes the need for sustained focus, accountability, and improved delivery for the public's benefit. Service delivery should prioritize the needs of citizens. Through human-centered design, empirical research, behavioral science insights, and continuous engagement in service delivery, processes can be made more efficient, fair, equitable, and transparent. Government must harness technology to modernize services, ensuring they're user-friendly, accessible, transparent, equitable, and protective. In our Potomac Officer’s Club’s: Radiant Digital CX Imperative session, we will discuss how digital transformation strategies can help agencies as they redesign customer experience to align with the presidential directive, including enhancing transparency, removing inequitable barriers, and protecting customer data.

The Digital Government Summit brings together technology focused public-sector professionals with leading industry partners to connect on innovative approaches, get inspired and discover new technologies. Join us and let’s improve the future of government together!

Battle fields are constantly evolving and becoming ever-more digitally connected. As such, Cyber-Physical risks are more prevalent across our most critical sectors, and the threat landscape continues to expand. Moreover, Geopolitical events dictate that the only certainty is uncertainty. Against this backdrop, the United States Government and its military leaders are enhancing operational capabilities to mitigate risk spanning our complex infrastructure, particularly in remote locations. Groundbreaking technologies are enabling this effort, and specifically, the use of Kubernetes containerization technology is accelerating mission success and impact within these types of tactical environments “at the edge.” Join us for an engaging and insightful forum on how the ability to drive both the capacity and the speed at which data-driven decision-making in a zero-trust environment is reshaping and transforming the modern military landscape.
