Idaho Digital Government Summit 2023

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.

FSTGov’s first foray into the government developments across the Southeast Asian region is set to shed a light on the digital innovation and pipelines that are not only modernising each nation individually, but also show notable levels of transnational cooperation unique to the association that enable strategic delivery. Held where many consider the digital hub of the APAC region, the Inaugural FST Government ASEAN Summit 2023 in Singapore will trace the shift from a sector that solely focused on ICT – mainly infrastructure, telecommunications and network security – to one that now incorporates a total digital economy and society transformation.

Space Mobility is an important component of Space Systems Command’s efforts to bridge the gap between military buyers and new space companies. Commercial innovation is outpacing the demand signal from government, and we need to identify and secure the technologies that will fulfil our modern-day warfare needs. SpaceCom has built a well-established, international constituency and has become the influential force for connecting government agencies with commercial experts. By partnering with SpaceCom, Space Mobility can access this target-rich, pre-developed community.

The Digital Government Summit is a wonderful opportunity each year to engage Ohio’s IT community. Whether state or local government, small agency or very large, we all face similar challenges and share common goals, from IT workforce recruitment and development to cybersecurity and meeting the rapidly growing demand for digital government services. We have so many opportunities ahead and I look forward to collaborating with my colleagues at the Summit to innovate and elevate our services to Ohioans.
