The Local Government Income Generation Conference 2023

The Local Government Income Generation Conference 2023
For over a decade, local councils have faced funding cuts from central government while encountering an increased demand for vital services. According to the National Audit Office, since 2010 there’s been a real term fall of 26% in the spending power of councils, this has only intensified in recent years due to the financial strain of the Covid-19 pandemic and cost of living crisis. To deal with this deficit, local authorities are under pressure to diversify revenue streams through innovative commercial activities to bring long-term financial health and sustainable services to their communities.

Workloads at the Tactical Edge Forum

February 8, 2024 | USA

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.
