What’s In Store For 2024

The Public Sector Network is partnering with the Government of Alberta and Ministry for Technology and Innovation to deliver this years Public Sector Innovation Showcase.  

Alberta’s public service continues to transform every layer of its processes and services in response to emerging technology and customer experience innovations. This continual growth creates both challenges and opportunities for Alberta’s public servants to deliver for its citizens. There is also ongoing importance being placed on ensuring public servants can prioritize their own professional development in this ever-changing environment to be best suited to deliver for its citizens. Being at the forefront of the opportunity areas for innovation is paramount.  

Now is the time to share, grow, and connect on all things technology and innovation to ensure that across Alberta’s government, there is a collaborative and dynamic workforce being fostered. Impactful and values-driven partnerships and development opportunities that prioritize innovation will ensure positive outcomes across the public sector.
