As the state of New York continues to navigate an era of unprecedented change, this year’s Innovation Showcase is dedicated to fostering a landscape of innovation that pushes New Yorks public services towards increased efficiency and effectiveness, with a diverse workforce that is future ready.
This year’s program will feature leaders from New York’s civil service who will come together and share their experiences and lessons learned with piloting new and innovative programs, transformation, modernization, equitable access to services, leveraging legacy technologies, data-driven government culture, and engaging more actively with communities.
