What’s In Store for 2024

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has seen exceptional growth in technology. Never have governments and workforces been asked to do so much, so quickly. As a result, public-sector leaders are seeking transformation improvement in service delivery for their citizens and residents. Technology has unlocked countless opportunities for growth, collaboration, and improvement among the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s agencies, departments, and beyond.

Public sector leaders are looking for ways to modernize their efforts-with technology likely to be at the forefront of their minds after the last several years of challenge-inspired innovation; accelerated further by ongoing world events. Information technology modernization and how it supports digital transformation remains significant. What will shape our initiatives going forward? What do we need from our leaders to get the job done? And how will technology, data, transformation, and workforce continue to evolve?

Public Sector Network’s Government Innovation Pennsylvania in-person event will bring together public sector leaders across all levels of government from the commonwealth and region to share their innovative ideas and cutting-edge initiatives and projects. This one-day event provides an ideal meeting for networking and sharing best practices-join the conversation!
